À la minute guéridon plating

À la minute guéridon plating refers to the act of finishing and composing the plate on the mobile trolley, just before serving it, under the guest's gaze. The waiter arranges the elements, adjusts the garnish and coats the sauce on the spot. This tableside finish, distinct from kitchen plating, guarantees an ideal temperature and turns the sending of the dish into a living moment orchestrated in front of the client.
