"The elegant Belle Époque brasserie at the iconic Ritz Paris, a member of the Leading Hotels of the World, is undoubtedly one of the finest places to be wined and dined in the French capital. Red velvet banquettes, white tablecloths, attentive service, and expertly prepared dishes make this a go-to for well-heeled locals and visitors. A meal might start with Gillardeau oysters or poached blue lobster before moving on to classic French mains like sole meunière or roasted Bresse chicken supreme with brown butter and Jerusalem artichoke. Dessert by the Ritz’s head pastry chef François Perret is worth saving room for." - Laura Itzkowitz
