This is France's first restaurant devoted to the traditional Japanese tea ceremony. Cha-kaiseki actually refers to the meal that is served with the tea; Yuichiro Akiyoshi is the chef's name. Tucked away behind an unassuming-looking wooden façade, the restaurant seats just 16. White miso soup and carrot mochi; rice-straw-grilled bonito; soya chawanmushi and sesame tofu; charcoal-grilled gilthead seabream, bottarga and Japanese butterbur tempura; mackerel sushi, mushroom broth and soba: ingredient-led cuisine centred on freshness and prepared in view of guests by the chef, assisted by the chef's

After two years at Duende in Nîmes, Masaki Nagao is back on a pilgrimage to the capital as he breathes new life into this establishment. In the wake of Vantre and Le Clarence, the Japanese chef signs a crisp, modern, subtly inventive Gallic repertory guided by the seasons. He avows a weakness for briny shellfish, that he adds raw, cooked and in broth to structure his culinary score. You may sample a veggie composition on a carrot, radish and turnip theme, laced with a shellfish consommé, or sashimi of first-class scallops flanked by pear, smoked ricotta and Castelfranco.

The restaurant’s name is a fusion of the chef’s first name, Mory, and that of Yasuke, the first and only African samurai of Japan, which rather sets the scene. The chef successfully mixes his Malian and Senegalese roots, his fascination for Japan and, of course, his passion for Gallic food and techniques. The end result is inspired and original, featuring dishes that are distinctive, accomplished and sprinkled in a melting-pot of flavours: flame torched langoustines, achu sauce, piquillos and aromatic herbs; confit of croaker, kik alicha, fermented cabbage and confit citrus fruit; Aubrac beef

Frédéric Anton presides over the fortunes of this emblematic restaurant on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, accessible by a private lift. The magic of this location 125m up from ground level instantly bewitches diners, who are further captivated by the high-flying cuisine. Every day, the teams pull out all the stops to elevate blue-ribbon produce and deliver delicate, perfectly judged dishes boasting flavour combinations that are always on point. For example, a sublime soufflé of scallops with a Dieppoise sauce and Oscietra caviar, or grenobloise-style caramelised calf sweetbread, perfect

"The best cookbook ever written was by Mother Nature herself," according to Alain Passard. His green philosophy is de rigueur more than ever in his cuisine, which is now entirely free of animal protein. The chef who fetes fruit and flowers never feels more at home than when in one of his three kitchen gardens in the west of France, where his twin vocations of cook and gardener meet. He heads there for inspiration and to explore culinary possibilities, coming back with recipes as accomplished as his "sushi fantaisie" or beechwood-smoked potatoes with wine sauce, for example.

Camille Guérin has given this former bistro an understated makeover, complete with a light-filled enclosed porch and lovely pale wood furnishings. A concise lunch menu on the blackboard and a single set menu in the evening that kicks off with an assortment of three starters to share. The young chef makes it her culinary mission to put a bistronomy spin on classic French fare, proposing a handful of vegetarian options and prioritising local produce – and she pulls it off with well-crafted dishes at reasonable prices. "Perfect egg" with mushrooms and chopped parsley; roast pumpkin and falafel-st
