Century-Old Le Beaulieu at Metropole Named “One of World’s Best”
|
|
(CPV) – The US website TheDailyMeal.com has singled out Le Beaulieu at the Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi as one of the ‘101 Best Hotel Restaurants Around the World’ in 2012.
The 80-seat contemporary restaurant was picked for the win after a search that spanned six continents, 40 countries and 80 cities.
"Although Le Beaulieu is the oldest, continually operated restaurant in Vietnam, we're right on the edge of contemporary appeal," said Kai Speth, the hotel's general manager. "These laurels are a testament to the fact that travellers can indulge one of the finest French meals in the world right here in Hanoi."
Le Beaulieu is most well known among Hanoians and residents for its social Sunday brunches, seasonal menus showcasing Groison’s own family recipes, and an impressive wine cellar stocked with more than 100 Grand Crus.
TheDailyMeal website is part of the Spanfeller Media Group, which also manages Forbes.com and its ancillary sites, including ForbesTraveler.com. According to TheDailyMeal, the list represents “restaurants that have consistently set the benchmark by which other hotel restaurants are measured.”
