If you're craving French food and France is just a little too far right now, hop over to the Hotel Bel-Air on November 10, 11, or 12. Chef Yannick Alleno from Le Meurice in Paris will be serving up truly unique and unforgettable dinners. This chef exchange is courtesy of the Dorchester Collection, a collection of five-star hotels that Bel-Air just recently joined in July.

The menu inclues:

Crispy hen egg yolks with "Golden oscetra" caviar to Jelly of acidulated green apple with vervain; Duck Foie gras poached with Chambertin wine to Chicken from "Bresse" with white truffle served four ways (including Chicken leg quenelles in strong consommé); and Preserved wild salmon from "Adour" served pink with melted cabbage with orange peels and cleared stock flavored with juniper berries to Melted chocolate and lemon cake acidulated with gold leaf.

The "French Culinary Week at Hotel Bel-Air by Yannick Alleno of Le Meurice" (um, that promo title is quite the mouthful) will cost you $150 per person per seating plus tax, gratuity, and wine. Truffles and gold dessert are not cheap, people. They're also offering a special room rate: $395 a night including continental breakfast.

To make reservations, call Hotel Bel-Air at (310) 472-5234 or visit visit the event site.
