Kuwait Dinner

Bailliage of Kuwait
January 21, 2023

Delectable French cuisine launches 2023 programme
" hosted at the residence of Her Excellency Claire Le Flécher, the Ambassador of France to Kuwait "

For its first event of 2023 the Bailliage was hosted at the residence of Her Excellency Claire Le Flécher, the Ambassador of France to Kuwait since August 2021. She is a Chevalier d’Honneur member of the Chaîne.

Ambassador Le Flécher received members and their guests in the lovely garden of the residence, before they indulged in a delectable and superb French dinner. The Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa under the management of General Manager Livio Faverio, who is a Maître Hôtelier, and his executive team catered a rich menu with produce and fruits from sea and land, inherent to French cuisine.

Delicious dishes commenced with scallops, celeriac and truffle jus. We moved on to a wonderful, colourful sight of a vegetable terrine artistically arranged. And continued with marvellous lobster ravioli, pickled leeks and tapenade croutons, interpreting the tastes of their elements in harmony.

Main course: succulent, tender rack of lamb with herbed breadcrumbs and curcuma. A delicate finale of arlette with cream, caramelised apples and dark chocolate followed. For those who didn’t know, they discovered that arlette was a kind of fine crispy tuile made of puff pastry and sugar.

The service brigade dressed in typical Parisian café style and the live piano and singing performance completed the French “joie de vivre” atmosphere. All in all, it was a splendid Gala event honouring its origins.

Vive la Chaîne!
