"Just a stone's throw from the Seine overlooking Notre Dame, you are definitely in Paris – yet also in Japan! Sola is full of contrasts from the pared-back pale wooden furniture to the coffered ceiling and massive solid wood doors, while the vaulted cellar sports a Japanese-inspired dining platform (be sure to remove your shoes). Japanese chef Kosuke Nabeta serves a delicious fusion of the knife-edge precision we associate with his native cuisine paired with a cornucopia of produce from the French countryside. Nabeta introduces us to traditional culinary techniques that he wields exquisitely (smoking, drying, marinating, fermenting, alternative cooking methods etc) based on ingredients like soya, sake, ponzu and mizuna. Balanced, polished, personal cuisine." - Michelin Inspector
