We start with two addresses that delight us in the 8th: Clos d’Astorg, a bistro that proudly serves perfectly mastered classics, and Monsieur Dior by Yannick Alléno, where high fashion and gourmet cuisine come together in perfect harmony. Next, we move to the 9th with Felini, which takes us on a little tour of Italy. With a sixties decor and beautifully crafted dishes, we absolutely adore it. Then we zip off to the 11th to discover Épopée, where Thomas Legrand and Megumi Terao give Yurika Kitano free rein. The chef offers us fresh, seasonal cuisine made with quality ingredients and vibrant seasonings. Finally, we head to the 17th to settle down at À L’Improviste, where Jean-Marc Notelet pays a lovely tribute to bistro cuisine.
