Menus-Plaisirs Les Troisgros

We are thrilled to screen the new Frederick Wiseman documentary. It is exceedingly rare that one has the opportunity to see a new film from this revered master theatrically, and we are proud that we are able to provide that chance to Kingston. Don’t miss it… and clear your schedule: it’s 4 hours long!

Founded in 1930 in central France, the Troisgros family restaurant has been holding 3 Michelin stars for 55 years over four generations. Michel Troisgros, the third generation to head the restaurant, has turned over the responsibility for the cuisine to his son César, the 4th generation of Troisgros chefs. From the market to pick fresh vegetables, to a cheese processing plant, a vineyard, an organic cattle ranch to the backyard garden supplying the restaurant, Wiseman embarks us on a mouthwatering and sense-pleasing journey into the family’s three restaurant kitchens. An immersive experience, showing the great artistry, ingenuity, imagination, and hard work of the restaurant staff in creating, preparing, and presenting meals of the highest quality.

If you’re a fan of films about cooking… This is the king of them all.
