Lai’Tcha

By Flavors and Senses | Published: July 15, 2020

For those passionate about the pleasures of the table, Adeline Grattard doesn’t need presentations, mostly for her restaurant Yam’Tcha and her presence at the famous Netflix show “Chef’s Table”. Briefly speaking, she studied at the famous Parisian school Ferrandi, and developed her technique alongside Pascal Barbot at L’Astrance, and there met her husband Chi Wah Chan, a specialist in tea. Together they embarked […]

La Table D’Eugène

By Flavors and Senses | Published: May 5, 2020

Montmartre is a mandatory neighbourhood to visit when in Paris! Besides the hills, the Sacre-Coeur Basilica, the unique view over the rooftops of Paris, the overflow of artists at Place du Tetre, the historical constructions and of course, the bohemian vibe from the 20s or 30s that is still possible to feel in its narrow and […]

Maison Favart

By Flavors and Senses | Published: April 20, 2020

At Rue de Marivaux, in the historic square next to Opéra Comique and in the heart of the 2nd district of Paris, is located the elegant Boutique Hotel Maison Favart. Not being my favorite neighborhood in the eternal City of Light, it is for sure an area that has bohemian energy. It is the neighborhood of the Grands […]

Au Passage

By Flavors and Senses | Published: November 29, 2019

The Au Passage was born with the Boom of neo-bistros and Wine bars that invaded Paris from 2010 onwards. It soon gained the spotlight and in 2012 it was one of the favorites of the new Parisian cuisine, and even awarded as “Fooding d’Amour 2012”! Destiny dictated that a space that so much reflects a new way […]

Le Roch Hotel & Spa

By Flavors and Senses | Published: November 21, 2019

Luxury is getting much more intimate than palatial! We continuously look for places that make us feel unique and actually important, and less of the bustle of the big hotels. That’s why we chose Le Roch on our last trip to the city of light! Paris is, and will always be, a synonym of luxury, elegance and […]

Kei

By Flavors and Senses | Published: February 15, 2018

Kei Kobayashi is one of the most famous names in the city of light, with a passion for French cuisine hard to match. A passion that started very early in his life, still in Nagano (his hometown) when enchanted by Alain Chapel’s work in a tv show. And there started his own path in cuisine, first in […]

Champeaux

By Flavors and Senses | Published: February 2, 2018

I remember visiting Paris as a young man, and trying to avoid the metro station Rer de Chatelet-Les Halles as much as I could, for the bustle of the thousands of people crossing or the suspicious environment of the Les Halles area. Gone were the times that area was the “womb” of the city, being home of […]

Akrame

By Flavors and Senses | Published: January 6, 2018

Akrame Benallal may not be under the World’s 50 Best spotlight and other publications, like others whose the PR work is higher than the chefs work or cuisines. But since he opened his namesake restaurant, acknowledgment has not been missing. From Michelin stars to opening other businesses and restaurants, perseverance is this young chef’s middle name, even when […]

Le Narcisse Blanc

By Flavors and Senses | Published: December 11, 2017

The subtlety of a ballerina’s movement, the mysterious expression of her look, and the eternal beauty of a muse, are the inspiration that led Laurent and Laurence to create the unique Le Narcisse Blanc. Cléo de Mérode was a Belle Époque ballerina (let’s say it was the first It Girl there’s memory of!), her beauty inspired some of the most emblematic artists […]
