Across from the Palais Bourbon, Café des Ministères is the cherished dining room of the National Assembly's deputies, where regulars earn a personalized napkin ring. This elegant, thick napkin comes in the house's signature colors.
It is expertly woven at the Moutet Tissage workshop in the finest tradition of Basque linen, and bears the Protected Geographical Indication seal. A true emblem of sophistication.
Café des Ministères
At Café des Ministères, on rue de l'Université in the 7th arrondissement, tradition and quality come together with a modern outlook. Jean and Roxane Sévègnes took over this institution in 2019: he in the kitchen, Ducasse-trained, she in the dining room and in charge of the wine list. The couple has earned unanimous praise for the new life breathed into the classic French repertoire.
The menu is enriched with flavourful sauces and modern touches, with respect for the seasons and local produce. The chef's stuffed cabbage, crowned French champion in 2022, has become its emblem. With only around fifty covers, Café des Ministères quickly became an essential address in Paris: book ahead!
