PRIVILEGED PARIS BY saNDra isKaNDEr

Hidden boutiques, ViP spas and exquisite restaurants are only some of the things that make the French capital a glorious getaway for many. This month we take you on a privileged tour and share with you our favourite addresses that make-up some of Paris’s well-kept secrets.

ue saint-Honoré is famous for its high-end boutiques, with all the famous brands vying for a space on the most popular shopping street in the fashion capital. and while the boutiques that are already proudly installed on the street make for great shopping, it is the hidden boutiques on that street that make shopping in Paris even more special. One of these well-kept secrets is found just across the road from Colette, hidden in a quaint courtyard. Mad Lords, an accessories haven, is a multi-brand boutique offering limited edition leather goods and jewellery as well as vintage pieces. showcased in an apartmentlike boutique, the jewellery and accessories are predominantly rock-inspired but you could also find dainty pieces if you are looking for less statement-making items as well as fun accessories such as Linda Farrow sunglasses.

in another hidden courtyard on rue saintHonoré is the Caroline di Marchi boutique. The handbag designer’s hidden space is a charming address in the fashion capital that unfortunately if you do not know exists you could easily walk past without ever discovering the sublime bags that are found within. Her signature bag is the Cubo, and is available in a myriad of colours, from bright orange to subdued beige, and is an ideal day bag, while her woven leather clutches with seashell detailing are a sexy accessory to make your outfit standout in a crowd. On the other side of the city, overlooking the Panthéon is the relatively new spa Or’Normes, which opened last year in one of the oldest parts of Paris. if you’re looking for a getaway within a getaway this space is ideal, as it will transport you to Marrakech as you step into a riad-inspired decor. The signature treatment here is the initiation au rituel

Oriental, which includes a traditional Moroccan hammam body scrub. an olive paste is applied to your body before entering the hammam where the humidity opens your pores and lets the miracle paste penetrate your skin. after twenty minutes, the paste is scrubbed off your body using an exfoliating glove leaving your skin as smooth as silk. a great treatment to get you bikini-ready. Open seven days a week with the possibility of privatising the whole

space for yourself, this address makes for quite the VIP treatment. The iconic Guerlain boutique on the most beautiful avenue in the world is a glorious destination for admirers of everything opulent. The boutique boasts the French house’s complete collection of perfumes and beauty products as well as the magnificent salon where bespoke fragrances are created. This address of privilege has become even more luxurious with the opening of Le 68, a restaurant that is so delicately hidden on the first floor of the boutique that you may never know of its existence if you were to just walk in front of the boutique. The restaurant’s menu, created by Michelin-starred chef extraordinaire Guy Martin, features dishes that combine the talents of Martin’s cooking and the notes used by Guerlain’s nose Thierry Vasseur in the house’s perfumes. Your sense of sight, smell and taste will be seduced by the marriage of foie gras and vanilla in puff pastry and Peking duck with honey, Sichuan pepper, orange and cardamom, while the dessert menu transforms two of

At the exclusive Ecole Van Cleef & Arpels you can learn the secrets of jewellery and watch making, the history and inspirations of the house and discover the world of precious stones. The school offers three courses, History of Art, The Universe of Gemstones and Savoir-Faire, and you can sign up for classes directly online, choosing as many classes as you want to take. The classes are conducted in either English or French and delve you into the art of jewellery making.

THE FABULOUS HOUSE OF

LANVIN ALBER ELBAZ PHOTO © MARIO SORRENTI/ART PARTNER; LOOKBOOK PHOTOS © LANVIN

BY SANDRA ISKANDER

The French couture house Lanvin celebrates 125 years of fabulous fashion. Marking this huge milestone is the new collection that reflects the essence of the house that has made people from all over the world dream of wearing Lanvin. It all started in 1889 when Jeanne Lanvin set up shop as a milliner on the corner of rue Boissy d’Anglas and rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, where the house’s flagship boutique still stands today. Eight years later Jeanne gave birth to her daughter, Marguerite Marie Blanche, who fast became her mother’s muse. Jeanne was greatly inspired by her daughter that she decided to design clothes for her and slowly created a high fashion-filled wardrobe for the young fashionista and was inspired to launch a children’s wear collection. The new collection quickly became a hit with the mothers of the other girls at Marguerite’s school asking Jeanne to make the same outfits for them. With the popularity of the line growing, Jeanne decided to open a Children’s Suits department in 1908 and a year later inaugurated the Young Ladies and Women’s departments, expanding the collection and evolving each line’s style as Marguerite grew up. Forever her mother’s muse, Marguerite continued to inspire the style of the collections, with the house growing as she did. Today, Lanvin continues to be at the forefront of fashion, creating looks and styles that fashion-lovers around the world aspire to attain. With the talented Alber Elbaz at the helm, he has been Lanvin’s Artistic Director for over a decade, the collections still reflect the Lanvin look that Marguerite inspired and Jeanne created. This season the collections, for both ladies and gentlemen, feature streamlined cuts with metallic accents and leather detailing. The women’s collection features both sensual and androgynous pieces, with sexy bustier dresses for the femme fatale and drop waist dresses for a step back into the chic art deco 20s. Meanwhile the men’s collection is sophisticated and playful with suits, daring shorts and bright trench coats. And not forgetting the collection that started it all, the children’s collection features princess dresses with chiffon detailing, pleats and ruffles as well as fun print t-shirts and a baroque-style cap-sleeved jacket that will complete any little girl’s very fashionable wardrobe making Jeanne and Marguerite Lanvin very proud. The house’s spring/summer collection is now in all Lanvin boutiques including the flagship boutique at 22 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré (8th).

The watch brings together Hublot’s unique invisible visibility design concept and the UNiCO, a chronograph movement that was completely designed, developed and produced in the workshops of the Hublot manufacture. its powerful 45.5mm case gives it a stylish mechanical look, while for the first time since the

creation of the Big Bang in 2005 the push buttons are round. This watch isn’t merely handsome to look at it is also fun. its movement is revealed through an intriguing skeleton dial featuring the famous arabic numerals and indexes, which have been re-designed to give them more volume and on the all Black version they have been hollowed out and filled with black superLuminova, the photo-luminescent pigments that illuminate markings on a watch. – P.V. 10 place Vendôme (1st), 01 42 86 67 86

The recently opened Lifestyle Spa Montecino Aveda offers friendly service in a spacious salon where only natural Aveda products are used. The “lifestyle” salon is where you can relax with a massage, get a mani/pedi or come in for a hair makeover. If you are looking to revamp your hair, you are in good hands with Megan, the salon’s colourist, who will give you the best advice on what colour you should go for and which will best suit your skin tone. Very professional, she will not experiment with your hair, unless of course that’s what you are looking for. While your colour is setting, Chloé, the salon’s beautician, will treat you to a hand massage. Using Aveda’s hand cream for stressed skin, your skin is gently exfoliated and is left feeling blissfully soft. And when it’s time to rinse off the colour, you are treated to a tingling scalp massage, which you never want to end. And if you are looking to trim your hair or radically change the cut, it’s good to know that Emmanuel Montecino, the talented hairdresser, isn’t scissor-happy, but rather listens to just how much you’re happy to cut off. 7 rue du Louvre (1st), 01 40 26 18 07 Dolce & Gabbana are celebrating the success of The One and The One for Men by releasing the popular scents in sleek limited edition bottles for both him and her in luxurious platinum and gold. With a heart note of Madonna Lily and a base note of rich vanilla, the smooth floral scent for her is enveloped in an all gold bottle while The One for Men’s oriental spice perfume with notes of cardamom, ginger and cedar wood is bottled in an equally exclusive platinum bottle. This is a beautifully for him and her gift set sure to add luxury to any vanity table. Available at Galeries Lafayette

A SUMMER BOOST Get a head start on your summer glow with Clarins’s RadiancePlus Golden Glow Booster. The self-tanning liquid for your face mixes easily with your regular day or night cream to give you a colour boost without exposing your skin to the harsh sun. Simply mix in three drops of the booster to your cream and apply to your face, and because it is a made-to-measure self-tanner you can adjust the intensity of your tan by reapplying the booster every day until you get the desired sun-kissed hue you want. This is an ingenious product to help you cheat the perfect summer tan before summer even starts. 10 rue de Babylone (7th), 01 45 44 06 19

E X PERIENCING THE A BS TR AC T Through an exhibition entitled Abstract Experiences – Beyond the Real, the Opera Gallery takes the visitor into the world of the abstract and its various manifestations. Allowing for a new look into the radical and decisive turning point undertaken by art at the beginning of the 20th century, the abstract, a visual language of shapes, forms, lines and colours, gives rise to often emotionally moving works. A very special colour-filled show unfolds inside the gallery with works like Damien Hirst’s intriguing Circle Spin Painting, the optical illusions of Victor Vasarely while Pierre Soulages shows us that it is possible to express both black and light at the same time. It is a world that transports us outside of the real world into a seemingly parallel world of another’s vision. – Patricia Valicenti From May 23 through June 14 356 rue Saint-Honoré (1st), 01 42 96 39 00

TO P TAGS A colourful and bountiful world unfolds at the Galerie Matignon with the works of graffiti artist Cyril Phan, alias Kongo. The gallery is presenting a selection of his recent works including paintings on canvas, works on plexiglass and sculptures. The self-taught street artist initially gained notice as a tagger and graffiti artist on the Parisian, European and American urban stages and greatly contributed to defending graffiti as an artistic discipline in its own right. Today, he regularly welcomes artists of the street art movement into his own studio, Narvaland, where artists from around the world create group works. His expressive and colourful style brings to mind the abstract and calligraphy as elaborate shapes and letters come together in highly eye-catching works and his innate fine taste has not gone unnoticed by actors on the luxury goods scene, with the prestigious House of Hermès producing a collection of their celebrated luxury scarves using his paintings. – P.V. Through May 17th 18 ave Matignon (8th), 01 42 66 60 32

Powerful Pictures Over the past 25 years, the American photographer Stanley Greene has recorded scenes in some of the most dangerous places on the planet from Sudan to Kashmir, Afghanistan and Chechnya. His photographic path has been atypical. The former Black Panther studied photography at the San Francisco Art Institute from whence he embarked on a photographic journey into the city, at the time home to an underground punk scene, with the resulting documents revealing frenetic sequences of daily life in the milieu. He moved onto New York, where he was born, then Paris for a career in fashion photography before his famous picture of the Berlin Wall in 1989 was taken, “Kisses to All, Berlin Wall”, after which he began documenting danger zones, the result being a body of powerful, at times ethereal, pictures. He continues today to produce photographic essays and in a show entitled Hidden Scars, the Polka Galerie retraces his exceptional, out of the ordinary career. – P.V. Through May 24th Cour de Venise, 12 rue Saint-Gilles (3rd), 01 76 21 41 30

EVERY OBJECT TELLS A STORY

The Carré Rive Gauche event is taking visitors on a discovery this year with galleries and venues presenting objects with a unique story behind them and sometimes even an episode in history. A host of art fields and mediums are represented including archaeology, primitive arts, ceramics, textiles, curiosities, and furnishings. Discover the Marquise de Pompadour’s personal knife, a silver scale model of the English warship, the HMS Victory, a richly ornamented rare buffet from the Renaissance and a pair of 17th century Venetian caryatids that were once in the collection of Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé. Participating galleries will be hosting special exhibitions and showcasing exceptional objects and works throughout the month with some objects only on display from May 15th to May 18th. The Carré Rive Gauche is held in galleries in the 6th and 7th arrondissements on seven streets which form a square: quai Voltaire, rues des Saints-Pères, Université, Bac, Beaune, Verneuil and Lille. – P.V.

siMpLY SWEDEN

Olwen Forest JEWELLERY of ThE STaRS

a comfortable and humanistic world unfolds in the works of the swedish artist Carl Larsson. The Petit Palais is hosting the first exhibition ever held in France devoted to this figure of swedish art and the arts and Crafts Movement. Entitled “Carl Larsson, the Painter of Popular Pictures of sweden”, the exhibit brings together over 100 works – watercolours, paintings, engravings and furnishings – plunging the visitor into peaceful domestic life and the bucolic, civilised countryside of sweden. His watercolours from the late 19th century album, Our House, are particularly touching, revealing rooms attesting to the sophistication, simplicity and warmth of swedish interiors. slices of swedish life emerge with a young girl, Lisbeth, fishing, an artist painting in a snow-filled village surrounded by sleds, and a group of children enjoying a day on the lake catching crayfish ultimately for lunch as a food-laden table in the painting reveals. – P.V. Ave Winston Churchill (8th), 01 53 43 40 00

INTRIGUING INSECTS

Brahma, 2013 © Pascal Goet

Aesthetic, nearly prophetic become otherwise common insects in the lens of Pascal Goet. His macro-photography pays a special tribute to nature accentuating the shapes of the insects, which no longer resemble insects at all, but rather tribal masks, totems or talismans. Artful, colourful shapes spring forth, fabulous and magical, wildly resembling the primitive and powerful. The photographs reveal the extreme creative power nature has to offer and throw open the doors to a parallel world that is often ignored by human beings, that of insects, the largest group of beings in the animal kingdom. You can come face to face with Mistro, Goliath, Brahma, Catacanthus and their peers in an exhibition of Pascal Goet’s work entitled Mask at the Galerie Bettina. – P.V. 2 rue Bonaparte (6th), 01 46 33 72 98

Just in time for a delightful al fresco meal in one of the prettiest and most peaceful fresh-air settings in Paris, the gallery balcony of the Mini Palais restaurant adjacent to the Grand Palais exhibition hall, chefs Eric Fréchon et Stéphane d’Aboville have launched a tempting new menu at this stylish contemporary brasserie. Start with the oeuf meurettes (poached eggs in red-wine sauce) with snails and parsley juice, a witty riff on a Burgundian classic, and then try the John Dory roasted with soy sauce and bay leaves with eggplant caviar or maybe the delicious gratin of macaroni with ham and Comte cheese. There are many terrific seasonal temptations on this menu, too, including perfectly cooked French asparagus garnished with a lemon sabayon and Avruga caviar as a starter and a beautifully made risotto garnished with tiny baby peas and morel mushrooms or veal sweetbreads roasted with cinnamon and served with a purée of baby peas. Finish up with strawberries garnished with basil and yoghurt sorbet and maybe one of the best millefeuilles in Paris. – Alexander Lobrano 3 ave Winston Churchill (8th), 01 42 56 42 42

KITCHEN GALERIE BIS Long before everyone started talking about fusion cuisine, talented French chef William Ledeuil was translating his fascination with the kitchens of Southeast Asia into stunningly original dishes that offer an intriguing marriage of east and west at his hugely popular SaintGermain-des-Prés restaurant Le Kitchen Galerie. Several years ago, he opened a second address, Le Kitchen Galerie Bis, just up the street, and it has the same similarly dramatic art-gallery-like décor as the original table and a fascinating menu that begins with an assortment of intriguing hors d’oeuvres including croquettes, stuffed pasta, crostini, tempura, carpaccio and soups, which are made from the best seasonal produce and change almost daily according to what’s best in the market. Main courses range from spectacularly original pasta dishes like Sardinian gnocchi with Thai pesto (made with herbs most commonly found in Thai cooking, including lemongrass and Thai basil), Parmesan cheese and Italianstyle mostarda condiment of fruit in mustard syrup to grilled duckling with a Japanese-style plum sauce and roasted pork belly with a peanut teriyaki sauce. Don’t miss the sublime chocolate and tonka bean ganache with miso marmalade and coconut ice-cream for dessert. With friendly young service and an interesting wine list, this is a terrific address for anyone who wants to explore the creative side of contemporary French cooking by a real master of the art. – A.L. 4 rue des Grands-Augustins (6th), 01 44 32 00 32

The idea of this quartet was to reboot a much loved neighbourhood institution with a menu of bistros favourites, including a superb terrine de campagne, sole meunière with baby spinach and a succulent jarret de veau (veal shank) with green olives and homemade gnocchi. Finish up with the riz au lait de l’Impératrice, an exceptionally good version of rice pudding with chopped candied fruit, and note that there’s a great selection of easy drinking wines by the glass. – A.L. 58 rue de la faisanderie (16th), 01 45 04 12 53 w w w.wheretr aveler.c o m 59

FRIES WITH THAT? The humble French fry is a French cuisine staple found on menus in upmarket establishments and casual bistros and is pretty much appreciated and enjoyed by everyone. Tapping into this love of this delicious side order is the recently opened Maison F, a restaurant bar that specialises in French fries. The menu here boasts a variety of fries including the classic frites to a much-loved American favourite, the sweet potato option as well as an original risotto version. The idea of the menu here is you first choose the fries and then your dish, which here is considered your side order, though the “side orders” here include steak and fish for a fancy fish‘n’chip dinner. After dinner head downstairs to the F Bar where you can enjoy cocktails and a fun mix of 90’s music. - S.I. 3 rue Rougemont (9th), 01 42 46 23 16 181x132 WHERE-MAI_14.qxp_Mise en page 1 28/03/2014 15:59 Page1

ADVERTORIAL

How to become Parisian in one hour? 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, the very talented and handsome comedian, 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 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 be 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.

Non-stop laughter from a real Parisian guaranteed to leave you wanting more.

W h e r e pa r i s [ n a v i g at e ] 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?

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 (1.70€/2€ if purchased on a bus) or by 10 (un carnet - 13.70€). This map includes the new tramway line.

“Paris Visite” passes offer unlimited travel on the Métro and buses (1day 10.85€, 2-day 17.65€, 3-day 24.10€, 5-day 34.70€). 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.

[THE VIEW FROM HERE]

My Paris

The charming footbridges of Canal Saint-Martin

Which restaurant have you recently discovered that pleasantly surprised you? David Toutain’s sleek new place in a quiet part of the 7th is definitely the hottest table in town at the moment. His cooking is original, using rare products in often-unexpected ways. There is no menu, all depends on the season and his whims, and bookings are highly sought after, so book well in advance.

Adrian MOORE

Assistant Head Concierge Mandarin Oriental Paris

For our readers who are looking for a traditional Parisian bistro serving authentic French fare, where would you book them a table? Although it used to be one of the most touristy places in town, Alain Ducasse’s new revamp of the creaky old bistro Allard is a resounding success. The old classics remain, but the products have been upgraded and the young lady chef in the kitchen, who trained at the Jules Verne, is turning out delicious, iconic food. 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?

The Titty Twister

Where recently sat with Assistant Head Concierge of the Mandarin Oriental Paris Hotel, Adrian Moore, to pick his brain on where and what our readers should go and see while visiting the French capital Good Paris nightclubs without attitude are few and far between, however, the Titty Twister still has the coolest parties, and if you get a chance to see DJ Pat-Man at the Matignon (confession: he’s my concierge colleague), go for it. Otherwise, favourite bars open late are Mary Celeste, great cocktails by Carlos and astounding bar food by chef Haan, Sherry Butt, a cosy Marais cocktail bar with superb cocktails by owner Amaury and an impressive list of Japanese beers and whiskies, and old school bar Le Forvm, open since the 1930s with a great vibe, vintage Wurlitzer’s and Chesterfield chairs, and technically perfect cocktails. For a couple in love where would you recommend they go for a romantic dinner? If you’re in love, anything goes, but it’s hard to find a more romantic spot than La Truffière, recently rated one Michelin star. The food is traditional French and the candlelit-vaulted dining room is one of the oldest and moodiest in town. They also have one of the bestunknown wine cellars in town.

Which restaurant in Paris may not be the best placed, may not be the most chic décorwise but serves amazing food? Le Baratin located in multicultural Belleville is one of the most honest and authentic bistros in town. Raquel, the Argentinean chef who has presided over this tiny table for two decades always cooks up delicious and reasonably priced seasonal market fare while her partner Philippe, aka Pinouche, pours bottles of some of the best small production natural wines in town. Highly worth the trek.

Sleek dining at David Toutain

MY PERFECT DAY 9 a.m a.m. Filter coffee with beans roasted by the Belleville Brûlerie at Holybelly or an organic bacon sandwich at Frenchie To Go 12 p.m. Lunch by myself at Septime, if I can score a last minute booking. Recently awarded a Michelin star, it is a true picture of what’s happening in Paris’ culinary zeitgeist at the moment. 3 p.m. The Café Craft is a great place to work on personal projects, fuelled by great coffee and tasty cakes. 9 p.m. Lockwood, in the heart of the Paris garment district is a fun place to unwind.

If one of our readers is only in Paris for 24 hours what one thing would you recommend they do? A hard question to answer, but for the adventurous traveller I would suggest my favourite neighbourhood, the Canal SaintMartin. Not only does this quartier border a Napoleonic shipping canal with charming footbridges, it has some of the best spots in town: bread at Du Pain et des Idées, fabulous coffee and breakfast-y comfort food at Holybelly, and, although not so Parisian, Paris’ best Guinness at the Cork and Cavan. Followed by a browsing session at the Artazart design bookshop.
