A meeting of minds
The Chef’s Cuisine
In a setting where every detail has been created to leave a lasting impression, the Chef reveals the essence of his cuisine inspired by the terroir, nature, seasons, and encounters.
“The setting celebrates the cuisine at PUR’. A new environment that reflects its evolution over the years and its menu in constant motion"
- Chef Jean-François Rouquette
Our menus are created based on seasonal ingredients and are therefore subject to potential changes
Dining at the Chef's Residence
Alongside Ai Okabayashi, his deputy, and pastry chef Narae Kim (recently named "Pastry Chef of the Year 2024 Gault & Millau") Jean-François Rouquette tells the story of a cuisine committed to returning to its roots. Naturally guided by excellence and dictated by the exploration and search for unexpected flavours, it’s a journey over the moon.
Reserved for special guests, the Chef’s Table is the privileged vantage point over Jean-François Rouquette’s culinary art. From this podium, seven guests can experience the meticulous work in action.

THE SETTING
PUR' is the new, exclusive dining destination in Place Vendôme. Piece by piece, Hugo Toro crafted the new global identity of the restaurant, imagined as a private residence and inspired by the ensemble designers of the 1930s, whose custom-made creation spanned several creative fields.
HUGO TORO
A multifaceted artist, Hugo Toro studied at the Penninghen School of Interior Design, the University of Applied Arts in Vienna, and UCLA in Los Angeles.
DETAILS
Every element of the table setting was designed by Toro: these include napkin rings, single-flower vases, knife rests, butter dishes and knives as well as the candles, whose role is to theatrically signal the start and end of dinner.
