Charming Aptt With Patio - 2bd/4p - Monceau Park

As you take a seat in this smart restaurant decked in marble, wood and stone and located in the well-heeled Monceau neighbourhood, you will sample a tasting menu of unabashed modernity that stars outstanding produce and consummate craftsmanship. Suave, delicate dishes like lamb cooked two ways (saddle rare and shredded with mustard seed) and a medley of carrots. Fogo symbolises fire, setting the scene in this urban chic eatery.

Chef Nicolas Beaumann enthusiastically perpetuates the tradition of delicious food that has always been synonymous with this emblematic establishment, albeit while increasingly embracing the modern, as reflected in the newly refurbished dining room. The short à la carte menu and the tasting menus (one of which is plant-based) include poivrade artichoke "in a velouté of its leaves; caper and olive stuffing", their classic pike-perch quenelle with lobster cream, and Bresse chicken with salsify and a yellow wine jus. Pastry chef David Boudinet's sweets also make an impression – for instance, the

In this cosy, welcoming room adorned in soft shades, the menu rolls out a lineup of premium ingredients that depend on the whim of chef Yoshi Nagato (Maison Rostang, Le Cinq, Épicure) and his partner, Asuka Ishiba, in charge of desserts. Brittany lobster salad, wax beans, Piedmont hazelnuts and a dressing of lobster roe; Challans duckling lacquered in honey and Sichuan pepper; roast sweetbread and sautéed girolles… Stylish, high-precision plating and generous helpings. Fine range of organic and natural wines.

In an interior dominated by a masterful charcoal work, an "urban cave painting" depicting a bestiary by the artist Adel Abdessemed, Pierre Gagnaire continues to finetune France’s culinary scene with his adventurous, wholehearted and excessive signature cuisine. This fan of jazz and contemporary art never rests on his laurels. Gagnaire's restaurant, which has had three stars since 1996, reflects his character: modern, understated and subtly sophisticated, all of which is in perfect harmony with the service. The poetic dishes are constantly reinvented, like small "satellite" portions sent into o

The faham is an orchid native to the island of Réunion, famous for its subtle almond scent. Kelly Rangama (2017 Top Chef contestant) chose this flower to symbolise her civil and culinary union with pastry chef Jérôme Devreese and their joint creation: this sleek, elegant restaurant tucked away in the Batignolles district. Here the chef rolls out a culinary patchwork that abounds in vibrancy and delicacy, spicy but always subtle, with an exotic edge that makes all the difference. An example: tandoori-style monkfish, followed by a wickedly decadent poached rhubarb, ginger and mango sorbet and a

This iconic establishment dating back to 1946 is the epitome of French classicism. Run by the Gardinier family (Les Crayères in Reims), Taillevent is nothing short of an institution. Here in the former private mansion of the Duke of Morny (19C), you are cocooned from the world outside. Chef Giuliano Sperandio is in charge of the kitchen. Tradition is honoured with some elements being prepared tableside, such as the meat or fish trolley served in two courses (veal chop, Pornic pigeon, the catch from small-boat fishing etc) or the classic crêpes Suzette, flambéed first with Grand Marnier and the

Le Bristol is the quintessence of luxury, from its spa suites and superb formal garden to its rooftop pool and dining area with Louis XVI furnishings, mirrors, and tall French windows looking out onto the greenery. In the kitchen of the flagship restaurant, Arnaud Faye errs towards minimalism with his light and refined preparations – a purity of flavours that does not preclude generosity in the dishes. The ingredients are of course excellent, the cooking techniques and temperatures flawless; the bread is made on the premises from heirloom wheat varieties, the sauces are light yet highly concen
