The Living Heritage of France Comes Alive in PAris And Beyond By Patricia Valicenti

F

ine fragrances, sparkling crystal, superb leather goods, high jewellery, and even Parisian paper are just some of the arts, crafts and professions fashioned and played out in France, and even in Paris itself.

“Glass is a marvellous material,” the great glass and jewellery designer Réné Lalique would say. And today the name of Lalique evokes the sparkle of jewellery and the brilliance of crystal. As the jeweller’s passion for glass grew he sought to find an appropriate location in an area with a workforce qualified in the field. This led him to eastern France, to Alsace, a region with a strong and historic glassmaking tradition where he founded his glassworks in 1921 in the town of Wingen-sur-Moden and where they are still located to this day, the only Lalique manufacture in the world, and where the homeware collections, crystal jewellery and the special commissions are fashioned. Recent collections include the Flûte Enchantée (The Magic Flute) fine jewellery collection celebrating the National Opera of Paris, with themes revolving around Mozart’s last opera with its pieces centred on crystal cabochons. The high jewellery pieces and jewellery pieces by jeweller and gemmologist Brigitte Ermel are fashioned in her workshop on Rue Saint-Honoré in Paris where no less than 15 jewellery craftsmen work with her as the pieces take shape. The house of Brigitte Ermel Paris was founded in 1992, and the jeweller, a trained gemmologist works with rare and exceptional stones, favouring colours that are intense. She uses stones that she hand picks herself as the centrepieces of her works, which draw inspiration from nature and its elements and talisman and their magic powers. Earrings in rubellite, diamonds and yellow gold and a matching cocktail ring in the same materials are among her creations. The designer also fashions pieces for men like a pair of cufflinks in diamonds and white gold and a matching tie clip. On another Parisian note, the Réunion des Musées NationauxGrand Palais in conjunction with the Ville de Paris (City of Paris) has brought out a handsome collection of stationary, Papeterie Ville de Paris, with Paris themes distributed in the museum boutiques of the Musées Nationaux and the boutique of the City of Paris. It is composed of an assortment of notebooks and exercise books in four sizes, note pads, To Do Lists, pencils, folders and attaché cases made by five manufactures in Paris and the greater Paris region with each house offering its specific skill. Printed and fashioned in the manufacture of PPA.èsPrint in Montreuil the paper collection is made from chlorine-free paper emanating from sustainably managed forests bearing the Imprim’Vert Label. Meanwhile, the line benefits from the exceptional know-how of the Parisian house of Créanog, a master art and craft house that has been distinguished

with the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant label meaning a Living Heritage Company, a mark of recognition of the French state for French firms for the excellence of their tradition and industrial know-how. Heading south, it is in the luminous light of the French Riviera that the quintessentially French fragrances of the house of Fragonard have been fashioned for four generations. The laboratories and manufacture are located in the town of Grasse itself surrounded by the flowers that have supplied perfumemakers for centuries. The House of Fragonard was born in the heart of this historic perfume-making region in 1926, founded by Eugène Fuchs who wanted to pay tribute to the great French painter Jean-Honoré Fragonard. Today,

his great granddaughters are at the helm of the company, the Costa sisters, and it remains one of the last family-owned perfume factories in Grasse. The house’s first fragrance Moment Volé (Stolen Moment) was brought out in 1929 with its carnation base and this year Pivoine (Peony) joins the repertoire of some 50 fragrances and eau de toilettes for men and women.

The House of Létrange produces resolutely modern leather handbags today but its roots go back to the 19th century when it was founded in Paris in 1838 by a talented saddle-maker named Auguste Lespiaut who would be succeeded by his son-in-law Armand Létrange who could count among his clients Jules Verne. Létrange luggage even went all the way to Antarctica with Commander Jean-Baptiste Charcot in 1908 who

Ultimately luxurious custom-made shoes are on-hand at the Maison Corthay, which was established in 1990 by Pierre Corthay and who in 2008 received the distinction of Maître d’Art or master of his art from the French Ministry of Culture and today remains the only men’s bootmaker to bear it. While clients can come to the Paris shop for made-to-measure for fittings, the shoes are fashioned in the Maine-et-Loire region of France in the village of Beaupréau where a team of 20 craftsmen carefully make the shoes, bespoke and ready-to-wear, from the finest of leathers. Diverse patinas are the specialty of the house and the house often says of itself, “Colour, It’s Corthay”. The house’s emblematic and iconic models include a derby, a moccasin, the Chelsea boot and Corthay’s Casanova. In addition to the shoes for men, the house also fashions bags and belts in fine leathers.

carried his equipment in Létrange luggage for his second polar expedition. After World War II the house expanded into textiles focusing on luxury shirts until 2007. In 2014 Sébastien Létrange, from the family’s seventh generation, set about bringing Létrange back to life. He joined forces with Mathias Jaquemet

who had previously worked at Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior, naming him artistic director and the house is today once again producing a leather goods collection of fine bags fashioned in two manufactures in France, one near Vichy and the other near Besançon.

Worlds unbound, precious paintings, Degas’s take on dance, the world view of Leonardo da Vinci, magical paintings from Picasso, atmospheric antiquity, an electric palette and fun and fabulous footwear are just some of the themes abounding in a host of exciting exhibitions underway in the French capital.

A

n ethereal and dreamy exhibition, entitled From the Douanier Rousseau to Séraphine, the Marvellous World of the Naives, is unfolding at the Musée Maillol through to January 19th. More than 100 works by the Naive painters, also called Modern Primitives, are on show. These artists are often selftaught and lack formal training and created works featuring extreme detail and bright, saturated colours. One of the most well-known is the French artist Henri Rousseau called Le Douanier Rousseau whose fantastic jungle scenes and exotic luxuriant vegetation transport. Another characteristic of naive painting is the absence of perspective, which creates the illusion that the figures are floating like the cats and monkey in the portrait of Paul Léautaud by Ferdinand Desnos. The exhibition presents the works of Le Douanier Rousseau and Séraphine Louis as well as lesser-known naive artists, like Camille Bombois and René Rimbert. These works also shed light on a little-known segment of the history of art between the two wars.

of da Vinci’s artistic practices and pictorial technique. Tickets must be reserved in advance. Works from the Alana Collection, one of the most precious and secretive private collections of art of the Italian Renaissance in the world, is being presented at the Musée JacquemartAndré-Institut de France. Mirroring the museum’s exceptional collection of Italian art, the show, running through to January 20th, brings together 75 masterpieces by the great Italian masters including Fra Angelico, Uccello and Bellini. The show

One of the hottest shows in town is devoted to Leonardo da Vinci to mark the 500th anniversary of the death of the artist in France, the Louvre is holding a major retrospective devoted to his entire career as a painter showing through to February 24th. The exhibition revolves around the Louvre’s own collection of five paintings, the largest in the world, and its 22 drawings, and presents some 120 works including paintings, drawings, manuscripts and sculptures emanating from prestigious American and European collections. The show aims to illustrate how da Vinci placed the utmost importance on paintings and is the culmination of more than 10 years of work including new scientific examinations of the Louvre’s paintings allowing for a better understanding w w w. p a r i s m a p. fr 17

The show, which is organised by the Musée d’Orsay and the Musée d’Orangerie along with the National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C., brings together dozens of his works including the most celebrated like the Harlequin, the Orchestra of the Opera and paintings depicting the ballet lessons, one of his favourite subjects.

marks a unique occasion for the visitor to see for the first time this ensemble of paintings, sculptures, and objets d’art, which has never been exhibited to the public before. The collection is the fruit of rigorous selection as well as a love of art of Alvaro Saieh and Ana Guzmán, whose combined first names form the name of the collection, which is conserved in the United States. The Paris Opera and Edgar Degas are intrinsically entwined and to mark the 350th anniversary of the Paris Opera, an exhibition entitled Degas at the Opera is being held at the Musée d’Orsay through to January 19th. Throughout his entire career from his debut in the 1860s to his final works after 1900, the focal point of his work would be on the Opera and everything within including the boxes, the foyer and dance studios, singers, musicians, dancers and audience members. The venue provided him with infinite possibilities for perspectives, for 18 W H E R E PA R I S I N O V E M B E R 2019

Between the summer of 1926 and the spring of 1930, Pablo Picasso created a vast and cohesive ensemble of paintings that the art critic Christian Zervos would name “magical paintings” starting in 1938. Picasso would experiment with different art forms in these works filled with strange figures, opening a new chapter in his creativity, probing into a deeper dimension already announcing what would become the power of Guernica. The Musée National Picasso Paris is showcasing these works through to February 23rd in a show entitled Magical Paintings, setting them within terms of the artist’s development and as well within the context of the Surrealism that was contemporary at the time and psychology and the interest some writers, like Zervos, had in the magical powers of art. Some of the works on display are as radical as anything he had done before including experimentation with materials and the undertaking of monumental sculptural ideas in paint. Meanwhile, an intriguing show is on at the Institut du Monde Arabe entitled Arabe AlUla. Marvel of Arabia inviting visitors to discover the wealth of AlUla, one of world’s leading archaeological regions, an oasis with a history that spans 7000 years and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Myriad civilisations and societies lived here ranging from the Neolithic peoples to the Nabatean civilisation, the Roman Empire and the Ottomans. The natural and human heritage of the region is the focus of the show, which is on through to January 19th, bringing together rare archaeological objects, digital displays and videos. The first

The second part of the exhibition presents the results of archaeological digs by a Franco-Saudi team. On show at the Grand Palais is a retrospective devoted to El Greco, the first major exhibition in France of the works of the artist described as the first great painter of the Golden Age and the last great master of the Renaissance. Doménikos Theotokópoulos, known as El Greco, was born in Crete in 1541 and undertook his initial apprenticeship in the Byzantine tradition before refining his skills in Venice and Rome, yet it was in Spain that his art flourished. He would invent forms of his own, developed bold and innovative compositions and an electric palette. The show is running through to February 10th. A fun and fascinating show showcasing footwear is opening up on November 7th at the MAD, the museum devoted to the decorative arts. Entitled Marche et Démarche (Walk and the

Way One Walks), it focuses in the shoe, which is a daily essential by taking a look at how we have walked from the Middle Ages to the present in both Western and non-European cultures and how men, women and children have walked through time and their diverse cultures. Running through to February 23rd, the show brings together more than 500 works, including shoes, paintings, photographs, objects, films and ads emanating from public and private French and foreign collections, offering an intriguing insight into this piece of clothing that is basic but extraordinary.

New Boutiques

Manolo Blahnik in Paris Palais Royal just got a little bit sexier thanks to the arrival of the new Manolo Blahnik boutique. The high-end house, famous for its gorgeous shoes, has finally opened its first boutique in the fashion capital, choosing the iconic Palais Royal as its chic address. Under the royal arcades, the boutique showcases its colourful collection of shoes, ranging from sexy stilettoes to elegant boots. This new address for the luxurious house also marks the first time the men’s collection is made available in France, which gentlemen can find on the first floor. - S.I. Manolo Blahnik Boutique 11-12 Galerie de Montpensier (1st), 01 40 26 10 78

Scent With Love Step back in time by stepping into D’Orsay’s recently inaugurated boutique where the perfume house’s founder, Alfred d’Orsay, and his soul mate, Marguerite Blessington, are celebrated. Founded in 1830, D’Orsay’s perfume selection of five unisex scents is delightful with names including Quelque chose dans l’air (Something in the Air). There are also five home scents available with equally romance-conjuring names such as 3.50am Comme la dernière fois (Like Last Time) and 9.30pm Sous les draps (Under the Sheets). Inspired by travels, soul mates and keeping in touch, the boutique is a reminder of a time when writing and sending love letters, with words enveloped in perfumes sent as a souvenir, were a way of putting emotions into words. The magical boutique of the French perfume house, Bureau Postal D’Orsay (D’Orsay Post Office), brings back that romance by displaying letterboxes where you can “send” your love notes, along with your personal scent. The boutique has stationery for shoppers to write their love letters on that they can then place in one of the numbered letterboxes before informing their intendeds in which box they can discover their old-fashioned letter. - S.I. Bureau Postal D’Orsay Boutique 44 rue du Bac (7th), 01 43 25 57 02 w w w. p a r i s m a p. fr 21

SHOPPING For Him

We All Live in a Yellow Submarine Yesterday is today’s fashion with Stella McCartney drawing inspiration from the movie Yellow Submarine, in which The Beatles starred, including of course the designer’s father, Paul McCartney. The collection, All Together Now, is a colourful mix of winter pieces for gentlemen who are not only fans of The Beatles but who are also looking to add a pop of colour to their style. Tailored jackets and coats feature a wonderful work of patches and pop-art portraits of the band members, while shirts and t-shirts are printed with colourful graphics that celebrate the essence of the band with messages of love, hope and a whole lot of nostalgia. - S.I. Stella McCartney Boutique 114-121 Galerie de Valois (1st), 01 47 03 03 80

A Shoe In Ready-to-wear brand Balibaris prides itself on offering fashionable gentlemen a collection of affordable pieces that easily mix and match, and that are easily dressed up or down. This season Balibaris has introduced the Malibu trainers, a staple in every man’s wardrobe. The trainers are available in smooth cognac-coloured leather, suede in a smoked tobacco hue and classic white leather. With sneakers becoming today’s go-to pair of shoes, the Malibu trainers are an ideal choice for smartening up any look. - S.I. Balibaris Boutique 117 rue Vieille du Temple (3rd), 01 44 78 17 78

SHOPPING For Her

The Opulence of Opal Harry Winston has brought out its Premier Hypnotic Opal Mosaic Automatic 36mm watch crafted in 18-carat white gold, a profusion of baguette-cut diamonds and vivid blue sapphires swirling against an opal background. It is a timepiece that celebrates Mr Winston’s passion for motion and colour in fine jewellery. The colour blue, so dominant in the watch notably on the dial, is a hallmark of the house as are the way in which the diamonds are transformed into three-dimensional jewellery sculptures. The sparkling blue and green background on the dial is crafted from iridescent opal, a gemstone whose colours vary depending upon the light. The watch, which has been brought out within the Harry Winston The Premier Collection has a power reserve of 72 hours and is outfitted with a strap in blue pearl alligator leather, which in turn is outfitted with an 18-carat white gold buckle set with 28 baguettecut diamonds. The timepiece has been brought out in a limited edition of eight watches. - P.V. Harry Winston Boutique 29 ave Montaigne (8th), 01 47 20 03 09

Italian jewellery designer Angela Caputi set up her workshop in Florence in 1975 where she embarked on creating colourfully original pieces. Today, she has her gallery-like jewellery boutique here in Paris where you can find her unique designs. Her latest collection, Bionda, meaning Blondie in Italian, is a warm mixture of honey tones, bringing the autumnal warmth to your jewellery collection. Making up part of the Bionda collection is this eye-catching necklace designed with tortoiseshell and resin with a pearly finish, and with its geometric design, the necklace is quite the striking statement-making accessory. - S.I.

Renoma, A Return A highly intriguing exhibition event is unfolding inside Sacré revolving around the photographs and videos of Maurice Renoma, fashion designer, photographer and scenographer. His works line the entrance hallway, restaurant gallery, bar, concert hall and enclosed smoking space of this white walled venue offering up a new concept, a gallery club. The sensual, fun and fashion photographs emerge from Renoma’s most emblematic theme and bring to mind his exhibitions from 20 years ago in the trendiest spots in the French capital, Les Bains, the Queen and the Man Ray. A focal point is his Last Supper photograph of stars replete with Andy Warhol, Lou Reed and Iggy Pop. Here in Sacré the artistic world of Renoma joins forces with a Parisian nightspot offering a cultural rendezvous for all. The nightclub, which is private, is open to the public for the duration of the exhibition. - P.V.

Myriad Mondrians The captivating works of Piet Mondrian are the object of an exhibition at the Musée Marmottan Monet entitled Figurative Mondrian bringing together nearly 70 of his works all regarded as masterpieces. Nearly half of the works have never been seen in Paris before and the show offers the ultimate opportunity to see his Mill in the Sunlight, which will never travel again because of its fragility. Salomon Slijper, a major collector of his works amassed a unique ensemble of the Dutch master’s paintings and drawings from his figurative period and the works on show, through an exceptional loan from the Kunstmuseum in The Hague, emanate from his collection, which he left to the museum. The exhibition presents Mondrian’s landscapes often limited to a few themes, windmills, farms, flowers and portraits, followed by a section juxtaposing his figurative works with the abstract ones and winding up with a self-portrait and depictions of flowers. - P.V.

They are one of the most distinctive, graceful and highly specialised orders of mammals, mammals that are swimming through the seas and at times rivers. They include the blue whale, the highly intelligent, gregarious and communicative dolphins, the narwhals with their mysterious tusks and the humpback whales who sing. The Cetacea comprise nearly eighty living species and the Aquarium Tropical in the Palais de la Porte Dorée is devoting an exhibition to these fascinating animals entitled Baleinopolis, baleine being the French word for whale. The show brings together objects, videos, sound and interactive displays taking the visitor into an exceptional world that is often inaccessible. The exhibition, illustrated with the research and commentaries of renowned scientists and exceptional photographs, explores how these mammals are organised into societies, delves into their communities, their common culture and winds up with a section devoted to ways of protecting the seas, their habitat. The show focuses on four emblematic species of Cetacea, dolphins, humpback whales, sperm whales and killer whales. - P.V. Showing through to June 8th 293 ave Daumesnil (12th), 01 53 59 58 60

A Time for Trees

A pivotal exhibition devoted to some of the oldest inhabitants of our planet, trees, is being held at the Fondation Cartier for Contemporary Art, which has brought together a community of artists, botanists and philosophers to showcase the latest scientific research concerning trees through art works, installations and dialogues. Entitled We the Trees, the show intertwines the reflections of artists and researchers while exploring ecological questions and the relationship between man and nature. The show brings together a host of works in various mediums, drawings, paintings, photographs, films and installations, by artists from around the world, including representatives of indigenous communities. On show are the highly detailed plates of the French botanist Francis Hallé along with the luxuriant landscape paintings of tropical worlds by Brazilian artist Luiz Zerbini. The unique garden of the Fondation Cartier offers a natural prolongation of the exhibition outdoors. - P.V. Showing through to January 5th 261 blvd Raspail (14th), 01 42 18 56 50

The Lasting Legacy of Lacloche An exhibition devoted to the Maison Lacloche, once one of the French capital’s celebrated jewellery houses, is underway at the L’Ecole, School of Jewelry Arts, which is supported by Van Cleef & Arpels. The house of Lacloche was established on Rue de la Paix in 1901 and was active from the Belle Epoque to the 1960s. Lacloche Frères and later Jacques Lacloche created jewellery for royalty notably Queen Victoria of Spain, Edward VII of England, the kings of Greece and Siam as well as for aristocratic figures like the Duchess of Windsor and Hollywood stars including Grace Kelly. This marks the first time that an exhibition has been dedicated to Lacloche and the show brings together jewellery, clocks, both large and small, and vanity cases, the house’s specialty while illustrating various trends like Egyptomania and a penchant for the Far East. - P.V.

ARTS&ATTRACTIONS

Into the Mysteries of the Middle Ages The Musée de Cluny, the national museum devoted to the Middle Ages, is presenting an exhibition revolving around etchings by Jean d’Ypres, a major artist of the end of the 15th century. Jean d’Ypres would sketch the preparatory drawings for the famous Lady and the Unicorn tapestries, which are conserved in the Cluny, and the etchings, tapestries and stained glass based on his drawings are among the masterpieces of the last decades of the Middle Ages. A number of engravings based on originals by Jean d’Ypres were discovered glued to the inside of miniature chests, which were made of light weight yet solid beech wood, covered in leather, adorned with iron and outfitted with locks whose mechanism remained a secret. The show, entitled Mysterious Chests, Etchings in the Days of The Lady and the Unicorn, brings together some 100 works including some 30 of the miniature chests, engravings, tapestries, stained glass and objects. - P.V. Showing through to January 6th 28 rue du Sommerard (5th), 01 53 73 78 00

The Enchanted Forest An exhibition evoking the fascination, fear and enchantment provoked by the forest is underway at the Musée Zadkine. Featuring works by Picasso, Derain, Dubuffet and Gauguin, the show brings together 100 works in myriad mediums by some 40 artists and sheds light on the living materials in the sculptures of Ossip Zadkine and their organic link to the forest. Entitled the Rêveur de la Fôret (The Dreamer of the Forest), the show offers a journey into this refuge, alive, wild and sacred that is the forest, this forest that has escaped domestication by humans and which came before them and remains. The show’s pathway is broken down into three segments, The Edge-Genesis, The Sacred Woods and the Sleeping Woods and is peppered with a number of masterpieces including Zadkine’s Vendanges, Picasso’s Bust of a Woman and Séraphine’s highly colourful and imaginative Tree of Paradise. - P.V.

From War to Peace While the Armistice of 11 November brought the fighting to a close on the western front in World War I, peace, hopefully a lasting peace, would be the ensuing work of diplomats and politicians. It is this pivotal period in history from the armistice to the signature of the Treaty of Versailles on June 28th, 1919 that is explored in an exhibition entitled Dans les Coulisses de la Paix (Behind the Scenes of Peace) being held at the Musée de la Grande Guerre, a museum devoted to World War I. The show brings together some 130 objects including the inkwell and pen given to Georges Clemenceau to sign the treaty and fashioned by the jewellery house of Vever, the pea jacket worn by Field Marshall Foch as well as a selection of photographs, documents and archives from the period. - P.V.

ARTS&ATTRACTIONS Passageways

Panthéon

Galerie Vivienne

The picturesque passageways of Paris offer an offbeat promenade in the Parisian capital. Alternatively named “passage” or “galerie”, they are “covered” with glass roofs, which prompt the light to vary depending upon the weather, time of day and time of year. The passages were essentially constructed during two relatively brief time periods, the first from 1823 to 1828, and a second phase from 1839 to 1847. They reached their peak during the Restoration (1814-1830). Some 20 covered passageways remain today in Paris, architectural treasures of glass, steel and some fabulous décor. Within, one can find diverse boutiques, restaurants and even a museum.

GALERIE COLBERT This passageway, for which construction began in 1826, is worth a visit for its splendid architecture, which includes a rotunda and a spectacular glass cupola. This passageway, particularly its rotunda would inspire architects throughout Europe in the 19th century. 4 rue Vivienne/6 rue des Petits-Champs (2nd). M° Bourse

GALERIE DE LA MADELEINE

Inaugurated in 1826, this passageway is strategically situated near the Bourse (the stock exchange), the Bank of France and the Palais Royal and has a décor influenced by Pompeii and Herculaneum. It has two splendid caryatides, which decorate the Rue des Petits-Champs entrance, and a spectacular mosaic by Faccina, the 19th century Italian mosaic artist. 4 rue des Petits-Champs/5 rue de la Banque/6 rue Vivienne (2nd). M° Bourse

PASSAGE DU BOURG-L’ABBE Built in 1828 as a long covered promenade to avoid bad weather and heavy traffic, this passageway was restored and today its beautiful frescoes and friezes can be appreciated along with the splendid mirrors that adorn the tympanums. 120 rue Saint-Denis/3 rue de Palestro (2nd). M° Réaumur-Sébastopol

PASSAGE DU CAIRE This passageway, which opened in 1799, owes its name, which means Cairo in French, to the decorations on its splendid facade, three representations of the Egyptian goddess Hathor. 2 Place du Caire/16 rue du Caire/239 rue Saint-Denis (2nd). M° Sentier

GALERIE VIVIENNE

This passageway coincides with the place of the same name and its church, La Madeleine. It was opened in 1845 and two superb caryatides by the French sculptor Klagman frame its main entrance. 9 Place de la Madeleine/30 rue Boissy d’Anglas (8th). M° Madeleine


GALERIE VERO-DODAT This passageway is regarded as one of the most beautiful in Paris with its resplendent double marble columns that have retained their mirrors, gilt trims, splendid ceilings and a fine black and white tiled marble floor. Beautifully restored in 1997, this passageway offers the visitor a journey into the Belle Epoque. 19 rue Jean-Jacques Rousseau/Rue du Bouloi (1st). M° Louvre

Galerie Vérot-Dodat

PASSAGE CHOISEUL Built circa 1825, this passageway with its main thoroughfare measuring 190 meters in length is one of the longest in Paris. Its history is intimately linked with the theatre as it neighbours two of the most celebrated in the French capital, the Opéra Comique and the Bouffes Parisiens, the theatre of Jacques Offenbach. 40 rue des Petits Champs/23 rue Saint Augustin (2nd). M° Quatre-Septembre

PASSAGE DES PRINCES Originally called the Passage Mirès when

it opened in 1860, this passageway was restructured and rebuilt between 1992 and 1994, although its fine cupola dating from 1930 remains. 5 blvd des Italiens/97 rue de Richelieu (2nd). M° Richelieu-Drouot

Passage Jouffroy

PASSAGE VERDEAU The high glass rooftop of this passageway makes it one of the most light-filled in the French capital. A prolongation of the Passages Jouffroy and Panoramas, it was opened in 1846. 6 rue de la Grange Batelière/31bis rue du Faubourg Montmartre (9th). M° Richelieu-Drouot

PASSAGE JOUFFROY

PASSAGE DES PANORAMAS

Passage des Panoramas

This passageway, which dates back to 1799, built outside of the peak in passageway construction, is one of the oldest of the city’s passageways and has been welcoming pedestrians for over two centuries now. It will snake you under cover from the Boulevard Montmartre to Rue Saint-Marc and along the way you’ll cross over the Galerie des Variétés, the Galeries Montmartre, Feydeau and Saint-Marc. 10 rue St-Marc/11 blvd Montmartre (2nd). M° Richelieu-Drouot

Built in 1847, this passageway is one of the city’s younger passageways and is named for its architect M. Jouffroy, the son of the Marquis Jouffroy d’Abbans. Inside one finds the spectacular wax museum, the Musée Grévin, replete with its Hall of Mirrors and where French and international personalities await the visitor. 10-12 blvd Montmartre/9 rue de la Grande-Batelière (9th).

A New Table on the Left The Left Bank has recently welcomed the new branch of Le Bel Ordinaire, the popular bistro-wine bar that first gained success on the Right Bank. The low-key establishment has not strayed from its successful recipe, offering up a menu that changes with the seasons, ensuring freshness in every dish. The contemporary French cuisine here is simple and delicious, with the chef staying away from saturating each dish with too many ingredients. While the menu here changes very often it could include hard-boiled eggs drizzled with chive-flavoured mayonnaise or spaghetti tossed in a creamy herb sauce with Kalamata olives. The only downside to this otherwise great table is that the menu only offers 3 starters, 3 main dishes and 3 desserts to choose from, which at times could prove difficult for diners with certain dietary restrictions. - S.I.

Stylish Seafood Brasserie Jacques Maxim, the most distinguished seafood chef in France, has designed a superb new menu for restauranteur Alain Ducasse’s stylish seafood-oriented brasserie, Rech. It’s executed by the talented young Japanese chef Hiroyuki Kanazawa, whose dishes are served in a stylish dining room with precise but very warm service. Start with oysters, or maybe the macaronade (macaroni) garnished with mussels from the Bay of Mont Saint-Michel or fish tartare with an oyster coulis, and then try the John Dory with baby artichokes, cod with potato purée seasoned with sea urchins, or lobster with foie gras pasta. They also serve a sole sautéed in butter and a Niçoise-style John Dory for two. Rech is famous for its perfectly aged Norman camembert for those who’d like to follow with cheese, or finish up with a giant chocolate, coffee or vanilla éclair or the iced Black Forest cake. Excellent wine list, too. - Alexander Lobrano Rech 62 ave des Ternes(17th), 01 45 72 29 47 w w w. p a r i s m a p. fr 59

Dinner from the Top Le Jules Verne, the legendary restaurant with some of the best views of Paris from its perch on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, has an elegant new interior and a new chef. Chef Frédéric Anton arrived in July 2019, becoming the restaurant’s fourth chef since it opened in 1983. Anton has been chef of the romantic and gastronomically excellent Le Pré Catelan in Paris’s Bois de Boulogne park since 1997, and has placed Kevin Garcia, his former sous-chef at Le Pré Catelan, in the kitchen here. Arriving, the restaurant has been elegantly redesigned in tones of grey, white, pearl and gold by Paris-based interior designer Aline Asmar d’Amman, and the new look is contemporary but very chic, including chairs which reprise the same arch as the ones found between the four feet of the Eiffel Tower. Anton has designed three new prix-fixe menus for the restaurant, and highlights of the 230 euro menu on a recent visit included a sublime crème Dubarry, a silky cauliflower cream served with a flan of baby leeks, and chicken poached in foie gras bouillon with wild mushrooms and a sauce Albufera (duck foie gras, Cognac, white Port, Madeira, chicken bouillon and cream). – A.L.

A Culinary Eclipse Nestled between art galleries on the Left Bank, in the very chic 7th arrondissement, is where you will find the recently opened Eclipses, a delightful table for a romantic dinner or a business lunch. Chef Cyril Choisne has created a delectable menu of contemporary French cuisine that will surprise and delight. Dishes include foie gras with truffles served with a confit of beetroot, pigeon served on a bed of baby carrots and turnip, and braised lobster served with fregola sarda pasta. Everything here is made in-house, including the sinfully good selection of breads, traditional baguette, brioche roll and poppyseed rolls are all made onsite and marry very well with the lightly salted butter. Vegetarians and vegans, however, will not have an easy time choosing, the menu includes only one vegetarian starter, a salad of finely chopped pink radish and celery topped off with an interesting cloud of foamy lettuce. Mains in the evening do not include any vegetarian-suitable dishes, although the chef “borrows” from the lunch menu a carrot and mushroom risotto, that is quite delicious and filling. - S.I.

An Institutional Brasserie Sébillon, a charming traditional brasserie just on the western edge of Paris near the Porte Maillot, is exactly the kind of restaurant that assures the French capital’s reputation for culinary excellence. Sébillon opened in 1914 and has been delighting a stylish crowd of regulars with its exquisitely fresh shellfish, including oysters from such esteemed French producers as Gillardeau and Joel Dupuch, and signature roast lamb served a volonté (all you can eat) with white beans ever since. Oysters and lamb are both offered as part of a very good value 45-euro prix-fixe menu, too, with alternate choices being a starter of foie gras and a main of cod with crushed potatoes and cabbage. The main menu here caters to all tastes and appetites, too. Start with a salad of haricots verts, artichokes, tomatoes and Parmesan or some lobster-stuffed ravioli, for example, and then tuck into a sole meunière or veal sweetbreads sautéed with capers before concluding with crêpes Suzette flambéed in Grand Marnier or a giant chocolate or coffee éclair. Service here is notably charming, and along with a fine wine list, they also serve some very pleasant wines by the glass and carafe. Open daily and serving dinner until midnight, Sebillon is one of the most reliable addresses for a really good meal in Paris. - A.L.

Shabour © the social food

Contemporary Israeli Cuisine After the huge success of their restaurant Balagan, the quartet that launched it, Assaf Granit, Uri Navon, Dan Yosha and Tomer Lanzman, have opened Shabour, a new counter-seating-only address in Paris’s Sentier quarter, and it has immediately become one of the most popular new restaurants in the French capital. Take a seat at the pink marble counter here, and you’ll quickly see why. The contemporary Israeli cooking they serve is fresh, witty and delicious, and the dining room offers some of the best people-watching in the city right now. The menu evolves regularly but runs to dishes like eggs marinated in tea slicked with tahini and garnished with salmon eggs, gravlax with horseradish cream, red mullet with braised fennel and wagyu beef with freekeh, aubergine caramel and girolles mushrooms. Finish up with a malabi, which is sort of a creamy panna cotta with figs and fresh raspberries, and let the excellent sommelier guide you through the really interesting wine list here. - A.L.

An Evening of Irish Dancing Get into the spirit of Irish dance with the Danceperados of Ireland dance troupe. Dancing their way into the French capital and stepping onto the stage at the Casino de Paris on the 6th of November, the company’s Whiskey You are the Devil show is an energetic celebration of Irish music, song and of course dance. Choreographed by Michael Donnellan, former lead dancer with Riverdance and Lord of the Dance, the show sees the 12 dancers take the audience on a dance voyage through the history of Irish whiskey, via illegal pubs in Ireland to the USA’s adoption of the “liquid gold”. You can get your tickets at Fnac. - S.I.

A Night at the Opera Politics, romance and family conflicts are the cornerstone of Giuseppe Verdi’s Don Carlo. Playing through to the 23rd of the month at Opéra Bastille, the five-act opera dramatically tells the story of Don Carlo, the son of the King of Spain. Beginning with his chance meeting with Elizabeth, the opera is heartbreaking in telling their story and how war and politics ultimately keep them apart. The opera is performed in Italian with French and English surtitles. You can book your tickets online (www.operadeparis.fr), directly at the opera house or by calling 08 92 89 90 90. - S.I.

ADVERTORIAL

“Learning to be French through Comedy” 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

B

orn in Bordeaux, Olivier moved to Paris to study hotel management and after graduating he moved to the United 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 hardhitting 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 a 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. The ultimate Parisian theatre experience created by Olivier Giraud! Enjoyed by more than 800 000 spectators, this show is much more than a stand-up comedy! It’s a hilarious, incisive and visual observation of the Parisian behaviour! Performed 100% in English all year round in one of the most beautiful Italian Renaissance style theatres (600 seats) located in the lively heart of Paris... Ohlala! Non-stop laughter from a real Parisian guaranteed to leave you wanting more. This is THE PERFECT GUIDE to enjoy Paris and the Parisians!

ROMAIN BOISSELEAU

Paradis Latin

L’Assaggio

Paris is known around the world as the City of Light. What would you recommend visitors do in the evenings to really take in its beauty? I would recommend a walk through the streets of Montmartre while waiting for the sun to set. Sit on the stairs of the Sacré-Coeur and let the magic of Paris appear when the entire city is lit up. Then enjoy a good diner at Café de l’Homme facing the Eiffel Tower, glittering every hour as if in a dream. Finish the evening with a private old 2CV car ride with a glass of champagne to discover more of what Paris has to offer at night.

S

As a culinary capital what are three of your favourite restaurants that you would recommend our readers to try? For an authentic French food restaurant I would recommend trying Chez Monsieur. For me, this place offers the best veal stew in Paris and some other tasty dishes. To smooth away the fatigue of a long Parisian day, I would suggest enjoying fabulous Italian cuisine and the best tiramisu in Paris at L’Assaggio, the restaurant of the Hotel Castille. Finally, one of my favourite restaurants in the capital is the 2 Michelin-starred restaurant Kei by Japanese chef Kei Kobayashi. Each bite is a subtle explosion, a delicate balance, and a perfect mix. What are the top three monuments not to be missed while in Paris? The Montparnasse Tower lets you enjoy Paris from all directions and see its monuments from the top at 210 metres. You can take the most beautiful photos of your stay there. The Musée d’Orsay is one of my favourites in Paris. In the past this place was a train station

82 W HE R E PA R I S I N O V E M B E R 2019

Violetta and Alfredo

and is now a not to be missed cultural spot full of Impressionist artworks. Lastly I would suggest discovering the Saint-Eustache, a church situated in the 1st arrondissement. Its architecture is impressive and it is full of history. If our readers wanted to spend their day shopping, would you recommend they do so on the Left Bank or the Right Bank? Each side of the River Seine offers what you need for shopping. My preference would be on the Right Bank, which has a large selection of streets dedicated to shopping (Champs-Elysées, Avenue Montaigne, Rue Saint-Honoré), department stores such as Printemps and Galeries Lafayette and small designer boutiques, especially in Le Marais. What would be the most romantic date in the capital of romance? After a good day in Paris, a stop at Violetta and Alfredo for a very gourmet teatime. Then a tailor-made private river cruise on a Venetian boat with a good bottle of champagne. Followed by a romantic dinner at Coupe-Chou Restaurant, of course in front of the fireplace, while your concierge places beautiful red roses all over your room. What would you recommend for families to discover while visiting the French capital? Your favourite three childrenfriendly spots. Disneyland Paris is of course a must do with the children. Escape the city centre for a day full of dreams with Mickey Mouse and his friends. I also suggest to families to discover the Atelier des Lumières, it is a very nice and original way to start introducing children to

art. Finally the Grande Galerie de l’Evolution and the Ménagerie du Jardin des Plantes are interesting places for animal lovers. What are your favourite cocktail bars in the city? I particularly love the atmosphere of the Prescription Cocktail Club in Saint-Germaindes-Prés. You can go back to the 1930s and enjoy an original creation. Moonshiner is one of my favourite hidden bars at the back of a tiny pizzeria next to Bastille. Also try the exquisite cocktails of Danico, Daroco restaurant’s bar, in the old Jean Paul Gaultier workshop. Brunch and high tea are Sunday favourites, where would you suggest to our readers to enjoy the best treats? La Gare by Gastón Acurio, the famous Peruvian chef, is an outstanding place for Sunday brunch to taste world cuisine that is an invitation to travel. In a simpler way, the Café Pouchkine invites you to enjoy its delicious Russian pastries and hot beverages. Otherwise fulfil all your expectations with brunch at the Peninsula Hotel Paris. Its incredible buffet, the luxurious decoration and the live music are the perfect recipe for an unforgettable moment.
