Hélène Darroze at the Connaught
For many years the restaurant at the Connaught in Mayfair has been one of London’s greatest gastronomic experiences. Now, Hélène Darroze, one of France’s most distinguished chefs, is at the helm of the Connaught’s kitchens and the Connaught’s love affair with gastronomy is entering a new, exciting phase.
The new restaurant in London, ‘Hélène Darroze at the Connaught’, like The Coburg Bar, has been designed by Parisian designer India Mahdavi.
Hélène is inspired by authentic regional and seasonal flavours, with roots in her native Landes region of South West France. With cooking in her DNA, she worked as Alain Ducasse’s right hand woman at the Louis XV restaurant in Monte Carlo.
Already the proud holder of two Michelin stars for her restaurant on the Left Bank in Paris, Hélène has recently received her first Michelin star for Hélène Darroze at the Connaught in the Great Britain and Ireland 2009 Michelin Guide. The London restaurant has also been awarded three AA Rosettes for 2009.
Hélène now oversees all cuisine at the Connaught in Mayfair, including Espelette, private dining and, when it reopens, the legendary Connaught Grill.
