April came round thick and fast chez Cypsele, spring has finally sprung and what is the best season to cook in is really feeling like it, tender shoots and greens have started flicking off of our plates, foraging season kicked off, our road got dug up, we went to our first awards ceremony, new plates got designed , some celebrated their birthdays, some new faces passed through our kitchen, some secret talents got discovered, some bike crashes were had, some very dear friends came by and one of us even had their biggest hero come in and eat (not without getting way too startstruck to work of course). This April certainly has been memorable to say the mleast and it’s crazy to think that we are soon entering our 6th month

Yesterday our favourite intern (so far) Sean Kim, swooshed his last swoosh in the Cypsele kitchen. We’ll fondly remember him for his phenomenal spirit and humour much less so for his ability to not spill fishstock. Famed for his spontaneous rungis runs and completing any sidequest that was thrown at him, the best dog food maker we’ve had walk through our kitchen. Forever our GSL 👉👈
A little throwback to our opening party a few months ago, that feels like a lifetime ago. Thank you to all those that showed up. Captured on film by the one and only @mack_jamieson
They say January is the hardest month for restaurants and to be fair, it did try us.
Snowstorms, smoked-out dining rooms, slippery stairs and frozen pipes to name a few
But we managed to make a few publications, keep the spits turning and generally have a great time in the chaos that is running a restaurant.
Endlessly grateful for the guests who packed out our dining rooms when it would’ve been easier to stay home, and for the friends who showed up exactly when we needed them pulling extra shifts, problem solving, or simply arriving for their dinner with a few logs under one arm.
So thankful for everyone who’s been part of life within our four walls this month.
Looking ahead to the rest of the year with real optimism and the comfort of knowing that if ever in need…
Mike will always bring the wood.
Recent shoot with Cypsèle in January.
They keep evolving in the best way.
They’re one of the youngest and most vibrant talents in Paris right now.
Don’t miss them at the beginning of their journey.
