To celebrate the fifth anniversary of Ritz Paris Le Comptoir, Chef Joris Theysset has reimagined the flan pâtissier as a rediscovered memory. Inspired by the palmier biscuit, this creation evokes childhood snacks and the generosity of the great classics, striking a subtle balance between tradition and elegance.
The iconic flan...
...of the fifth anniversary
Beneath a caramelised puff pastry with hints of toasted vanilla sugar, reminiscent of a palmier biscuit, lies a creamy flan filling with an intense vanilla flavour, enriched with a centre of vanilla caviar. The whole is set on a bed of crumbled puff pastry, to prolong the crispness and enhance the texture.
