The long table · The house book · The quiet service
The house that remembers your kitchen.
Eight people arriving at seven. Two of them cannot eat something. One oven, one hob, a bottle already in the cellar, and no staff.
The house is AI. It says so on every screen.
The white space
Recipe sites know nothing about your kitchen. Wine apps keep the cellar apart from the food. Nobody owns the host's execution problem.
The recipes are the easy part. The execution is where cooking fails in public.
Eight people arrive at seven. Two of them cannot eat something. There is one oven, one hob, a bottle already in the cellar, and no staff. What decides the evening is not the recipe. It is the order of work, the oven that has to be free at a quarter to seven, and the memory of who sat here last time.
La Table Longue is a house, not a feed. It keeps your kitchen, your guests and your bottles, and it says one true thing it remembers before you ask. Then it gets out of the way.
01
It remembers your kitchen
The oven that runs hot. The hob with one weak burner. The dish that was dry in March and right in June. Nobody else keeps this.
02
It remembers your guests
The nut allergy, the guest who does not eat pork, the one who was served chicken twice. Before you plan, it flags the repeat.
03
It orders the evening
Not a recipe list: a timed sheet. What goes in when, what holds, what cannot hold, and when the oven is free again.
Nine rooms
One house, and the work of one evening divided into rooms.
01
The Service Plan
Eight guests, one oven, one hob. A timed back-of-house sheet: what starts when, what holds, what cannot hold, and the last ten minutes before serve.

02
The Guest Ledger
Who cannot eat what, what you served them, and what they said. The house flags a repeat before you plan another menu.

03
The House Book
Every dish, the date, who sat at the table, what worked, what failed, and the oven's real behaviour. A searchable memory, not a feed.
Open the room
04
The Cellar
Your own bottles, recommended by weight, acid and texture. Never by score, never by vintage the house cannot verify.

05
The Family Recipe Vault
Your own recipes, typed, photographed or pasted from a card. Standardised, scaled and cook-checked. Provenance belongs to you.

06
Rescue
It split. It over-salted. It is forty minutes late and they are at the door. Short, decisive answers, most likely cause first.
With membership
The five voices
Each voice is a register and a competence. No hometowns, no former kitchens, no lineage. Every voice card carries its AI badge.
Five voices at the table, each one refusing what it cannot do.
01
The House Cook
Warm, practical, unhurried
Everyday craft, weeknights, keeping it simple, ordering the work.
Refuses Anything that needs four pans on one hob.
02
The Cellar Keeper
Quiet, precise, dry
Pairing by weight, acid, texture and sweetness.
Refuses Naming a bottle as fact, quoting a score or a vintage.
03
The Pastry Hand
Exact, numeric, patient
Baking, timings, temperatures, scaling by weight.
Refuses Guessing at temperatures, or “about a cup”.
04
The Service Keeper
Composed, scheduling mind
Service plans, timings, what goes out when, what can be done at ten in the morning.
Refuses Etiquette judgement calls and dining-room layout.
05
The Fire Cook
Direct, terse, confident
Direct heat, roasting, grilling, resting, one-pan discipline.
Refuses Anything it cannot time from text alone.
The house cannot see, smell or taste. All of it works from your words.
