フランス語:Au Crocodile is a formerly Michelin Guide starred French restaurant in Strasbourg, named after a stuffed crocodile. It previously held three stars under former chef Emile Jung. ==History== The restaurant was named after a stuffed crocodile that a local general brought back from overseas whilst on Napoleon Bonaparte's campaign in Egypt and Syria,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fodors.com/world/europe/france/alsace-lorraine/review-448678.html )〕 and which is hung over the foyer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lonelyplanet.com/france/alsace-and-lorraine/strasbourg/restaurants/gastronomic/au-crocodile )〕 In 1921, the prominent French gastronomic journalist Curnonsky (nicknamed the "Prince of Gastronomy") wrote about Au Crocodile, and the stuffed crocodile in the foyer. Emile Jung and his wife Monique took over the restaurant in 1971 and, in 1989, it was awarded three Michelin stars.〔 In 2002, it lost one of them. Jung said, "No words can ease the pain that eats at our hearts and that has killed our spirits".〔 〕 Some of Jung's colleagues took out a full-page advertisement to show their support.〔 Au Crocodile is popular with European MPs from the nearby Seat of the European Parliament in Strasbourg.〔 〕 The restaurant has been used as a site for discussing international relations: in May 2010 the Prime Minister of Albania Sali Berisha and his opposition leader Edi Rama were summoned to a meeting there by members of the European Union.〔 〕 Chef Philippe Bohrer purchased the restaurant in 2010 from Jung for more than a million Euros. Since 2015 and under the new leadership of Cedric Moulot Au Crocodile in Strasbourg reborn today. The chef Ludovic Kientz and Cedric Moulot embody the revival of this Prestigious Address. フランス語:Le Crocodile in Vancouver, Canada, was named after フランス語:Au Crocodile after chef Michel Jacob visited the French restaurant as a young man.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Au Crocodile」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
