APICIUS
Since you love
Apicius on avenue de Villiers, you'll adore
Jean-Pierre Vigato at his
new address on rue d'Artois. The
sumptuous staff goes well with the high level of
gastronomy produced
by this great Chef. Since December, 2004,
APICIUS has been
in the very chic Saint Philippe du Roule
area at an opening near an XVIIIth century
style private hotel
embellished by a park. There one finds such great recipes as the
foie gras de canard poêlé
with mild vinegar, the flesh of bay prawns au couteau semi-
baked in
olive oil, spit roasted rack of lamb des Pyrénées, and the croquant
à la
réglisse or the millefeuille au café with coffee flavored ice
cream. The immense
choice of wines, and the selection of cigars,
gratifies their admirers.
Menu from 120 €; àla carte from 80 to 150 €. Open every day except
Saturday and
Sunday.

LUCAS CARTON
Palace
revolution. Chef Alain Senderens, owner of the prestigious and
luxurious
restaurant LUCAS CARTON,
just decided to abandon his 3 Michelin Guide stars in
order to
launch a gastronomie more in phase with the new customs of the times
and
very much cheaper - the average price of a meal just dropped
from 300 to 100 €. The
magnificent work on the matching of the dishes and the wines
continues and new
products will appear on the à
la carte menu. The new decoration is the magic of
designer Noé
Duchaufour Lawrence and architect Axel Schoenert.
Lunch menu to 76 €;
à
la carte from 160 to 250 €.
Open every day except Saturday
noon, Sunday and Monday noon. Closed

TOKYO EAT
Lots of good
things are happening at the "Site de Création
Contemporaine" of the
Tokyo Palace, commencing with the restaurant

modernity, with a matching
furniture design and colored lights like the suns, the
TOKYO EAT Chef, Thierry Bassard,
settles upon us zucchini marinées
aux pétales
d'ail and mozzarella made from buffalo milk, creamy risotto aux légumes,
daurade à
la plancha and his crumbly desserts aux fruits served in
glasses. For dinner, the list
of dishes is completed by Tokyo Hits
to accompany the evening's musical selections.

LA
CUISINE
On the left
bank, two steps from the Seine, Christine Duboscq and Jean-Vincent
Selles have set up their restaurant LA
CUISINE in a soothing and polished
atmosphere. There, the
young Chef Sébastien
Blettery prepares gastronomy that
flirts with the stars; I recommend
the foie gras en terrine au Muscat with a purée of figs
and plums,
braised lamb's knuckle aux poivrons doux on simmered haricot beans
and for dessert, soup made with ice cream, candies and passion
fruit. The beautiful
wine list is signed Éric Baumard. It's the
ideal address to find the pleasure of a
beautiful, elegant and calm
table.

TERRASSE MIRABEAU
Parisians favor
the beautiful terraces, but the ability to match the outdoors with
quality
dishes isn't found often; its the success of Chef Pierre Négrevergne
- former second
to Michel Rostang - who's responsible for the tasty
cuisine at the TERRASSE
MIRABEAU in
elegant surroundings open to the outside. Among the most
appreciated dishes is the crusty prawn tails from Brittany, the faux
filet d'Aubrac with
dauphinois potatoes, the fricassee of organic
poultry aux citron confites or banana
créme
brûlée
à
la vanille Bourbon that creates happiness among the regular
clientele.

a small country-side house, in a real garden, among the most
agreeable

Rousseau, a young chef who arrived from
