The
Marcel Restaurant is a renowed point of gastronomy of São Paulo. Created
in 1955, it became a meeting point for business men, artists and
intellectuals, attracted by the menu with light dishes, with special
attention to the 21 kinds of soufflés.
Chef
Raphael Durant Despirite, third generation of the owners, is in charge of
the cuisine. In his resume is one year of Escoffier Scholl at Ritz Hotel
in Paris and he brought to the menu a renew with the creation of new
dishes, with no changes at the soufflés, part of the traditional French
cuisine.
The
executive lunch is very popular, made with the same quality of the house’s
menu but, on fast basis, at a fixed price including appetizers, main dish
and dessert. The lunch is usually frequented by businessmen and the dinner
by couples.

In a
comfortable environment with half-light, fire place and acclimatized
winery, guests can taste the flavor and creativity of the dishes prepared
with meat, chicken and sea food.
Dishes
The
Restaurante Marcel Jardins has the tradition to serve one of the best
soufflés of the city like the chicken, fois gras, vegetables and desserts
of banana candy, goiaba and those with savage fruits like raspberry,
cassis and currant liquor. In the menu, some dishes date from the XVIII
Century like the cassoulet and the bouef bourguignon. Besides the French
menu, the Restaurante Marcel also offers the “Author Cuisine”, signed by
the young chef Raphael Durand, grandson of the founder Jean Durand.
The menu
of the “Author Cuisine” is based on the Contemporary International
Cuisine, a little different from the concept of bistro; new options of
fishes, meats, birds and soufflés among others, can be tasted in a fixed
price basis by person or A La Carte. To join this new gastronomical trip,
the restaurant offers a large wine list with more than one hundred kinds
from the new and the old world.
The
“Author Cuisine” changes monthly and can only be tasted on dinners from
Monday to Friday, with some variations on the items according to the
availability of the products in the market.
