Haute Couture Spots

Fashion Week continues and Paris is now the epicenter. Runaways, models, journalists are all over the city. Where to hang when you are off duty? Here are my favorite couture spots to have a drinks and sometimes eat:

Caffe Armani

My absolute favorite to chill, have and brunch on sundays with friends. Located in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, in the Emporio Armani store, this restaurant proposes typical italian gastronomy. Cocktails are also awesome, perfect to have a drink before partying. 

Bar 8

One of the best place in Paris to have a drink, especially cocktails. The Bar 8 is the Mandarin Oriental's bar. Whenever I am in the area of Saint-Honoré street, by day or by night, I make a stop there to enjoy some exquisite snacks and drinks. 

La Passerelle

Bali in Paris? Yes! La Passerelle may have opened recently, it is already a Parisian reference. Located on a boat in Boulogne-Billancourt (South West of Paris), it has a bar and a restaurant. The bar proposes a nice range of cocktails, composed of classics revisited by the barmen. 

Le Bar

Located in the Park-Hyatt Vendôme, Le Bar is the place to go to have a drink made-to-measure, in a divine Art Deco decor. You just have to tell the barman your tastes. 

Café de Flore

The most mythic brasserie in Paris! Located in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, it is the most Parisian terrace to enjoy a coffee or some hot drinks and meet with friends in the daytime, as typical French people. 

Monsieur Bleu

Situated in the Palais de Tokyo, Monsieur Bleu opened two years ago. It proposes delicious asiatic-inspired meals. It has a lovely terrace that allow you to have lunch and dinner by the Seine. In the inside, you will discover an Art Deco-styled place.
