The story
Comice is a modern cuisine restaurant at 31 avenue de Versailles in Paris's 16th arrondissement, holding one Michelin star for 2026 for its high quality cooking. Canadian couple Noam Gedalof, the chef, and Etheliya Hananova, the sommelier, run the room together.
Noam Gedalof, formerly of Astrance, cooks product-driven contemporary French food that changes with the season. Etheliya Hananova, ex-Sergent Recruteur, looks after guests and a wine list focused on grower-producers.
A recent five-course menu opened with a gougère in Mornay sauce and moved through line-caught bass carpaccio, golden gnocchi with black trumpet mushrooms, and lamb cooked three ways. Dessert was a white peach sorbet with Champagne mousse, then a chocolate soufflé. Sylvie Coquet porcelain and starched white tablecloths set a classic table.

History
High quality cooking
Despite its bourgeois trappings (Sylvie Coquet porcelain, bouquets by Debeaulieu, starched white tablecloths), we promise you won’t be bored at Comice! Located in the depths of the 16 th arrondissement, running things is the lovely Canadian couple, Etheliya Hananova (ex-Sergent Recruteur) and Noam Gedalof (ex-Astrance). The former tends to the guests and the wines, while the latter stitches together some intricate plates – the five-course menu the other night simply went to prove it: gougère cheese puffs in Mornay sauce that tickled the taste buds; delicious line-caught bass carpaccio woken up by cucumber marinated in a briny mousse; jubilatory golden gnocchi with black trumpet mushrooms in a stunning Albufera sauce with jus de viande ; lamb prepared three ways (fillet, sweetbreads and bone marrow) with chard and carrots in jus ; before a spirited white peach sorbet with Champagne mousse, then an incredible chocolate soufflé topped with an erudite ice cream made with six different varieties of vanilla! // A.A.
