The story
At La Machine à Coudes, the guiding force is Marlène, an epicurean driven by a quest for authenticity. She handpicks local products, exceptional ingredients, and natural wines that each tell a story of terroir and craftsmanship. Her dedication supports artisans who respect the land, setting the stage for a dining experience rooted in honesty.
In the kitchen, Chef Rémi transforms these raw treasures into works of art. A native of Guadeloupe, he infuses every plate with the warmth and creativity of his island roots, reimagining classics with bold, unexpected pairings. His modern cuisine balances finesse with a playful nod to his heritage, resulting in dishes that feel both refined and personal.
The restaurant’s space is designed for connection—a theater for innovative gastronomy and warm exchange. Each course becomes a journey, complemented by carefully selected wine or rum pairings. Marlène and Rémi extend a sincere welcome, inviting guests to experience cuisine that is alive, inspired, and deeply sincere. Their work earned a Michelin Recommended distinction in 2026, a recognition of the genuine, artful dining they have cultivated in Boulogne-Billancourt.
