Les Grands Gamins

The culinary approach at Les Grands Gamins recognizes that food in a gaming bar serves a specific purpose: it should be delicious, easy to share, and simple to eat without disrupting play. The menu delivers on this understanding with a focused selection of Mediterranean-inspired dishes that complement rather than compete with the main attraction.

Sharing platters form the foundation of the offerings, encouraging the communal spirit that defines the venue. The mezzés selection brings together various small bites in the Mediterranean tradition—think hummus, baba ganoush, marinated vegetables, and other flavorful components that guests can graze on throughout their gaming session. These dishes require minimal utensils and can be enjoyed at a leisurely pace, perfect for the stop-and-start rhythm of tabletop gaming.

The burrata offerings showcase quality ingredients in simple preparations that let the creamy cheese shine, typically accompanied by complementary elements like tomatoes, olive oil, and fresh bread. Charcuterie boards present carefully selected cured meats alongside accompaniments, providing protein-rich sustenance for longer gaming marathons. These planches (boards) arrive beautifully arranged but designed for easy, informal sharing—no fussy plating that might intimidate casual diners.

The food philosophy emphasizes quality over complexity. Rather than attempting an extensive menu that might overwhelm the kitchen, Les Grands Gamins focuses on executing a tight selection of crowd-pleasing options exceptionally well. This approach ensures consistency while keeping the focus where it belongs—on the games and social experience. The portions suit the venue's purpose: substantial enough to satisfy hunger during extended visits, yet priced and portioned to encourage ordering multiple items for variety throughout the evening.
