Some enthusiasts consider Akihiro Horikoshi to be the best Japanese chef in Paris. Yet his legendary humility still prevents him from talking about himself. But we still have his marvelous cuisine based mainly on fish and seafood. Akihiro, who has worked for more than twenty years at l’Ambroisie, masters French gastronomy brilliantly. the menu changes daily and all dishes are cooked to order. You can even order some in advance, made with truffles, caviar and some classic Ambrosia. The experience is always intimate and exceptional since the room can only accommodate 16 guests.
Between two galleries, you can savor delicious cuisine, simple but local, from the market, as we love them: a carpaccio (to die for!), original salads, a fish or a meat every day, foie gras or sashimi, with always surprising combinations, cheeses from Androuet and desserts from our childhood!
It is a bistro adored by Germans and travelers alike. Seven tables inside and a small sunny terrace with four tables in one of the prettiest streets in Paris.
Two floors, a terrace and a façade covered with plants, which changes with the seasons. In this bucolic universe, the Maison Sauvage offers, from breakfast to dinner, a natural and organic cuisine, original and delicious, which is suitable for everyone, vegetarians, vegans or simply gourmets.
The perfect combination of Parisian bistro and Thai restaurant. On the plates a thousand flavors are unleashed around coconut milk, coriander, satay, galangal, bergamot or lemongrass. Fresh, innovative and more traditional recipes such as the Crying Tiger, a crying tiger with marinated and grilled Angus beef or the always succulent fresh mango with sticky rice and coconut milk. As the place also unleashes passions, it is advisable to book.
The Crying Tiger
72 rue du Cherche-Midi 75006 Paris

For his first restaurant after twelve years in the Costes group, Quentin de Fleuriau wanted to create a truly unique place, in this corner of the Faubourg Saint-Germain that he particularly likes since it is here that he grew up.
For the decoration, he chose decorator and antique dealer Florence Lopez, who created a multi-faceted place, whose atmosphere changes throughout the day, bucolic during the day and more intimate in the evening. A deliciously shaded terrace, a bar worthy of the wildest Parisian years and, here and there, cozy spaces that lend themselves as well to conversation as to tasting.
In the kitchen, Quentin de Fleuriau wanted to preserve the values of a true French bistronomy even if the chef often likes to revisit it. Delicious savory and sweet surprises for foodies, including those who have chosen to be vegan.
But we also come here for exceptional events since Ma Kiss Room, created by the artist Mathias Kiss, can be privatized.
Pictures of J.F. Kennedy a little bit everywhere, a bar where we can have dinner, red moleskine wall seats, a real good Yankee cooking and customers from Saint-Germain des près, the synergy is good and the mojito even better before the cheeseburger ! Furthermore you will be able during the overcrowded nights to review your US history while waiting, thanks to the paper tablemats on which is printed the complete list of all the US presidents from Georges Washington to Joe Biden.
This is a very pretty place for days, nights and years. We love its vintage feel with antique furniture and of course its terrasse! It is ideal for a snack, an evening cocktail or a Sunday brunch with friends. In any case, this is such a warm place it makes going get toug.
Her green shops are recognizable at first glance, displaying her chocolate works on display. Patrick Roger is one of the best French chocolatiers but he is also an artist. He uses chocolate as raw material and, with knives and spatulas, he transforms it into giant format works. Some of his casts are even cast in bronze and sold while others are found in the window of his Parisian stores. For Easter or Christmas, his creations are at the same time the joy of chocolate lovers and aesthetes.
But the chocolate team also produces by hand, without the help of any mold, powerful and racy specialties with “best sellers” such as Instinct (rock praline roasted almonds), the Bee (ganache honey with a hint of pure honey) or the Amazon (lime caramel).
It’s simple it is unanimous! Everyone, or rather all the worlds, meet at La Laiterie Sainte-Clotilde. Head known or not, it feels at home. The menu is simple, it’s the market, and every dish is delicious. Jean-Baptiste Varenne and his team always welcome you with the same kindness, the conversations are sometimes tied between the tables, in short it is a place that gives fishing and which is quickly a haven.
