Cocktail reception at home

Savoury then sweet canapés, made on site and renewed through the evening. A full meal, standing.

Long-cut grilled aubergine, tomatoes and herbs

A real meal, not three nibbles

A standing dinner replaces the meal: several pieces per person, savoury first, sweet after, with a rhythm calculated so that nobody leaves hungry.

It is the format that works when guests need to move and talk — a birthday, a housewarming, a private view, a launch.

Assembled on site, at the last moment

Foie gras toasts with jelly, tartlets with pine nuts and chives, blinis with smoked salmon, hot pieces sent as they come: nothing has been sitting on a tray since the morning.

The pieces are finished in your kitchen and presented on slate. That is what separates a cooked cocktail from a delivered platter.

The service

Trays are renewed through the evening, following the arrival of your guests. The sweet pieces come at the end, without breaking the mood with a seated service.

How many guests

From a handful to 80. Above thirty or so, we agree on the number of pieces per person and the timing of each round — that is the difference between a smooth evening and a queue.
