Orgueil: The Perfect Fusion of Bistronomy and Gastronomy in Paris 11
Categories : Eating, published on : 1/23/25
Located in the heart of the 11th arrondissement of Paris, Orgueil reinvents the art of the table by combining the elegance of a gastronomic bistro with the exclusivity of a culinary speakeasy. From the moment you step in, the charm takes over, thanks to a refined décor that blends baroque style, spectacular floral arrangements, and a ceiling adorned with cosmic motifs. Sculpted lion-head lamps watch over the room, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere, perfect for a romantic restaurant. The experience culminates at the back of the room, where a one-way mirror hides a secret entrance to an exclusive speakeasy, where a lucky few can savor refined dishes while observing the kitchen at work, for an unforgettable gastronomic tasting.
Inventive, Eco-Responsible Cuisine by Eloi Spinnler
Under the direction of the talented chef Eloi Spinnler, a graduate of the Ferrandi school, Orgueil offers modern and creative gastronomic cuisine, highlighting fresh, seasonal ingredients carefully sourced from local producers. With experience in prestigious establishments such as La Tour d’Argent and Plaza Athénée, this young chef represents a new generation of chefs committed to anti-waste, balanced, and environmentally-conscious cooking.
A Menu Inspired by the 7 Deadly Sins
At Orgueil, indulgence takes the form of an audacious and original menu, inspired by the 7 deadly sins, presented in the form of tarot cards. Each dish, a true culinary masterpiece, invites you to succumb to a capital sin, with flavors that are both savory, inspiring, and refined.
To begin, the entrées will make your taste buds dance. The Croquetas de Cochon with sesame and cream cheese (€9), or the Grilled Broccoli Guacamole with chimichurri and black olives (€12), will take you on a journey of unprecedented flavors.
Fish lovers will delight in the Flame-Grilled Trout from Île-de-France, pears, and mustard (€13), or the Teriyaki Ray Wing with a lemon-beldi mashed potato, which are essential dishes to discover fresh ingredients crafted with mastery. The meats are just as enticing: the Confited Beef in Jus, pomegranate, and new turnips, or the Smoked Potato with soy egg and rhubarb (€9), pay homage to traditional cuisine subtly reinterpreted.
Homemade Desserts That Will Surprise You
The homemade desserts are a journey in themselves. Impossible to resist the sweet and salty chocolate brioche, served with labneh ice cream or the indulgent brownie mixing lemon and mousse-like chocolate. Each bite is a discovery that immerses you in a world of sweet delicacies, a nod to the flavors of yesteryear, while staying true to a modern approach to pastry.
