  Alain Passard Buys L'Archestrate and Renames It Arpège

  Arpège84 Rue de Varenne, Quartier des Invalides, 7th Arrondissement, Paris, France

  Starts 12/31/1986ESTIMATEDDate confidence: ESTIMATEDA target, not a fixed dateHow firmly the source words the date: confirmed, scheduled, estimated, delayed or unverified.Show all ESTIMATED pins73% CONFIDENCEOverall confidence: 73%How well the pin's source and references back up its dates.Weighted average of how firmly 2 references, the source included, support the pin's start and end times; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newestShow all pins from 50% to 74% confidence39.8 years ago

  Wikipedia^[1] states that "Passard bought the restaurant from Senderens in 1986" and gives no month or day, so the pin takes that year's last day. The event dated here is the change of hands and name, not a first opening - the room had traded as L'Archestrate before it.

  Alain Passard bought the rue de Varenne dining room where he had once cooked as a young chef from its owner Alain Senderens in 1986, and reopened it under his own sign as Arpège - a musical name, from a family of musicians. He later did something close to unthinkable for a three-star French kitchen and took red meat off the menu, rebuilding the cooking around vegetables from his own gardens.
