The Restaurant at Le Meurice

"And in 2008 that other mad genius, Philippe Starck, overhauled the hotel's public areas, bringing an exquisite contemporary touch of the surreal to the lobby and downstairs bar and restaurant"

"There's also a great bar with big leather tub chairs and stunning Belle Époque murals, and the culinary genius of young chef Yannick Alléno makes a meal at Le Meurice, the hotel's lavish restaurant, a bona fide Gallic thrill"

"A more contemporary fare, also designed by Ducasse, is served at the lobby restaurant Le Dalí"

"The more formal Restaurant Le Meurice serves creative French fare in an elegant space"

"At the gilded Restaurant Le Meurice, dishes like the tender roasted lamb from Lozère exceed our highest expectations"
