Once the visitors have all left the Palace, the restaurant opens only on request for special dinners and exclusive events that are certain to be an unforgettable moment. The setting evokes all the grandeur of times gone by in the restored lounges, with historic menus, an exclusive re-edition of the porcelain of Marie-Antoinette and waiters in all their finery.

Alain Ducasse
