Galanga

Some restaurants make themselves known. And then there is Galanga, discovered by walking through the intimate bar of the Monsieur George hotel.

On Rue Washington, just off the Champs-Élysées, this small hotel restaurant with an Art Deco spirit cultivates intimacy: velvet banquettes, green marble tables and low lighting. The Michelin Guide included it in its selection of the most romantic restaurants in Paris.

A creative take on the Mediterranean

Chef Florian Gravelle serves inspired modern cooking with a Mediterranean accent: vegetables take centre stage, spices are used with restraint, sauces are concentrated and cooking is precise. Scallops with broccoletti, squab with Savoy cabbage and quince: sunshine on the plate, served with a gentle touch.

A discreet address in an elegant neighbourhood

A handful of tables, a planted terrace and the unobtrusive attention of a charming hotel: Galanga is the sort of address you keep to yourself. Begin with a cocktail at the bar and finish nestled in velvet.

Who is it for?

• A discreet dinner near the Champs-Élysées
• Those who love intimate Art Deco settings
• A date in two acts: cocktails, then dinner

Why Galanga leaves an impression

Because romance here is about closeness: few tables, little noise and plenty of attention.

Galanga, Monsieur George's well-kept secret.
