French culinary history comes alive at Musee Escoffier de l'Art Culinaire, located inside the former home of famed chef and writer Georges Auguste Escoffier. A place of pilgrimage for impassioned foodies from around the globe, the museum pays homage to a legendary figure who many consider the founding father of modern French cuisine.

  • This museum is really nice. There is a space with beautiful chocolate statues. There is air conditioner inside. The workers are friendly. We liked it. They even have a game and a space for kids. We visited this place 3 weeks ago. There is a free parking near, and you can access the museum easily by walking. The city is well decorated☂️Very peaceful places. At the end of the visit you will be given a free special ice cream. There is an outside space, with tables and chairs to eat your ice cream🍧A must to visit😊
  • Wonderful small museum with some unexpected angles of chief’s life and nice place for children
