The Avant Comptoir du Marché, is the the last-born Avant Comptoir in Paris. Everyone may thus have an aperitif or eat on the ‘Zinc’ (t/n: countertop in popular French).
You will find our different pewter countertops at the Avant-Comptoir de la Terre and at the Avant-Comptoir de la Mer. Headcheese, jambon de Paris, pistachio-stuffed “paté”, white pudding, Toulouse sausage, Guéméné andouille. Also, the glass facade of this place-to-be in the Saint-Germain market foreshadows its spirit. Completely “charcuterie” oriented.
The countertop is over ten meters long. As in the others ‘Avant Comptoirs’, the titles of the dishes are hung on the ceiling above the market’s countertop. But more importantly, you will find yourself around a Zinc. Greetings to Yves Camdeborde!
Besides, this great chef adorns every single one of his establishments with a pewter countertop; he is one of the figureheads of bistrot cuisine. Among others, he has established the Bistronomie movement as a way to savor his wonderful cuisine on a countertop. Finally, the spirit is : competitive price, sincerity, and talent.
We like to perceive the door as a means to enter, not to get out. The different places are both convivial and welcoming. The Zinc becomes the pillar of every establishment (Avant Comptoir de la terre, Avant Comptoir de la mer…). It lays emphasis on a quite modern style, thanks to the cleaned line of the Edge profile n.19.
