Nestled in the heart of the legendary Versailles estate, Le Grand Contrôle – les Airelles Château de Versailles offers a culinary experience unmatched with its new flagship event, The Grand Banquet. Conceived by the renowned chef Alain Ducasse, The Grand Banquet is not just a meal; it’s a full immersion into the opulence of the 18th-century, with majestically decorated halls illuminated by crystal chandeliers. Each guest is assigned an official title for the evening – will you be a Duke of Normandy or a Duchess of Orléans for the night? The festivities begin in the Salon d’Audience, where a glass of champagne accompanies exquisite bites while guests enjoy musical and operatic performances. Dinner features dishes such as line-caught sea bass, fennel and crayfish, poularde à l’Aurore, an array of cheeses, and a parade of desserts, all paired with meticulously selected wines, promising an unforgettable evening. During this immersive experience, guests are seated at a single elaborately decorated table, with tableware that highlights each dish. The Grand Banquet takes place on specific dates, offering a seasonal interpretation each time, so guests should be prepared for delightful surprises. Elegant dress code strictly observed
