Prix-Fixe Restaurants in Paris - The New York Times > Travel > S. Le Chateaubriand | Paris 11th | Inaki Aizpitarte | Restaurant Re. La Gazzetta. L' Agrume. Jadis. I’m not much for standard restaurant “reviews”. I think dining is a personal experience and while one person might find a dish excellent, it might not be to another person’s liking. Some folks like loud, hip places, and I’m more inclined to hit the classics. Another thing is that when I go out, I don’t always tote my camera or want to have to remember and recount every single thing I ate, or recall every vintage I sipped during the evening. What I like to do is to point you in the direction of places that I think you might like here in Paris.
So I don’t have any photos of the dinner I had at Jadis*. Because I’m not a fan of the multiple wandering fork-style of dining, I had to watch in envy as my dining companions split a whole roasted lamb shoulder that was braised, then crisped, which came to the table on a mountain of perfect white beans in a polished copper roasting pan. Desserts were lovely. Jadis 208, rue de la Croix-Nivert (15th) Tél: 01 45 57 73 20 (Map) Related Links My Paris. Frenchie. Three of the hottest, most sought-after tables in Paris are lorded over by les américains. A few are part of the “underground” dining scene, which seems to be a global phenomenon, another is a one-man show (for now), and the forth is a cozy little resto located in a back alley where a French chef, who trained mostly in America, is combining the best of both cultures. Hidden Kitchen When two young cooks moved to Paris from Seattle, they began hosting dinner parties in their apartment, which was stark and nowhere near as sumptuous as their current digs.
I can’t tell you where it is, but once you reserve, you’ll be in the know soon enough. Hidden Kitchen is now in a more luxe location and the open kitchen overlooks the dining table where a multi-course dinner is served, and ten courses isn’t unusual. The chefs head to the market beforehand to scope out what’s fresh, so you won’t know what’s on the all-inclusive menu until you arrive. Chien Lunatique Spring Spring 6, rue Bailleul (1st) Frenchie.
