Le Plateau

Fruits de mer
et caviar.

The plateau is the way an evening should begin in a French dining room — a tiered tray of oysters, langoustines, shrimp and lobster on crushed ice, served with mignonette, cocktail, lemon, and a small bottle of crisp white. We build it to the table — one, two, or three tiers — depending on the company.
