Guéridon dessert service


Guéridon dessert service refers to the act of finishing a sweet preparation on the mobile trolley, before the guest, whether portioning a cake, flambéing fruit or composing an ice cream coupe. The waiter carries out the finish with delicacy, keeps the guéridon spotless and serves each plated dish. This gesture extends the ceremony of the meal to the very last mouthful, in the tradition of palace hotels.
