Got the chance to go to Granite in Paris last week and I was super impressed! It was the best one star I’ve been to, and I even preferred it over some 2*’s. I think it certainly had the potential to get another in some time. I forgot some of the sides and sauces but I’ll do my best to describe! Wine pairing accompanied the food nicely, with two out of seven being real standouts.
First post here so let me know if I’m missing anything!
Welcome bites – hummus w/lemon confit, guacamole, and a cod tartare
2nd welcome – Butternut squash with coffee foam
1st course – Zucchini Flower with veal tartare and Iberico Ham
2nd – Lobster dish with mushrooms. Chef’s speciality
3rd – Foie Gras “skewer”
4th – Amberjack with Koshihikari rice and yuzu
5th – pigeon with red wine reduction, raspberry, fig, and yuzu
6th – Pavlova
7 – The chocolate
Closing – truffles, and white chocolate stuffed with fig and black currant

I went back when Tom Meyer was head chef and its one of my favourite meals to date. Great restaurant, glad to hear it’s still good with the new chef.
How was service? I was there in May and its was v hot/cold
Looks 2 star
Didn’t love it when I went as a final meal before a flight home. The only memorable thing was dessert, unfortunately, which was decent but a relatively uninspired strawberry, black pepper, and meringue concoction.
Glad you enjoyed it though, the menu sounds super interesting.
