Alain Ducasse's Benoit New York (3 of 7)
The tableware at Benoit is meant to illustrate the balance of tradition and modernity. Several pieces are sourced from around the world, with many signature elements made exclusively for Alain Ducasse: custom-made red coffee cups by Pillivuyt, steak knives by Opinel, colourful individual “cocottes” for side dishes, slate lion’s head soup bowls, as well as Alain Ducasse’s signature Cookpot – a Pillivuyt porcelain oven-to-table dish used to cook vegetables, which Alain Ducasse created with designer Pierre Tachon (seen above).
