There are restaurants that tell the story of Paris. And then there is Lasserre, where Paris puts on a show, with the roof wide open to the sky.
On Avenue Franklin-D.-Roosevelt, the restaurant founded in 1942 by René Lasserre is a legend: more than twenty years with three Michelin stars, and that unique mechanical roof that opens above the tables to let in the stars, the real ones.
An upstairs dining room, silverware and the choreography of the maîtres d'hôtel: dinner here is a ceremony, with elegant dress required (jackets recommended for gentlemen). Chef Jean-Louis Nomicos continues the great French culinary tradition, led by macaroni stuffed with black truffles and foie gras, with a Michelin star as its seal of approval.
In fine weather, the ceiling retracts during the evening: the sky enters the room, and the table becomes one of the most romantic settings in Europe. It is the Lasserre effect, inimitable for more than 80 years.
Because no other dining room in the world opens onto the Paris sky in quite this way, and the cooking lives up to the gesture.
Lasserre, dinner under the stars, quite literally.
