Paris
When I tried the restaurant Solstice during my last trip to Paris, I was sure – or almost – that the Michelin guide would add a star to its 2020 list. Not surprisingly, I was right!
Congratulations to Eric Trochon and his team for this outstanding achievement.
I didn’t plan it this way, but finishing my stay in Paris with the restaurant Le Chateaubriand was perfect: a blend of French bistro style and gastronomy food. I didn’t read many reviews about the restaurant, but after looking at the pictures on Google I thought, if this casual bistro has a Michelin star, then the dishes must be as good as they are beautiful.
Revisit, reshape, reconstruct; this is exactly what Myriam Sabet did with the Middle Eastern pastries at Maison Aleph.
Takayuki Nameura, born and raised in Japan, arrived in Paris in 2016 and opened his own restaurant: Montée. And just like that, he received his first Michelin star in 2018!
I previously mentioned chef Thibault Sombardier in a couple of my blog posts. He’s no stranger to worldfooddina! Apparently, it’s not enough to be the chef at the one Michelin-starred restaurant Antoine; he’s also the owner of Mensae (table in Latin) and now Sellae (chair in Latin) in the 13th arrondisssement.
Fulgurances is a springboard for ambitious and talented sous-chefs attempting to cut their teeth on shrewd patrons ready to play the game before hopefully one day opening their own restaurant.
Paris is known for its high number of restaurants: there are so many that you can end up starving going from one restaurant to another, not being able to make up your mind.
People enter the bakery du pain et des idées because it’s a beautiful store, they buy the bread and viennoiseries because they are mouthwatering, and finally, they come back because it is simply delicious!
Those who have been following me for a while know by now my passion for Japanese fusion cuisine.
L’inconnu is no exception to the rule: a combination of Italian cuisine and local products orchestrated by a talented Japanese chef, Koji Higaki.
So many famous figures in the worlds of art and literature have stepped onto the floor of La Maison Rose and most of us have no idea! Some of these people have been immortalized in paintings and others contributed to one of the turning points in art.
