Alain Ducasse au Plaza Athénée
Hôtel Plaza Athénée, 25 av Montaigne, 8th
Its sheer glamour would be enough to recommend this restaurant, Alain Ducasse’s loftiest Paris undertaking. The dining room has a new clementine-and-white colour scheme; the ceiling drips with 10,000 crystals. An amuse-bouche of a langoustine in lemon cream with a dod of Iranian caviar starts a meal beautifully; try Breton lobster in apple, quince and spiced wine, and end with the rum baba à Monte-Carlo, with the finest rums for dousing.
