7 o’clock braised beef : a tribute to French tradition

There are dishes that tell a story and stand the test of time. At Café de l’Homme, an emblematic address nestled in the heart of the Palais de Chaillot, the 7-hour braised beef is a vibrant tribute to French gastronomy.

An exceptional address to sublimate traditions

In this unique setting, with the Eiffel Tower as a backdrop, every experience is tinged with magic. Café de l’Homme embodies the French art of living: elegance, conviviality and excellence. It’s here, facing one of the world’s most iconic monuments, that people come to celebrate, taste and, above all, savour the moment.

Chef Wilfried Graux, passionate about local cuisine and revisited traditions, offers a contemporary interpretation of dishes steeped in our collective memory. His braised beef is a perfect example.

Meat chosen with care

It all starts with the selection of the meat. The Chef does not compromise on quality: only cuts from French breeds renowned for their marbling, flavour and tenderness are chosen. The meat is chosen for its rich flavour, its ability to age well, and above all, its ability to transform under the effect of slow, controlled cooking.

As it cooks, the fibres soften, the juices caramelise, and the beef becomes melt-in-the-mouth, almost candied. The result is a rare texture, a deep flavour and an intense taste!

The art of accompaniment: carrots in all their forms

Candied in a hazelnut butter, carrots are meltingly soft and naturally sweet. Puréed, they offer a creamy, almost velvety texture, with a hint of mild spices. A subtle contrast that perfectly balances the richness of the beef.

A suspended moment in the heart of Paris

Whether you’re just passing through Paris or looking for an exceptional venue for a special occasion, Café de l’Homme welcomes you for a timeless experience. Facing the Iron Lady, every mouthful becomes a memory.
