A little bit of butter about 1 full stick
A little bit of grand manier about 1 liter
A little bit of fire until it reaches 300 C.
Then finish with the cognac about half of liter

That was the most civilised crepe suzette cooking I’ve ever seen. 0:50 Even the cascading sugar from the spoon had a delightful pattern. Man has sophisticated skills.

Chef directions: "Next, a few drops (20ml max) of grand manier
Waiter: "Sure ..." - puts in half a bottle

[dklein]

"Couple drops of Grand Marnier" *pours in half of the bottle* 🤣

Don’t know how this video is both over edited and under edited at the same time, but ribs aside this was smooth operation. Caramel is a deceptively tricky skill w i t h o u t people staring at you

Had to look it up. 62 Euros or 67 USD for anyone curious.

Theatrical part of this dish cannot be overstated.

Might be expensive but hey, what an amazing and iconic dessert in a World temple of Gastronomy. I've experienced this a few times at the Ritz and it's a stunning dessert and not as simple as it looks. The flavours are superb and the theatre is magical. Nice one Luigi, you're an absolute star and hope to see you again very soon.

[Tranzlusent]

Every movement coordinated, very nice to watch

[haifa]

Why do I watch this in the middle of the night? STARVING!!

Excellent job Chef, looks incredible ❤

[michaelfelsinger-ki]

My favorite dessert, and I even learned to make it almost like Luigi ! But it's so expensive. I have to buy a bottle of Grand Marnier, a bottle of Cognac, then after a few months and that disappears, I start thinking of Crepe Suzette again, and a little voice in my head says 'that's $180 Australian' ! Okay. Tub of ice cream.

An amazing dish at a beautiful hotel 👌
I couldn’t recommend enough 🥂

[JonnySublime]

Where is the rest of it and why is it so expensive

[jorgetadeunago]

In French cuisine, crêpe Suzette is often considered one of the simplest desserts—and as a Frenchman married to a Suzette for the past 30 years, I have a special fondness for this crêpe! I’d also recommend another less sweet option: a crêpe with crème de marron à la Chantilly or even a Baba au Rhum, both of which are delightfully uncomplicated.

Are you sure we don’t need one more tablespoon of sugar…?

[jamesgreen]

I'm going to ask for one of these at Wetherspoons, they look lovely.

[JuanLopez-vflc]

Well done. I’ll pay it just for the effort and science put behind 👏
