Fripon

The exciting small plates from (Top Chef contestant) Pauline Séné were well-worth climbing the Ménilmontant hill – so good that we added Fripon to our list of 50 Favorite Restaurants in Paris. Unfortunately, Séné left Fripon to helm the kitchen at Arboré, a restaurant in the Hôtel Royal Madeleine. We returned to test Fripon after her departure and had one of the worst meals of the year, as evidenced by this dish:

We also disliked our experience at her rather soulless new restaurant Arboré. It’s a shame that whatever magic existed for a brief moment at Fripon has entirely dissipated.
