An escape game for gastronomy buffs

Rallye Gourmand

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: wolfing down eyes-closed a cheese platter with Brie from Meaux, Saint-Nectaire, whipping up jam with the best jam maker in the world or finishing your plate handcuffed to your table neighbor, all very friendly of course...

On Sunday the 3rd of June, the Rallye Gourmand is back on the Parisian pavement. A sine qua non condition to participate in this larger than life escape game ? Age is not an issue, one of these two venues is accessible for families with kids, what is required is a big appetite.

This gourmet treasure hunt begins on boulevard de Sébastopol with an apron as competitor number. In teams of four, foodies will be challenged on tests worth of Fort Boyard through food shops and restaurants, encounters with artisans, producers, chefs and other participants passionate about eating.

At the end of the day, everyone is gathered for the award ceremony around a giant  snack. Yum.

Tops, if you have no partners in crime, we will find some for you right there.

Rallye Gourmand, on Sunday the 3rd of June 2018 from 2pm to 5pm. Starting at €19. Info and reservations www.rallyegourmand.com

Also check out the new restaurant of  Yoni Saada and the new version of Grégory Marchand’s  Frenchie wine bar.
