Restaurant at Paris House Description
Whilst strolling through scenic Woburn Park you might spot a deer grazing lazily in the lush green turf and a charming mock Tudor styled building, which was originally created in 1878 for the Paris exhibition. Later this timbered structure was trundled over the Channel, to eventually adopt a new role as home to the Restaurant at Paris House.
After Chef-Owner Peter Chandler's twelve year stint as the first English apprentice under Albert and Michel Roux, it is not surprising to see that his cooking embodies the culinary ethos that runs among the French. Feast on some classic dishes such as Mediterranean fish soup with rouille and croutons; delice of salmon with champagne sauce, and roast rack of lamb with flageolet beans, celery and rosemary sauce. Refreshing desserts of banana en croute with rum and raisin ice cream, or hot raspberry soufflé make a delightful ending to the robust Gallic fare.
Sadly - after a long battle against cancer - Peter died in August 2009; however, his passion for cooking will always be remembered as well as the training and inspiration that he provided for many young entrants into the profession. The restaurant will live on in his inimitable style.

Your Reviews of Restaurant at Paris House
Erica (8 October 2009)
We just had lunch at the Paris House for the first time today. It was a special occasion as my little sister turned thirty. We had a wonderful time and the food was superb. I ate from the set lunch menu, which I thought was of great value at £25 including coffee and petit fours and had plenty of choice. I had smoked salmon and sea bass but did wonder if I should have had the pork belly which looked very good. Plus, I had to have the chocolate truffle cake, if only to be polite. However, my theory that chocolate is always the best option may not have worked in this case, as mom had the soufflé which looked amazing. The restaurant is in a simply stunning spot but, it was also really busy for a Thursday lunchtime which created a nice atmosphere. Plus, my three month old niece came too and the staff couldn't have been kinder. There was no awkwardness and they even offered to hold the baby. Five stars from me and we'll definitely be going there again.

We have dined at Paris House many times over the last twenty years. The location is stunning and we have greatly enjoyed the food and the service. Until Peter Chandler sadly passed away, we also enjoyed his 'entertaining' dining room visits. The present young chefs trained by him are doing a brilliant job and deserve support. We wish them every success for the future.
