“My job is to respect these tastes [natural produce] and make them more vivid and vital�
Interview
Christian Le Squer ® Stephane de Bourgies - Chef Le Squer 2016; Four Seasons George V, Line-fished Sea Bass, Caviar, Fermented Milk - © Jean Claude Amiel
THE DELICIOUS TALENT OF
Christian Le Squer
T
he tightly furled jade-green cabbage sitting on chef Christian Le Squer’s desk was grown near L’Orient, a port town in the beautiful Morbihan region of Brittany, France’s shaggy, craggy westernmost Atlantic province. It had been offered to the chef, who’s also from the Morbihan region, by one of his suppliers earlier on a busy morning inside the immaculate kitchens of Le Cinq at the Hôtel George V in Paris, but whatever the vegetable’s indisputable gastronomic merits may be it’s also sort of a beautiful totem of Le Squer’s brilliant career. To wit, beyond the spectacular technical skills Le Squer has mastered during the three decades since he moved to Paris from Brittany and began cooking in a succession of the French capital’s best restaurants, the rudder of his superb cooking will always be a reflexive humility born of a profound respect for the implicit gastronomic perfection found in nature. “Bretons grow up knowing and loving the purity of the sea, and this has a huge impact on our palates, because we know that nature is always honest. There’s simply nothing better than the tastes of
By Alexander Lobrano
produce as nature made it,” says Le Squer. “My job is to respect these tastes and make them more vivid and vital, and often this is best done with an elegant but profoundly subtle sauce. These sauces are the genius of the French kitchen,” he adds. Among the signature dishes of the three-starred Michelin chef, Le Cinq proposes dishes that are angelic, turbot with a puree of tiny ratte potatoes and apple emulsion; flirtatious, large crispy Brittany langoustines with oyster-flavoured whipped cream; and earthy and sensual, including my favourite, smoked black Venere rice with a ruddy cream of boudin noir (blood sausage) and passion fruit coulis, the latter adding a racy acidity to a lusciously funky preparation. The menu changes every season and offers a range of options to suit all tastes and hungers, including the 9-course “Balade Gourmande” menu served at dinner, and a 4-course or 6-course “Déjeuner Gourmand” menus at lunch. The consistent wick of Le Squer’s cooking, however, is his spectacular but judicious creativity, the flawless technical precision of
every dish, and the beauty of the way in which they’re plated. Now a sous-chef steps into the glass-walled office in a corner of the busy kitchen with something for the chef and his guest, me, to taste, a plate of tiny fragile tarts filled with a luscious flan of chicken livers topped with chopped tiny cornichons, those miniature cucumbers in vinegar that are perhaps the most emblematic of all French pickles, and shallots. “I think we need a glass of wine with these tartlettes,” says Le Squer, a warm, enthusiastic and very amiable man. He nods at an assistant, and continues. “So what I’ve learned through the years is to become a composer, a composer of tastes and textures, because aside from the work of sourcing the best possible produce, this is the most fascinating and challenging part of my work, creating compositions that surprise people and delight them. The way that I often work is that I imagine the taste of a dish and then I look for the ingredients that will create it. Sometimes it can take weeks, even months before I get it right, because I am such a perfectionist and a little bit obsessive.” A waiter arrives and serves two w w w.wh e re t r ave l e r. com 15
Le Squer sips his wine and grins. “Ahhhh, Alexandre, que la vie est belle, non?” (Life is good, no?). The buttery wine is sublime, and we’ve just started nibbling the exquisite tarts, intriguingly edible cameos of bracingly acidulous tastes tethered by base notes of umami, when a distinguished older gentleman appears in the doorway. Le Squer leaps to his feet. “Serge, Bonjour! Please join us!” Serge Michel, 90, one of the most distinguished businessmen in France and a member of the legendary Club des Cent, the most elite private dining club in Gaul, takes a place at the table. Michel, who has lunch at Le Cinq several times a week, was just stopping by to pay his respects. Now Le Squer becomes visibly excited, explaining that it was “Monsieur Michel who really taught me how to cook.” What Le Squer means is that it was Monsieur Michel who recruited him from the Grand Hotel, where he’d won his first Michelin star in 1996, to take over the Pavillon Ledoyen in the gardens of the 16 W HE RE PA R I S I M AY 2017
Champs-Elysées in 1999. “It was a remarkable opportunity for me,” Le Squer says almost breathlessly, and Michel observes him with a gently bemused almost avuncular affection. “J’avais raison de lui faire venir,” (I was right to bring him along) says Michel, who explains that he dines primarily in three Parisian restaurant, Le Cinq, Alain Ducasse au Plaza Athénée and Restaurant Helen, perhaps because these tables respond to the original criteria of Le Club de Cent when it was founded in 1912, “We seek to create a list of those places where you eat delicious things served on clean plates on immaculate white table cloths.” Before Monsieur Michel excuses himself to return to his table in the elegant dining room on the other side of the kitchen door, he offers an opinion on the tartlette. “Très, très bonne,” he says with a twinkle in his eye and excuses himself. Le Squer takes the compliment with the happy smile of a child on Christmas Day, and shakes his head. “You know, I am a very lucky man. I was born happy, that’s what my grandmother always said to me when I was a boy. I came from a happy family, and I saw the beauty of real craft when I was a boy, because my father was a (ebéniste) cabinetmaker. We ate fish that was just a few hours out of the sea and vegetables from our
garden, a diet that was simple but succulent. And I found my métier easily, too. I was working on a boat as a young man, and meals were the highlight of the day, a time of pleasure and conviviality. So one day that was it, I knew that I wanted to be a cook, that I wanted to be the person who created this happiness,” says Le Squer, who studied at a hotel school in Vannes in Brittany and moved to Paris immediately once he graduated. “I love Paris, because the city offers such a superbly knowledgeable, exigent and adventurous clientele, both French and foreign, for a chef. And I am a profoundly Parisian chef, because the city is my font of inspiration, its smells, sounds, light, colours, markets, architecture, everything about it fascinates me and stimulates. There’s almost nothing I love more than riding my bicycle to work or going for long walks in the city,” says Le Squer, a decidedly boyish fifty-four-year old. I ask him what it is exactly that makes him a “very Parisian chef,” and he replies, “Maybe it’s breaking and respecting the codes of a certain French gastronomic elegance at the same time. You might even say that my cooking is like a Chanel jacket worn with a pair of jeans. Parisian good taste is always a little irreverent.”

glasses of Meursault, one of the greatest of all the white wines produced in Burgundy (The wine list at Le Cinq, which is run by Eric Beaumard, one of the world’s greatest sommeliers, runs to over 50,000 bottles).
Interview At Ledoyen, he held three Michelin stars for twelve consecutive years, and then in 2014 he was headhunted by José Silva, the general manager of the Four Seasons George V, to take over the kitchens of Le Cinq with the aim of helping the restaurant recover its third Michelin star. This supreme Gallic gastronomic benediction arrived in 2016 after a herculean amount of work. “I could never have done it alone, you know. The three stars belong as much to my team as they do to me,” says Le Squer, adding, “And now I am completely serene, because I have nothing to prove anymore. I’m completely confident of my knowledge of flavours and my ability to build taste. The stars are a wonderful recognition, of course, but many chefs find them a burden, since there is always the fear they might be withdrawn. I don’t think about this, though, because my goal is to create emotions, and I know that I do this. Also, the experience of any chef’s cooking is like visiting a museum. You won’t like every painting you see in the museum, you’ll like some better than others, and some not at all. But even if they’re not to your personal taste, you can still admire them.”

Commenting on the Paris dining scene today, Le Squer says that he’s very optimistic. “The restaurant offer in Paris today is spectacular, and the produce is incredible. Our butchers, our bakers, our cheese-mongers are better than ever before, and we have all of these passionate young people like Alexandre Drouard and Samuel Nahon, the founders of Terroirs d’Avenir who are passionate about finding the very best small producers in France and showcasing them at their boutiques in Paris and also supplying them to chefs. It’s a remarkable time to live in or visit Paris for anyone who loves good food as much as I do.” Outside the kitchen, Le Squer is a passionate traveller and reader, pleasures he shares with his wife, and an avid gallery goer. I ask him who his favourite painter is, and I’m not at all surprised by his answer. “Claude Monet. His impressionism makes great sense to me, because it expresses visual images in the same way I aspire to express taste.” Outside of his office, the kitchen is getting busy as the first lunch orders come in, so I thank the charming chef for so much of his time, Le Squer is the kind of man you could happily chat with for hours, and start gathering my things. “It’s a shame we can’t have more of this Meursault together,” he says, gesturing at the wine in an ice bucket, and then, he turns the tables for a second with a few questions of his own before I leave. “Alexandre, the cornichon tartlette, what did you really think?” It was brilliant, I tell him. “But did it need a tiny pinch of Cayenne or Espelette pepper? Or maybe a barely perceptible note of something sweet to temper the acidity of the pickles?” No, not to my palate, I reply, and I’m moved by this fleeting glimpse of the deep reasoning, insistent logic and fierce attention to detail that define the seriousness of his cooking beyond the distraction of his eminently affable personality. A few days after my chat with Le Squer, I’m still dreaming about those spectacular little chicken-liver, cornichon and shallot tartlettes when I sit down at the kitchen table to eat a quick sandwich in the middle of a very busy work day. I page through a French magazine as I eat, and I come across a little interview with Le Squer. The French journalist asks him what vegetable he would be if he were a vegetable, and he replies, “Un chou.” (a cabbage). Of course he’d be a cabbage, I muse, both the man and the vegetable are humble but full of delicious possibilities and deeply nourishing, and then I can’t stop myself from thinking that when the chou fits, Christian Le Squer won’t wear it, he’ll cook it.

aris houses a number of art and cultural foundations offering original and diverse exhibitions along with complementary programmes revolving around concerts, films and conferences. Sleek automobiles, contemporary African art, video games, art in the age of Rembrandt and three generations of German drawings are among the current offerings. The Fondation Louis Vuitton is housed in a spectacular building designed by American architect Frank Gehry and emerges amidst the greenery of the Bois de Boulogne nestled on the western edge of Paris. The building features spaces dedicated to the permanent collections, temporary exhibitions and commissioned works.
The foundation is currently hosting Art/ Afrique, Le Nouvel Atelier (Art/Africa, the New Studio), showing all month it is presenting recent works created by artists throughout the African continent from subSaharan Africa to South Africa. The show is played out in the foundation’s galleries in three sections. First up, The Insiders brings together a selection of works by 15 iconic artists, dating from 1989 to 2009, emanating from Jean Pigozzi’s collection of African art, which is being presented in Paris for the first time. The artists, each deeply influenced by the spiritual, scientific and craft traditions of their country of origin, depict unique worlds in various mediums. The Fondation Louis Vuitton is also presenting, parallel to The Insiders, Being There, a collective show of works by artists from South Africa. The show includes works by some 15 contemporary
artists working in various mediums ranging from installation works to photography, painting, textile and video. Complementing these two sections is a third, with works from the Fondation Louis Vuitton Collection that go beyond the African continent to include African artists working outside their countries of origin as well as Afro-American artists. A programme of events revolving around music, poetry, literature and cinema in conjunction with the show is also on the agenda. Surrounded by a nature-filled garden bursting with biodiversity and housed in a unique light-flooded building designed by architect Jean Nouvel, the Fondation Cartier showcases exhibitions, conferences and artistic productions.

foundation, located footsteps from the Montparnasse neighbourhood, is dedicated to promoting and raising public awareness of contemporary art and organises a programme of exhibitions of individual artists and themes and also commissions works from artists. Currently on the agenda is a show devoted to the automobile underscoring the links between the car and photography. Running all month and entitled Autophoto, the show aims to show the influence of the car on the techniques and creative process of photographers by giving them new subject materials, a new way of discovering the world and a new method of expression. The aesthetic, social, industrial and environmental aspects of the automobile 20 W HE RE PA R I S I M AY 2017
from 1900 to the present can be discovered through a selection of some 500 photographs by more than 90 photographers including Jacques-Henri Lartigue, William Eggleston, Lee Friedlander and Robert Doisneau. The show offers a complete panorama of the car with, for instance, the chaos of Parisian traffic being captured in the early 20th century. There are series of photographs of road trips, trips facilitated by the rise of the automobile, portraits of cars by themselves, parked on a street and with their proud owners. Cars, too, as images in the show underscore, brought along a host of new photographic techniques, like reflections in the windows or rear-view mirrors and frames that are jostled from the movement of the car. In short, this show pays tribute to the symbol of dreams and freedom that the car embodied in the 20th century.
Meanwhile, within walking distance from the Fondation Cartier over on the scenic Rue Récamier, a pedestrian street that culminates in a cul-de-sac, sits the Espace Fondation EDF, which is free and open to all and which is dedicated to presenting art and creations from all periods. The current show is full of fun for the whole family. Entitled Game and running all month, visitors can discover video games through the ages. Some 60 games are on hand with over half that can actually be played, demonstrating the evolutions and revolutions in a sector that today generates tens of billions of dollars throughout the planet. The show asks the critical question as to whether or not video games are art while offering some 15 reproductions of emblematic games over the decades. Another portion of the show offers the public a number of interactive

In Paris, Tasaki’s charming pieces are also blossoming throughout the capital, and we invite you to see it first-hand on an exclusive journey. A morning at Le Bon Marché: This symbolic department store located in the rive gauche area is where the Japanese brand Tasaki chose to set up its shop in 2014, revealing its expertise and collections to a sophisticated Parisian clientèle for the very first time. Its signature Balance ring and its matching earrings turned heads immediately. The ring’s five perfectly aligned Akoya pearls showcase Tasaki’s masterful skill as the number one Akoya pearl producer in the world. Exclusively sold at Le Bon Marché, the brand is launching its new M/G Tasaki collection created with FrancoGreek designer Mélanie Georgacopoulos. Her visionary mindset offers a modern, designoriented perspective on pearls, splitting them in two to reveal their very core. The collection is as contemporary as Le Bon Marché’s highly artistic location. An afternoon at Printemps: On the right bank of Paris you will find a Tasaki boutique at
Printemps Haussmann, where the brand just launched a temporary pop-up store (open until fall 2017) on the second floor in the espace luxe, surrounded by the most prestigious international brands.

architecture, luxurious woodwork and windows offering a glimpse into the very soul of the brand’s creations. Its fine jewellery adornments also showcase diamonds, highlighting the Japanese brand’s privileged status as a sightholder, buying rough diamonds from De Beers in order to size them and garnish their creations.
The Refined Rebellion collection is an ideal example, sporting its cone-shaped garnet or diamond crowns to elongate the pearls. The most recent collection—Balance Note—is a poetic allusion to musical notes with pearl embellishing. This collection is an excellent choice to don on a stroll around Place Madeleine or en route to Place Vendôme when you’re done shopping.
The Fireworks necklace or Balance Unite ring with half white and half black pearls would be a precious companion to join you at l’Espadon, the two-star restaurant in the heart of the Ritz.

With the opening of the new hotel, Le Roch, comes a new spa to massage your knots away. Codage, known for creating unique skincare formulas for each client, applies its philosophy to the treatments offered here at the spa, and there is no better treatment to try than the Couture Treatment. The 75-minute massage is a bespoke treatment that starts off by determining what texture you prefer when it comes to skincare products, a balm, a milk, a gel or a lotion, before the masseuse starts the body massage concentrating on the zones that need special attention before working up to your head for a scalp massage. The Couture Treatment ends with a facial, leaving your skin glowing, and that is why we recommend you book your treatment at the end of the day before returning to your hotel to sleep to avoid reapplying your make-up and letting the facial continue to work its magic overnight.

LOUIS QUATORZE
F
Classically Modern
rench knowhow and classic design embodying trendy and original details are the hallmarks of the house of Louis Quatorze. The luxury house brings out fine leather goods in calfskin blending the modern with the traditional to offer that quintessential French touch. It all began back in 1980 in the royal town of Versailles when Paul Baratte, a leather craftsman, founded the house, paying tribute to the Sun King, Louis XIV, who built the Château de Versailles and is regarded as the father of French luxury. The first workshop/ boutique was established in the Madeleine neighbourhood in Paris and the brand quickly drew attention for visitors could see the bags being fashioned out of fine French leather right in the shop. The house’s Signature collection was launched in 1981 followed by Nostalgie in 1983 whose advertising campaign featured the Orient Express. The brand would quickly become popular in Asia as well and in 1984 the house fashioned a clutch in black crocodile decorated with platinum and adorned with pearls and diamonds. Selling for US$74,816 in Japan, it was at the time the most expensive accessory in the world. Today, Louis Quatorze’s flagship boutique is nestled in the heart of the Marais inviting guests into a sumptuous and welcoming space that re-incarnates the bedroom of the Sun King. On the ground floor visitors can discover the current collection while upstairs
vintage pieces are on exhibit along with the men’s collection and at times a temporary art exhibition. The brand frequently showcases French artists working in diverse mediums and recent shows have included the celebrated celebrity portraits of the mythical Parisian Studio Harcourt and the magnificent flowers created by the artist and craftsman William Amor from recycled plastic bags. The house’s new collection is entitled Future Light and represents the future as seen through the prism of French Modernism drawing its inspiration in particular from Le Corbusier, a figurehead of the movement. The collection’s campaign was shot in a setting featuring an arid and rocky Martian landscape
where in certain sequences an astronaut emerges giving the scene a futuristic aspect. The astronaut expresses the challenges of the future through contact with the harshness of the raw landscape, which symbolises the beginning of the world. This out of the ordinary encounter between two universes represents the philosophy of French Modernism, the concept of the new collection, which embodies the boundaries of the past and the future. The house has recently opened a corner store designed by Paul Mathieu in the Galeries Lafayette department store.

Exhibitions
Magnificent Moments Romy Schneider and Alain Delon, one of the mythical and highly charismatic couples of cinema, bring to mind beauty, glamour, and summertime visions of the French Riviera as depicted in La Piscine, The Swimming Pool, the iconic and unforgettable film they starred in together, although by that time they were no longer linked romantically. As eyes and ears turn towards the 70th Cannes Film Festival, you can get a glimpse of glamour at the Galerie de l’Instant, which is hosting an exhibition devoted to photographs of the two stars entitled Romy Schneider & Alain Delon, Les Amants Magnifiques (The Magnificent Lovers). The photographs taken by leading photographers offer an up close and personal view of the couple, having a meal in Cannes in 1962, a rare shot of them in their home in Tancrou in 1959, and the gloriously gracious shots from the set of La Piscine.

A Wonderful Wardrobe Dalida, the great singer and beauty, was also a great lover of fashion. The Palais Galliera, the city’s museum devoted to fashion, is paying tribute to the star through an exhibition of her wardrobe, entitled Dalida, Une GardeRobe de la Ville à la Scène (Dalida, a Wardrobe from the City to the Stage), the object of a recent donation by Dalida’s brother Orlando. The greatest designers dressed her both for the stage and in day-to-day life, and this exhibition brings her style to centre stage. The strapless red velvet dress by Jean Dessès that Dalida wore on stage at Bobino for a hit performance in 1958, and later at the Olympia in 1981 to celebrate her 25 years of a successful career is among the outfits on display. The exhibition offers an astonishing array of fashion by major designers including pieces by Pierre Balmain, Loris Azzaro and Carven.

France is home to no less than 22,000 parks and gardens of historic, botanical or scenic interest, with almost 2000 of which are classed as historic monuments. This rich heritage is being played out in an exhibition at the Galeries Nationales of the Grand Palais entitled Jardins (Gardens), which takes a look at both the history of garden art as well as the history of exhibitions on the theme. The show brings together a fine assembly of paintings, sculptures, photographs, drawings, and films demonstrating in a collage-like setting how the garden is a complete work of art stimulating all of the senses. The show focuses on experiments carried out in Europe and more specifically in France from the Renaissance to the current day concerning plants and gardens, with perceptions moving from a notion of plants as being useful to something that could be collected.

he wonderful world of cinema can be discovered right in Paris at La Cinémathèque française, home to one of the finest collections and archives in the world devoted to film. It was back in 1936 that Henri Langlois, a French film archivist, cinephile and a pioneer in film preservation, created La Cinémathèque française to save from destruction films, projection machines, costumes, posters and other cinematic treasures. He would be given an Honorary Oscar in 1974, “for his untiring devotion to the art of film, for his massive contributions towards preserving its historical past and for his unswerving faith in its future.”
©Stéphane Dabrowski/La Cinémathèque française
Eight decades later the world of cinema that Langlois endeavoured to conserve lives on in a light-filled modern building designed by Frank O. Gehry in which the world of motion pictures is revealed through a museum, exhibitions, projections, a film library and bookshop. It offers a complete cinematic experience for film lovers and is a perfect place for neophytes to discover cinema of the world, of all ages and of all genres.
projection machines and cameras, accessories and costumes), as it does to films. La Cinémathèque’s Musée du Cinéma exhibits some 600 objects enabling visitors to journey over three centuries into the universe of animated images. Magic Lanterns, optical boxes as well as costumes worn by, among others, Vivien Leigh and Greta Garbo, are on hand as well as a host of extraordinary objects, notably the robot from Metropolis by Fritz Lang and the head of Mrs Bates in Psycho by Alfred Hitchcock. Temporary exhibitions devoted to major figures in film are regularly presented as well showcasing the links that cinema maintains with the other arts and the shows have honoured, among others, Tim Burton, François Truffaut, Jacques Tati, Stanley Kubrick and Martin Scorsese. The current show, running through to July 31st, is dedicated to the American filmmaker Gus Van Sant who is honoured for his movies
like Elephant, Good Will Hunting, Milk, as well as his paintings, photographs, music and artistic collaborations. Some 40 films are projected each week at La Cinémathèque française in the establishment’s four movie theatres with programmes revolving around major directors, actors and technicians but also the young generation of filmmakers. A host of activities including conferences and master classes are also organised around the projection programmes. There is also an excellent restaurant serving homemade dishes using seasonal products. The current temporary exhibition, entitled Mômes & Cie, meaning Kids & Company, explores how children and childhood are portrayed in cinema. The show runs through to July 30th.

Visitors enter the Gehry building, which is built around a monumental hall that is thoroughly drenched by incoming light and outfitted with large bay windows and small balconies, and within will discover collections where over 40,000 films, 3000 costumes, 23,000 posters, 14,000 drawings and 2,300 objects are conserved.

Perusing Picasso The exhibition space at the Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport is hosting a show devoted to Pablo Picasso, entitled Picasso. The Sunlit Years. The show brings together 35 original works reflecting the artist’s relationship to the French Riviera where he lived after World War II discovering the region’s sun and its mythological lore. The exhibition, which was conceived by the Musée National Picasso-Paris, aims to restore the deep and happy connection that Picasso finds between his region of adoption and the ancient world of the Mediterranean. Picasso made regular stays to the French Riviera from the 1920s onwards, setting up his studio in the fall of 1946 in the castle museum of Antibes. He moved to Vallauris in May of 1948, close to potters practicing the ancient art of ceramics. Images of Bacchanalia and the Golden Age, which emanates from Greek mythology and legend, would grace his works underscoring the history and mythology of the Mediterranean coast.

An enchanted world of fruits, flowers and beings with fanciful forms is unfolding at the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature, a unique museum devoted to nature and hunting nestled in the Marais. The show, entitled En Plein Coeur (Right at the Heart), brings together the fanciful ceramic works and paintings by French artist Marlène Mocquet. The 28 sculptures made for the most part at the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres (France’s national porcelain and ceramic manufacture) and 27 paintings are interspersed within the museum’s permanent collections. The flora and fauna that emerge from the artist’s imagination and art and craftsmanship offer a rich, colourful and aesthetic visual experience. A guided visit animated by the artist is slated to be held on May 4th at 8pm. Meanwhile, the museum is also hosting a show entitled Unleashed, juxtaposing the works of photographer Roger Ballen with the drawings of Hans Lemmen, evoking the world of animals.

Al Fresco Dining Spring is in the air and that means one of our favourite seasonal restaurants is reopening. The 10th of this month will mark the reopening La Cour Jardin, the Plaza Athénée Hotel’s patio restaurant, which opens for the warmer months only. Nestled in the heart of the hotel, the patio is a magical place, with its hanging garden and open-air breeze. One of the most iconic Parisian restaurants, La Cour Jardin is perfect for a sophisticated lunch after shopping along Avenue Montaigne or for a romantic dinner for two. This year chef Mathieu Emeraud has put together the perfect summer menu with dishes including a cream of green pea soup garnished with an almond royale, and grilled sea bass served with a Mediterranean medley of zucchini and olives, while pastry chef Angelo Musa has created a menu with fruit-based options that will change throughout the season, bringing diners a sweet yet bikini-friendly treats to end a perfect meal with. - S.I.

Sushi for One The French stock exchange no longer occupies the elegant pillared limestone 19th century Palais Brongniart in the heart of Paris, but an influx of web start-ups are giving life to this quartier, which explains why it’s suddenly filled with new restaurants. One of the best is the excellent Yoko Bourse from the city’s stylish Black Code group. It’s just the place you want to go to for a good uncomplicated meal of beautifully made sushi and perfectly prepared tempura, among other offers, at the end of a busy day of sightseeing, in meetings, or shopping. It’s also an ideal address for anyone dining solo who wants some place quiet and accommodating of people on their own. The handsome dining room with brass-and-milk glass sconces, oak tables and a black-granite counter from which you watch the sushi masters is well-lit and service is prompt and charming. – Alexander Lobrano Yoko Bourse 3 rue de la Bourse (2nd), 01 85 73 41 29 w w w.wh e re t r ave l e r. com 65

Fine Dining Near the Arc Many travellers to Paris know that the city’s gastronomic axis has shifted to eastern districts like the 11th, 12th, and 19th arrondissements where low rents make it easy for young chefs to set up shop. But where do you go if you want to sample some of the best of the new creative contemporary French cooking in Paris without travelling across town? That’s easy. Restaurant Alan Geaam, which just opened near the Arc de Triomphe. For those who don’t know, Geaam, a charming man who was born in Liberia to Lebanese parents before living in the Czech Republic, the U.S., and Italy, arrived in Paris twenty years ago with no French and a pittance in his pockets. Today, due to what he calls “the French Dream,” he’s the proprietor of L’Auberge Nicolas Flamel, the oldest restaurant in the city, AG Saint-Germain, AG Les Halles, and his latest, Restaurant Alain Geaam. Hard-working Geaam explains that the point of his new table is to allow him to do food that’s more gastronomically ambitious than in his other very good restaurants. The two tasting menus change often, but a recent seven-course tasting menu began with a wonderfully classic dish of asparagus, morels and breaded deep-fried quail’s egg with Hollandaise sauce, and continued with a langoustine ravioli with garnishes of Nori seaweed and a langoustine-head sauce seasoned with Vietnamese cardamom. Then monkfish seasoned with vadouvan (a French curry blend that includes curry leaves, mustard seeds, fenugreek and other spices) to give the monkfish some character was served before pigeon roasted with pomegranate molasses, a common Middle Eastern condiment, and then an assortment of perfectly aged cheeses from Bernard Antony, the celebrated Alsatian cheesemonger, with date chutney. Given the quality of the cooking and the service here, even if it’s not cheap, this is one of the best-value addresses in Paris right now. – A.L. Restaurant Alan Geaam 19 rue Lauriston (16th), 01 45 01 72 97
Many visitors to Paris feel a little guilty after they’ve been in town for a couple of days and find themselves wanting something other than French food. To this quandary, I say, No worries! Paris increasingly has foreign tables that are as worthy of your attention as its storied bistros and brasseries of yore. A great example of how cosmopolitan the city’s become when it sits down to eat is Tavline, an excellent casual little Israeli restaurant in the Marais. Tavline means herb in Hebrew, and once you’ve tasted Israeli-Moroccan chef Kobi Villot Malka’s cooking, you’ll know where the inspiration for this moniker came from. Malka, who cooked in various Alain Ducasse restaurants after completing his diploma at Le Cordon Bleu cooking school in Paris, approaches flavour-rich Israeli cooking with French technique. The menu evolves regularly, but don’t miss the excellent Assiette Degustation, a tasting plate of roasted beets with labnah, roasted cauliflower with a tangy pesto sauce and a vinaigrette of tomato pulp, charred eggplant with a coulis of tomatoes and pimentos, and roasted sweet potatoes with tahina. Main courses run to dishes like shakshuka, or eggs coddled in a rich stew of tomatoes and peppers, and memoulaim, or onions stuffed with lamb on a bed of barley in a ruddy sauce of roasted lamb juice brightened by sumac and pomegranate molasses. Unsurprisingly, this very reasonably priced new spot has become very popular, so make sure you book. – A.L. Tavline 25 rue du Roi de Sicile (4th), 09 86 55 65 65 66 W HE RE PA R I S I M AY 2017

Millefeuille Photo © Laurent Fau
5-Star Pastries Pastry chef Yann Couvreur made his sweet mark on the pastry world when he worked at the Prince de Galles hotel as the hotel’s pastry chef but now Yann has left the hotel business behind and has opened up his own pastry shop. Situated in the up-and-coming 10th arrondissement of the city, the pastry shop offers freshly baked scrolls, perfect layers of buttery pastry enrobing dark chocolate and pistachios, and fluffy and sweet brioche to perfectly accompany your morning or afternoon cup of coffee. The talents of the chef who seduced 5-star hotel patrons is further showcased here with a window of cakes that will leave anyone with a sweet tooth salivating, however, if a choice needs to be made, it is the chef’s famous Millefeuille. The signature dessert is made in front of your eyes with the layers of the delicate pastry mounted carefully with vanilla cream. The Millefeuille is limited to only 50 a day and is sold on the condition that it is to be devoured immediately with the chef unwilling to compromise the flaky and golden pastry becoming moist from the vanilla if it is taken away and eaten later. With such a condition you really do not need an excuse to not bite into it immediately. - S.I. Yann Couvreur 137 ave Parmentier (10th), 06 05 97 63 01

Deliciously Affordable When it comes to gastronomy, the French have a huge talent for recognising the virtues of simplicity. To wit, if you work with really good spectacular produce, it would be a shame to disguise the natural goodness of its flavours. This is the idea behind L’Atelier Carnem, which has become a standout address for good eating in a part of the Latin Quarter popular with students and tourists since it opened a few months ago. The menu features a selection of some of the world’s best beef, including sirloins steaks from Galicia (Rubia de Galicia), Australia (Riverine), New Zealand (All Black), Uruguay and several other countries, which are served with frites, salad or a mix of organic vegetables. The restaurant is the brainchild of Alexandre Pucci, who owns a neighbouring wine bar, and Luc Garnier, proprietor of the organic crepe restaurant Alizee next door, and their idea was to improve the local restaurant offering by offering exceptional quality at great prices in a handsome setting with exposed stone walls and a convivial atmosphere. They’ve succeeded beautifully, and if you’re wondering which of the special breeds of beef is the standout, I’ll give you a hint: Australia. Open daily, for lunch and dinner. – A.L. L’Atelier Carnem 5 rue du Pot de Fer (5th), 01 72 34 56 94
Occupying sleek premises with mocha leather banquettes and copper suspension lamps just off the lobby of the new Maison Albar Hotel in the Les Halles district of Paris, Odette is the latest restaurant of Caroline and Sophie Rostang, the talented daughters of chef Michel Rostang (the sisters are the 6th generation of their family to be in the restaurant business). “We wanted to create some conviviality here,” says Caroline Rostang, explaining why the menu has many dishes that are meant to be shared, including an excellent veal chop for two and sea bass cooked in pastry. The Rostangs have succeeded, too, since this new table is not only popular with hotel guests, but a growing crowd of regulars who live in the surrounding neighbourhood. It’s these stylish young Parisians, in fact, who give the place its atmosphere, and they love dishes like carrots roasted with bergamot and crushed hazelnuts, burrata with mustard greens and oregano, foie gras en brioche with date chutney and marinated salmon with quinoa and cranberries in a citrus sauce. Cheeses come from one of the best fromagers in Paris, Martine Dubois, and desserts are inventive and alluring, too, including coffee crème brûlée with banana mousse and caramelised apples with shiso sorbet. – A.L.

Eat well and healthy
By Sandra Iskander
With the promise of warmer days comes the urge to eat clean, and while it isn’t always easy to do in the culinary capital where butter is a key ingredient in pretty much every dish we have managed to find a few establishments where you will find healthy options and still feel satisfied after your meal.
For vegetarians, vegans and anyone preferring to eat organic and gluten-free, Paris isn’t always easy, however, the good news is Parisians are slowly embracing a healthier lifestyle and Wild & The Moon, which first opened up in Dubai, has come to the City of Light. Focusing on offering customers delicious dishes without nasty additives, Wild & The Moon serves up organic cold-pressed juices, salads and sandwiches all made using local and ethically sourced ingredients. Perfect for breakfast, lunch or something to eat on the run, the menu includes buckwheat granola with dried fruit and seeds and served with almond milk, La Sicilia, a ready-toeat quinoa salad with olives capers and pine nuts, and a focaccia sandwich made with seasonal vegetables and vegan mayonnaise. Everything here is gluten, dairy and refined sugar free. Wild & The Moon 55 rue Charlot (3rd), 01 86 95 40 46
Another great address for gluten-free and vegan visitors is Juice It. This healthy take-away juice bar offers coldpressed juices as well as ready-made salads. Juice It also prepares two hot dishes every day that change on a regular basis but could include a spicy lentil dhal. Everything here is organic, vegan and gluten-free bar a daily quiche made especially for the yet to be converted Parisians. Visitors with a sweet tooth should not miss the Bliss Balls, which are, for a lack of a better word, just bliss for when you’re craving something sweet. Made with coconut, honey, dates and vanilla, they are a vegan’s equivalent to rum balls. Juice It 32 rue Jean Mermoz (8th), 01 72 38 24 24
While some health food eateries don’t offer a well-todo décor, Juvia proves that you can eat green without compromising creature comforts like a contemporary décor to appease the eyes. It’s easy to stay on the right path to clean eating here with the house’s Détox salad, which mixes quinoa, crabmeat, lettuce and juicy Granny Smith apples, making it low in calories and gluten-free.

Big Love Cocktails The 10th arrondissement is fast becoming the fashion world’s go-to for the coolest bars and true to form for fashionable addresses most of these places are so off-the-beaten track that unless you know where to find them you will be none the wiser. One of said hottest addresses is the Hôtel Grand Amour where designers, fashion editors and artists have made it their cocktail rendezvous during Paris Fashion Week. The bar/restaurant is not only great for people watching but it also boasts a cocktail menu with plenty of original drinks to choose from including the Rosemary Gin made with gin, lemon juice, rosemary syrup for an original herby twist, and cucumber. The best seat in the house is in the patio with fairy lights twinkling above your heads. Hôtel Grand Amour 18 rue de la Fidélité (10th), 01 44 16 03 30
Our favourite bar at the moment is Da Nico, and it is not because it is found at one of our favourite restaurants, it is because this speakeasy bar offers patrons quite the original cocktail menu thanks to the talents of mixologist Nico de Soto, who updates his offerings on a regular basis. The bar is hidden behind the lush velvety curtains at the back of Daroco, the Italian restaurant that was formerly Jean Paul Gaultier’s boutique. Once you make yourself through the restaurant and push the curtains to the side you will walk into the contemporary bar, both in décor and its cocktail offerings. Travelling the world and staying ahead of cocktail trends has given Nico the unique talent of making drinks with interesting ingredients, and the result is a menu that includes cocktails with fun names and surprising mixes such as the Vodka Not Too Sweet made with vodka, green tea, kale, lemon juice and quinoa. The bar is open daily from 6pm to 2am and is perfect for drinks before or after dinner. Da Nico 6 rue Vivienne (2nd), 01 42 21 93 71 80 W HE RE PA R I S I M AY 2017

As tourists or expats in Paris there are some quirks we have all noticed among the Parisians, the way they march to their destinations, their constant pouting and the way they order at restaurants. Olivier Giraud has too, noticed that the Parisians are unique in their behaviour, and has decided to bring all those idiosyncrasies to light. Born in Bordeaux, Olivier moved to Paris to study hotel management and after graduating he moved to the Unites States where he managed a restaurant of a 5-star hotel. After four years, and many soul-searching nights, he decided to return
to France and follow his real dream of becoming a comedian. Having experienced the cultural differences between the Parisians and Americans while in Florida, and having observed for himself the tourists of all nationalities in Paris, he decided to not shy away from the hard-hitting questions of how one becomes a real Parisian. How do you grab a waiter’s attention in a café? In the metro, what do you do if you see an older lady or a pregnant woman? And how do you behave in a cab? Putting together a one man show, How to become Parisian in one hour?, the stand-up
comic will leave you rolling in your seat from laughter and 100% prepared for any situation in the City of Light. Entirely performed in English, it is a great show for everyone, including Parisians who will no doubt get a good laugh at themselves. It is not an easy feat to master the Parisian attitude but Olivier has put together a fail-proof guideline of French etiquette that will leave you embracing the oh la la factor. Non-stop laughter from a real Parisian guaranteed to leave you wanting more. This is THE PERFECT GUIDE to enjoy Paris and the Parisians!

NAVIGATE
Paris Metro Paris is crossed by 14 Métro lines and five RER (express suburban) lines, all numbered and named for their final destination (terminus). Did you know that there are 300 stations that make up Paris’ metro system?
88 W HE RE PA R I S I M AY 2017
Each Métro trip requires one ticket regardless of how many transfers you make, though you must buy an extra ticket for the RER outside the city limits. Keep your ticket until you exit.
Tickets are sold in all stations and in cafés (tabacs) with a ticket sign outside, single (1.90€/2€ if purchased on a bus) or by 10 (un carnet - 14.50€). This map includes the new tramway line.
“Paris Visite” passes offer unlimited travel on the Métro and buses (1-day, 2-day, 3-day, 5-day). The Métro and RER start running at 5:30am, and stop around 1 am.
While the Métro is an extremely safe way to travel, watch out for pickpockets in crowded trains and stations. For information in English, call the transportation company (RATP) directly at 08.92.68.41.14.

VICTOR REGO
HEAD CONCIERGE AT HOTEL DU COLLECTIONNEUR
If one of our readers is only in Paris for 24 hours what one thing would you recommend they do? I would advise them to extend their stay by one more day! Breakfast at Carette, enjoy the view of the Left Bank from the esplanade, cross the River Seine and visit the Eiffel Tower, zoom off to Saint-Germain for a light bite at Café de Flore or Deux Magots, then visit the Notre-Dame Cathedral. Change banks and head to the Louvre to pay a visit to Mona Lisa. It will then be teatime, or more likely hot chocolate time at Angelina found two steps from the Louvre. Take the opportunity to walk inside the Tuileries gardens and along the Avenue des Champs-Elysées until the Arc de Triomphe. And finally, end up at Hotel du Collectionneur for a relaxing dinner in a New Orleans atmosphere at the Safran restaurant. For our readers who are looking for a traditional Parisian bistro serving authentic French fare, where would you book them a table? I do believe in authentic French gastronomy values. Le Violon d’Ingres is for me the most representative of authentic French cuisine. It’s not always easy for our readers to find somewhere fun to head to at 2am, where would you recommend they party till dawn? At 2am the night is still young in Paris, especially next to the Arc de Triomphe. L’Arc nightclub is a nightlife must do. 90 W HE RE PA R I S I M AY 2017

Jules Verne
Notre-Dame Cathedral
Paris is well-known for its magnificent monuments, from where would you suggest our readers get the best view of the city? When it comes to the best view from a Parisian monument, the answer, without a doubt is from the Eiffel Tower. Afraid of the line? Ask your concierge, as he or she will surely have a solution for you.
What is a location in Paris that pleasantly surprised you? The deluxe trattoria, Caffè Artcurial, which in my opinion is worth some certain stars, where chef Enrico Einaudi delivers a fabulous taste of Italy.
As the fashion capital, which areas do you think showcase the best fashions? Everywhere in Paris, but certainly much more on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, Avenue Montaigne and lately along Boulevard Saint-Germain. For a couple in love where would you recommend they go for a romantic dinner? The second floor of the Eiffel Tower offers one of the most romantic dinner places in town, at the Jules Verne. Starting with the private lift of the restaurant (South pillar of the tower), astonishing view of the city and an amazing menu, these are the keys for a successful romantic dinner. What have you recently discovered in Paris that you would advise guests to see? Usually forgotten by our visitors, the east part of Paris does offer some hidden treasures. Musée des Arts Forains is one of them, two steps away from Bercy Village, this museum is dedicated to old fairground arts and is an interactive surprising travelling time machine.
Where would you recommend our readers to celebrate a birthday party or a bachelor/ bachelorette party? For the ladies, an afternoon spent in a spa followed by a karaoke evening at Bam Karaoke Box. For the gentlemen, dinner at Nos Ancêtres les Gaulois, to feast all evening. Where is one of the areas in Paris that is ideal for a leisurely stroll? Along Canal Saint-Martin between Republique and Quai de Valmy. The atmosphere of that pedestrian area on weekends punctuated by several boat locks and bistro terraces will provide you a more authentic view of our capital.
My perfect day 9am: A ristretto at the Purple Bar, outside on the terrace 12pm: Lunch at Parc Monceau with the sun shining down on me 3pm: A little chat with a regular guest about newest play or restaurant in town to see 9pm: After work drinks at Le Valois with office colleagues
