Restaurant Senderens, Paris

  • Alain Senderens is a leading French chef credited as one of the founders of Nouvelle Cuisine. He was the chef at Lucas Carton form 1985 until 2005. He famously claimed to hand back his three Michelin stars after the restaurant was relaunched, saying he could not charge an affordable price for meals while keeping up the standards Michelin required. As a result Senderens stated that the customers pay a third of the former prices, return more often, and the profits are nearly four times of what they were.

Sliders – Not just mini hamburgers

  • A slider is something very specific. It is not just a mini hamburger. It's a thin, thin slip of beef, cooked on a griddle with onions and pickles piled atop patty. The steam from the onions does as much cooking as the griddle. The buns are placed atop the onions, absorbing the pungent aroma and flavor.
