A gastronomic experience

Far more than a meal — a fully composed experience

The poise of the plating, the perfume of the sauces, the unhurried gestures of the chef, the perfect interplay between dish and glass. Every Prémices evening is a quiet celebration of taste, of hospitality, of the French art of receiving.

We are not a marketplace. We design, coordinate and execute your evening end to end — the venue, the chef, the service, the wine — so that every detail is held in our hands, and only the pleasure of the moment in yours.

Our chefs

The rising names of French gastronomy

Every chef on our roster has earned their craft in Michelin-starred restaurants or grand Parisian hotels. We select them through a demanding audition — cuisson, plating, hygiene, punctuality and the elegance they bring to your guests.

We also collaborate with Michelin-starred chefs and Meilleurs Ouvriers de France for the most singular occasions. Our mission: to discover the next great names of French gastronomy and place their talent in the service of your most important evenings.

★★★★★

A truly beautiful experience for a business dinner of eight. The chef and the maître d’hôtel were faultless, the menu of the highest quality, and the attention to the smallest detail remarkable. I recommend Prémices wholeheartedly.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions about a Prémices evening

Prémices is a Paris gastronomy house. We design and orchestrate bespoke culinary experiences from beginning to end — the venue, the chef, the service, the sommelier, every detail. Whether you receive your guests at home or in one of our signature partner venues, your only task is to enjoy the evening.

We work with private hosts (intimate dinners, milestone birthdays, family receptions, celebrations with friends) and with companies (board dinners, executive retreats, galas, cocktails). Evenings range from a private dinner for two to a gala of six hundred guests.

Prémices is neither a caterer nor a marketplace. We are the producer of your evening: we choose the venue, compose the menu with the chef, coordinate the service, the sommelier and every aspect of the logistics. Without us, the evening would not exist as it does.

Every Prémices chef has worked in Michelin-starred restaurants or grand hotels. Before joining our circle, each one passes a full audition — cuisine, plating, hygiene, timing and the elegance they bring to your guests. For the most singular occasions, we also collaborate with Michelin-starred chefs and Meilleurs Ouvriers de France.

Our home is Paris and the Île-de-France — Paris itself, Neuilly-sur-Seine, Levallois-Perret and the surrounding arrondissements — and we travel to wherever your evening takes place: Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille, Nice, Cannes, Courchevel, Saint-Tropez and more than a hundred other destinations. Tell us your address and we will confirm.

Every Prémices evening is composed bespoke. The investment depends on the number of guests, the chef and venue chosen, the wine pairing and the level of service. We return a detailed proposal within 24 to 48 hours of our first conversation.
