As winter fades into memory and the vibrant hues of spring emerge, LUMIÈRES JéJé's new lunch menu unveils a dazzling array of flavors to celebrate the awakening of nature.
Aptly named 伴天光 – Accompanying the Sunlight – renowned chef JéJé brings forth a culinary symphony, where each dish mirrors the exuberance of the season.
Salt crust baked celeriac, butternut pumpkin and black truffle
Wrapped in a salt crust cocoon and baked to perfection for 90 minutes, the celeriac reveals its savory essence, harmonizing with the delicate sweetness of butternut pumpkin.
This seemingly simple combination is elevated by the addition of black truffle, infusing the dish with rich, earthy aromas, earning its title as the 'Flower of the Earth.'
Foie gras terrine, green pistachio, pineapple jelly
In a delightful twist, pistachios impart their nutty aroma and subtle floral notes in a classic foie gras terrine.
Paired with the refreshing tang of pineapple jelly, and served with pistachio bread, this dish is akin to a gentle breeze on a spring day, invigorating the senses with its richness and freshness.
Slow cooked iced oyster, mint, lychee granita
Mint-infused lychee granita cradles fresh oysters, creating a picturesque scene reminiscent of a tranquil spring garden.
The cool, refreshing taste accentuates the oyster's natural brininess, offering a miniature landscape of oceanic flavors that captivate the palate.
Pigeon, foie gras, parsnips and baby corn bamboo
As nature reawakens, LUMIÈRES JéJé pays homage to the abundance of the season with a dish that marries the flavors of pigeon and foie gras with parsnips and baby corn bamboo.
Each element is meticulously prepared, showcasing the diverse and harmonious essence of springtime.
Plum wine jelly and raspberry sorbet
