Le Céladon: star-studded dinners and an exceptional New Year’s Eve for a festive and refined December

When night comes, Le Céladon becomes the confidential restaurant for gourmet aesthetes. In December, festive flavors are the order of the day, with the Chef’s suggestions, imbued with tradition and modernity. On December 31st, an exceptional menu will mark the stroke of midnight with elegance and emotion. This spot is one of our top recommendations for celebrating New Year’s Eve in the heart of Parisian chic.

This typically Parisian chic restaurant in the 2ᵉ arrondissement is just steps from the hustle and bustle of Opéra and Place Vendôme. Le Céladon is an exceptional address offering a rare experience. As evening falls, the light becomes softer, the tablecloth-covered tables lend themselves to confidence, and the plates tell a story, that of sincere, precise and inspired French cuisine, where the product is king and the gesture, just right.

December under the Christmas lights

Throughout the month of December, Le Céladon pays tribute to the spirit of the holidays with evening suggestions by Chef Grégory Gbiorczyk, at the crossroads of tradition and creation. Each dish tells the story of winter with delicacy: truffled poultry, creamy root vegetable velouté, pearly fish with fragrant beurre blanc, or gourmet desserts with notes of citrus and spices.

Far from a fixed menu, these suggestions evolve, guided by the season, the market and the inspiration of the day. What never changes is the quality of the produce, the rigor of the technique and the French attention to detail. A refined score, discreetly orchestrated by the wait staff, whose natural elegance is reminiscent of the great houses of yesteryear.

An emotional New Year’s Eve of tradition

On Wednesday December 31, the year comes to a close with an exclusive New Year’s Eve menu, conceived as an ode to pleasure. Each dish is a celebration: langoustine, caviar, game, grand cru chocolate… all ingredients treated with respect and subtlety. Far from the showy, it’s the sincerity of the flavors, the mastery of the cooking and the fluidity of the service that leave a lasting impression. The atmosphere is conducive to conversation and intimate toasts. The dining room, chic without ostentation, is the image of the cuisine: elegant, precise and demanding.

One leader, one vision

At the helm, Grégory Gbiorczyk breathes new life into Céladon. A former chef at Christian Constant’s Violons d’Ingres, then Executive Chef at the Cercle de l’Union Interalliée for over 13 years, he combines classicism and audacity with precision. Trained in pastry-making, he never forgets sweetness, even in savory dishes. In 2023, he will head up the kitchens at Le Molitor Paris, before making his mark at Le Céladon.
His vision? Contemporary French cuisine, respectful of the seasons, open to innovation without ever denying its roots. Each dish is constructed as a conversation between terroir, technique and pleasure.

An evening house for rare moments

In the evening, Le Céladon offers hushed luxury. A “grande maison du soir” like few others in Paris, where you dine without hurry, where the wine is chosen with care, and where the cuisine tells more than just a recipe. In December, this house becomes the ideal setting for sharing, celebrating and remembering.
