Ensconced within the Hotel Plaza Athénée, it is impossible to resist the charm of the lovely 1930s decor inspired by the liner SS Normandie. A unique atmosphere in which to sample cuisine with a pronounced sense of tradition, ranging from the "granny's cooking" dear to Jean Imbert (sea bream gratin, stuffed tomato and pilaf rice) to the classics that have sealed the reputation of this famous Art Deco spot.
