Au Pied de Cochon

Au Pied de Cochon is a French restaurant located in Polanco, Mexico City, that operates as a Parisian brasserie. Originating in Paris in 1947 within the Les Halles market, the original establishment became famous for its exceptional onion soup, pork dishes, and its unique 24-hour service. Since 2000, Grupo Presidente has brought this concept to Mexico City, where it has become a culinary landmark in Polanco, serving traditional French cuisine for over two decades. The restaurant emphasizes the authenticity of classic French dishes, offering diners the chance to enjoy typical French gastronomy at any hour, day or night. It remains open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, which is rare in the local dining scene. Executive Chef Frédéric Lobjois leads the kitchen, bringing extensive experience from prestigious French hotels and previous roles in the best kitchens in Mexico. Au Pied de Cochon also caters to families with its weekend Chiquiclub, a supervised children's programme that includes games, crafts, movies, safety bracelets, and an optional buffet for children and their nannies. This family-friendly approach complements the warm atmosphere of a traditional Parisian brasserie.
