福里德特酒店 - 圣日耳曼德佩

This restaurant is in an original location on the first floor of the Armani store in St-Germain-des-Prés (not far from the church). The interior is pure and elegant, in the designer's style, of course: a palette of beiges, banquette seating, glossy walls, subdued lighting… Might this be just another shopfront in all but name? On the contrary, this ristorante is one of the best Italian eateries in Paris. Chef Massimo Tringali, former sous-chef at Casadelmar in Porto-Vecchio, works with high-quality ingredients in the spirit of contemporary Italian cuisine. It is fresh, tasty and skilfully done:

In the special occasion setting of the Hôtel de la Monnaie, Guy Savoy is continuing the story he began a few decades ago – back when, as a young boy, he would peek into the pans in the kitchen of his family's restaurant, La Buvette de l'Esplanade, in Bourgoin-Jallieu. Here, he has taken things to another level. Imagine six boutique dining rooms, whose windows overlook the Seine and Paris, adorned with contemporary art and sculpture (many loaned by François Pinault). The splendour of this iconic backdrop in no way distracts the chef from his daily mission, which is to pay tribute to French cuis

"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. Enjoy as you take i

The revamped Samaritaine department store is home to the luxurious Cheval Blanc Hotel, within whose walls lies this restaurant, the haunt of low-profile chef, Arnaud Donckele, who has three stars to his name at La Vague d'Or in St Tropez. Wholly committed, he pops in and out of the kitchen to share his passion with diners. His new spin on classical cuisine takes you on a voyage between Normandy, his place of birth, and the Mediterranean, his home of adoption and the Paris region… It is impossible not to be bowled over by his work, from its delicacy and generosity to the exceptional quality of

Chef Yoshinori Morié (formerly at Le Petit Verdot, Encore, L'Auberge du 15) delights diners with refined, visually pleasing cuisine in the form of single set menus. Think tartare of Corrèze veal, cockles and cauliflower; monkfish, lotus and mushrooms; or ballotine of pigeon, porcini, dates, carrots and combava – so many unabashed odes to elegance and indulgence. In a busy corner of the Latin Quarter, this place is a rare gem among the usual eateries, housed in an intimate setting with exposed stonework, white beams, Japanese-style woodwork, designer lighting, white linen and porcelain. An appe

The stripped-back decor of this eatery will appeal to fans of minimalism. You will taste a festival of Japanese delicacies: sushi, tempura, black cod marinated in miso and grilled, sakura mochi… The house signature is soba (buckwheat noodles) served hot or cold. Authentic fare and slick, seamless service.

Just opposite Ferrandi, the legendary culinary school, Quinsou ("chaffinch" in Occitan) is ideally positioned to influence the great chefs of tomorrow. In a trendy, vintage interior (cement tiles and zinc bar counter), the warm owner-chef, Antonin Bonnet, signs a spot-on, authentic take on artisanal cuisine. The excellent value for pleasure lunchtime formula is a hit every time with a choice of two menus devised around premium market-fresh ingredients. The duck and foie gras pâté en croûte, which keeps pace with the seasons, is a masterpiece of culinary balance from the delectable pastry crust
