12,000 Francs is an ingredient-driven European cuisine with a modern twist eatery and wine bar; the concept was inspired by Napoleon Bonaparte's bounty offered for anyone who could preserve food for his troops. Confectioner Nicolas François Appert eventually claimed the Emperor’s prize, storing food in wine bottles that were heated to boiling point before being sealed, adding another chapter to the complex history of preservation.

The menu boasts elements of both traditional and contemporary preservation methods. The menu is divided into relevant sections, including Picked + Potted, Smoke + Salted, Vacuum + Fire, and Sugar + Sweet.

12,000 FRANCS offers a great wine collection at very reasonable prices so every guest can enjoy a great glass or two with their meal and beyond meal times, especially the Sommelier Table (wine bar section) stay open after midnight.

CNN has selected 12,000 Francs as one of “The best new restaurants for 2017” in January 2017.
