The art of the table : «Service» à la française

The art of the table has its secrets. Is it easy to get lost? How can you create an elegant, thematic table without making mistakes?

A true synonym of social status during the reign of Louis XIV at Versailles, the art of the table was revived by one of the most enigmatic and controversial figures of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries: Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord. The diplomat used the arts of the table to coax, deceive or seduce his opponents. Today, the importance and appeal of this art remain the same: to seduce your guests even before they taste your dishes.

In a lounge privatized for the occasion, you will learn how to harmonize a table, whether for a business dinner, a festive meal or simply for friends. Beyond floral decoration, you will discover that the layout of the table is essential: it indicates the degree of attention paid to the meal that will be served.
