Not only is it home, it’s colorful markets are a constant source of inspiration for Alexia. This Franco-American chef started her career at Ferrandi school of culinary arts and continued to hone her craft in places such as the prestigious Fauchon gourmet store.
After many years in the US as owner of her own French restaurant in New York State and then chef at Pomze restaurant in Paris , holder of Michelin’s bib gourmand , Alexia has happily found her place back in the Czech Republic as chef at Paloma Hotel, and fondly remembers the many years spent in Prague in the 90’s as chef at places like Circle Line brasserie, named best restaurant in Prague in 1997.
For Bagueterie Boulevard’s winter menu Alexia has chosen to share a customer favourite of Paloma; a sweet carrot and French vadouvan curry soup. Both baguettes on this winter menu use for inspiration products from the Paris Ile de France region of France. One has all the flavours of the iconic French onion soup made into a delicious baguette, and the other combines melted brie cheese from the region and seasonal pears with a strong French mustard dressing.
The Paris menu as imagined by chef Alexia Falcone can be enjoyed at all Bageterie Boulevard restaurants.
