The three Michelin stars Jean Georges was the most boring and “factory like” gastronomic restaurant I have ever dined. It doesn’t come any close to the three or even two Michelin stars” institutions” in France and in Europe while in New York I could name at least five gastronomic restaurants…

Le Duc lobster sauted with orange served with fried onions is pure perfection. The bitterness of fried onions and the sourness of orange sauce give the lobster a whole new dimension…

For those who love sushis, Paris is not the best place to be. It’s not that there are no Japanese restaurants – there are, but most of them are so way behind their counterparts in NY or London that you can’t but notice the inferior quality of fish or the…

Dave ( 12 Rue de Richelieu, 75001,tel.: 01 42 61 49 48 ) is the PLACE to be during the Paris fashion week. Old fashioned boudoir style interior, red walls hidden by polaroids of top models, actors and fashion people. And, of course, Dave, the main reason why all these…
