Restaurant Jacques et Suzanne

The Restaurant Jacques et Suzanne was an upscale restaurant on the thirtieth floor of the First National Bank Building (now known as the Regions Bank Building). The restaurant was originally established in 1975 by Swiss husband-wife restauranteurs Jacques Tritten and Suzanne Tritten. The couple's specialty was Swiss-French cuisine. The general manager was Swiss citizen Henri Monod. The chef was Paul Bash. The head waiter was the Belgian Louie Petit.

After a couple of months ownership passed to Ed Moore of European Food Services. Bash became manager of general operations. Petit became a part-owner. Chef Denis Seyer, who joined the restaurant staff in 1975, left in 1980 to found the French restaurant Le Casse Croute. Jacques et Suzanne closed in 1995.
