It’s no surprise Écriture’s delivery meals are luxurious – the two-Michelin-starred establishment has been serving decadent fare since 2018. Chef Maxime Gilbert, an alumnus of Amber, serves up French dishes with a Japanese twist.

The pandemic turned the F&B industry on its head, and with restricted seating and hours, most restaurants have had to offer delivery services – even Michelin-starred restaurants. Some came up with various solutions to offer diners as authentic an experience as possible, and a few began providing “almost ready” meals to which diners add finishing touches at home.

An extraordinary year calls for extraordinary recognition, and Écriture has been named the winner of 100 Top Tables new Finest Delivery award.

The restaurant decided to amp up its packaging and provide simple reheating instructions and a picture of what the plated dish looks like at the restaurant. The food is delivered in sleek bags with rose gold accents. The message is simple: enjoy your top-shelf delivery meal.

Hot items such as Brittany blue lobster, home-made gnocchi and Bresse chicken arrive warm, while the famous caviar tart and pâté en croûte travel well and are every bit as decadent as eating it on the premises. There are four types of desserts to excite the palate, too.

It must be said that nothing beats the experience of dining in a magnificently appointed high-scale restaurant, but if you’re after the finest delivery service money can buy, Écriture is one of your best bets.
