Dining room at La Tour d'Argent, Paris, franceAndré Terrail takes the helm after the recent death of his nearly legendary father Claude. The menu is still composed of the legendary specialties of this well-established institution such as canard au sang---over 800,000 have already been served. Fabled cellar, with thousands of pricey bottles and a few affordable ones, too. A la carte prices are stuck in the stratosphere, but even this monument with all its history has to bow to the times, so the luncheon menu has actually dropped to €65.
