The 15 Hottest New Restaurants in Paris
"Chef Pierre Gagnaire’s new Italian trattoria in the tres chic Rue du Bac has become an instant hit with local antique dealers, publishers, and boutique owners, among others. Gagnaire opened his first Italian spot in the ski resort of Courchevel, and then, knowing how mad Parisians are for this cuisine, he decided to open a second address in the capital in the space formerly occupied by his excellent seafood restaurant, Gaya, which has moved to the nearby rue Saint Simon. The menu debuts with classic antipasti like charcuterie and vitello tonnato, and then veers from tradition with dishes like raw cuttlefish with Barolo vinegar and crispy rice, fresh spaghetti with shellfish and truffles, gorgonzola and radicchio risotto, and veal cutlet Milanese with baby artichokes and watercress." - Alexander Lobrano
