I love French classics! Strictly speaking, Café de Paris steak is a Swiss invention from Geneva. Nowadays, however, the dish can also be found in many brasseries in Paris. I love the sauce in particular – ideally without tarragon – and the fries. Why not swap the meat for a vegetable? Celeriac is perfect for this.
