Alain Milliat’s exquisite fruit juices, nectars, and conserves line the walls of this boutique-cum-restaurant, serving a no-choice menu at lunch and dinner, operating as a tea salon in the afternoons, and open for shopping all day.
Brash, Basque, and belly-filling, a meal at l’Ami Jean can be coma-inducing. Reserve in advance, and plan on walking home.
Part of the new wave of cafés, Coutume offers serious coffee drinks, plus lunch, brunch, and a selection of pastries from Pâtisserie de Rêves.
Young chef Nicholas Valanchon is drawing attention for inventive cooking that’s grounded in the traditions of his native Picardy.
There must be at least one marriage proposal at the Jules Verne every day. Perched high in the Eiffel Tower, the restaurant was taken over by Ducasse, and his chef Pascal Féraud offers a menu of classics, befitting of the location (foie gras in many forms, escargots, tournedos de boeuf, Bresse chicken, savarin a l’Armagnac). The only thing missing might be a view of the tower itself. One Michelin star.
A red and black-lacquered dining room lit with lanterns and staffed by lovely ladies: Lily Wang rides the Asian wave sweeping Paris with style and steep prices.
Gael Orieux’s menu at the polished and posh Auguste is all about seafood.
The original L’Atelier, in what’s now a global empire.
Alain Passard spins turnips into gold at this vegecentric (but not vegetarian) three star restaurant.
