Caroline and Sophie, his 2 daughters, get caught up in the game very young. For them, it was simply out of the question not to perpetuate the work of 5 generations of cooks while it was their father’s dream to work with them and to be able to engrave “Rostang Père & Filles” on his restaurants’ front window. Thus this inescapable hand-over has been implemented progressively and naturally.

He also became the first Parisian Chef to create a « bistrot », le Flaubert, just across the corner of his gastronomic restaurant 25 years ago. This first experiment was a great success and has been followed since by plenty other openings in Paris. Today, there are 6 Rostang Père & Filles restaurants: the Michelin stared restaurant: Michel Rostang (Paris 17ème, France), two fish & seafood restaurants: Dessirier (Paris 17ème, France) and Jarrasse (Neuilly-sur-Seine, France), one traditional bistrot: le Bistrot d’à côté Flaubert (Paris 17ème, France), one modern bistrot, inspired by travels around the world: l’Absinthe (Paris 1er, France), one French Brasserie: Rostang (Atlantis The Palm Hotel, Dubaï, UAE).

Now associated with Yann Lainé – Michel Rostang’s right hand man for the last 20 years who supervises all the restaurants’ kitchens – and with Nicolas Beaumann – the chef of the gastronomic restaurant - Caroline et Sophie, the 6th Rostang generation, ensure a future devoted to the theme of youth, dynamism as well as transmission to the family restaurants.
