Glad to see nobody suggesting "parenthesis"...

Agree with Carol The parenthese bit could be aptly rendered by inverted commas

Carol Gullidge Aug 30, 2021:

since the term already exists in English, there seems no point in retranslating it. This would depend on your target audience: if they are fairly knowledgeable readers (or wish to be perceived as such by others) then I always prefer to talk UP to the TA rather than talking down, which can be incredibly irritating! However, you may consider adding a very subtle Gloss of your own at its first occurrence in the text, if you feel it really needs to be explained.
But I know that if I were a target reader, I personally would feel quite irritated if the proper term was always skirted around, especially as this one doesn't take a genius to work out what it might be!

Context I'm not clear whether the question is about 'bistronomique' or the three-word phrase, but here's the context:

Apologies, so I have. It's bistronomique. It's a term for casual fine dining but I just wondered if anyone had come up with a snappy English translation for it, or if "bistronomic or bistronomique" is starting to be used as a term in English?

Spelling? You’ve used two versions of the word bistronomique/bistronimique!
Which is it - assuming this can’t be found in any dictionary
