ABOUT PETITE JACQUELINE
A woman of incredible stature – even though she’s only 4’ 8” – Jacqueline shared her love of life and food with her granddaughter and granddaughter’s husband, Michelle, and Steve Corry. Born and raised in Andresy, just outside of Paris, Jacqueline was an enthusiastic and passionate cook. Using market-fresh ingredients, she created dishes without pretense that would astound even the most discriminating palate. This is exactly the type of food and atmosphere you’ll enjoy with each visit to Petite Jacqueline. We hope you’ll dine with us often and savor the classic and lively fare, influenced by the classic and lively woman. Although “Petite” Jacqueline is no longer with us, her memory lives on whenever someone is laughing with friends or celebrating with family. Her zest for life and love of hospitality lives on in her name-sake restaurant inspired by her lust for food and wine (most especially oysters and champagne!)
