From the pantagruéliques meals offered at the table of Louis XV to the menus of school canteens established today, in collaboration with dieticians, the diet is part of a complex historical reality. It is these practical and theoretical relationships with «eating» and «drinking» that "Entrée-Plat-Dessert" wishes to question about a territory that has largely contributed to nourishing Paris since the Ancien Régime. While presenting the picture of three centuries of local productions, whether they are agri-food or they invest in the field of tableware, the exhibition presents the diversity of food practices of the inhabitants of the south-is Parisian on a daily basis or during friendly meals. It shows that food, an issue of public health and society, also questions the existence of a Val-de-Marnaise gastronomic culture.

In 2002, the Val-de-Marne General Council acquired an old house that was in turn a boarding house for children from the 1930s, a shelter for Jewish children during the Second World War and finally a retirement home until 1998\. Inaugurated in September 2009, the site is now a place of resources on the history and heritage of the department with a programming offer for all audiences. The Maison de l'histoire et du patrimoine brings together: - the headquarters of partner associations of the Val-de-Marne Departmental Archives Directorate, - a space for hosting initiatives highlighting the department’s history, heritage and memory (exhibitions, conferences, workshops...), - a place of resources on heritage.
