There are restaurants with a view.
Then there is L'Oiseau Blanc, where the view is part of the menu.
Perched on the 6th floor of the grand hotel The Peninsula Paris, a short walk from the Arc de Triomphe, L'Oiseau Blanc is one of the capital's most spectacular rooftops: the Eiffel Tower ahead, the rooftops of Paris all around, and a glass roof that opens in fine weather, turning dinner into a moment suspended in the sky.
Behind the view is cooking at the highest level: two Michelin stars, under chef David Bizet. Creative, precise French gastronomy, with every plate perfectly judged: cooking, jus, sauces and presentation.
The finale lives up to everything that precedes it: desserts by pastry chef Anne Coruble, praised by the Michelin Guide itself, bring the meal to a close like a discreet firework display.
L'Oiseau Blanc was the name of the aircraft flown by Nungesser and Coli, the two French aviators who set off in 1927 to attempt the first crossing of the North Atlantic. The restaurant pays tribute to them, right down to its décor, with this wonderfully audacious, poetic idea: dining above Paris, as though in flight.
Everything here speaks of a grand hotel: impeccable service, evening light across the rooftops, a summer terrace among the most beautiful in Paris. This is not a “trendy” address, but an exceptional one: the restaurant you book for the truly great occasions.
Because it brings together some of the rarest things Paris offers: truly great cooking, two stars to its name, and a panorama that even the capital's most beautiful dining rooms cannot provide. You go up for the view and remember it for the food.
L'Oiseau Blanc, dinner taken to new heights, literally and figuratively.
