"This 18th-century building that used to be the mint still holds treasure: It now houses the three-Michelin-starred Guy Savoy. Dark-colored walls set off the contemporary art, and large windows frame views of the Seine, setting the stage for an evening of culinary theater in whichacast of waiters, assistants, and sommeliers attend to thrilling your taste buds. Monsieur Savoy is a generous man whose personality is revealed in his playful and artful dishes,like foie gras served as lollipops, sea bass with a flavorful crunch, and a deceptively simple brioche laced with truffles. The chef’s largessecontinues with one table set aside for a100-euro (about $118) lunch (sign up on the website for a chance to sit there), making it possible for mere mortals topartake in his heavenly meals."
