Oxtail hachis parmentier with black truffles, oysters in sour cream sauce and oysters in watersea jelly are the dishes that make me come back to Apicius Paris every winter.

Shang Palace at Shangri-la

Shang Palace at Shangri-la is the newest hotel restaurant opening in Paris. (opened on the 8th of September). You don’t really have great Cantonese restaurants in the city and Shang Palace is by far the best of all the Chinese I’ve been in Paris. However, if you’ve had Cantonese specialities…

Il Carpaccio at Royal Monceau

Il Carpaccio at Royal Monceau has always been one of my favourite Italian restaurants in Paris. Since the refurbishment of the hotel, the newly opened Il Carpaccio is even better.

Guy Savoy, Paris

It’s been a while I haven’t been at Guy Savoy and I’ve almost forgot how brilliant this chef’s cooking is. For me, the food at Guy Savoy represents the true 3 Michelin stars cuisine. You are impressed by the forms, the textures and the presentation, but finally what amazes you…
