Our Story
"Born from a singular obsession — to create the most extraordinary dining experience in the world."
From a Dream to a Destination
Aurore was born in 2018 when Chef Laurent Dubois returned from a decade cooking in Tokyo with a singular vision: to create a restaurant where classical French mastery met the precision and mindfulness of Japanese philosophy.
Opening in a restored 19th-century Haussmann building on Rue de la Paix, Aurore earned its first Michelin star within fourteen months — the fastest in the guide's history for a debut restaurant.
Today, Aurore hosts over 8,000 guests per year, operates a private dining programme, and has been recognised by every major culinary authority in the world.
