Description

Summary: A culinary journey of France and Thai flavors.

L'Orchidée is a beacon of gastronomy in Altkirch, seamlessly blending French elegance with the exotic flavors of Thailand. The restaurant's intimate bistro comfort sets the stage for a personal and passionate culinary experience. Guests can indulge in a surprise menu that unfolds through the evening, featuring standout dishes such as the delicately crafted blue lobster tom yam, a signature dish that redefines the traditional Thai soup with a blend of crustacean bisque and coconut milk. The main course of tender Aubrac beef filet is elevated by a tamarind meat jus and a delicate butternut squash royale. Desserts remain purely French, with a chocolate assortment that includes a soft brownie, fine hazelnut ice cream, and a remarkably rich mousse quenelle. The dessert tray from the previous year has been refined to a selection of three exquisite pieces. With a well-stocked cellar and an attentive, classy female service team led by Anthony Baumann, L'Orchidée offers a dining experience that is both a delight to the palate and a testament to culinary excellence.
