Nice place to feel
like a Parisian, eating a great dinner of old favorites
but, as the French Chefs like to say ‘’revisité’’ meaning
revisited - modernized and lighter
The decor of the restaurant has been redone
recently, and it is gorgeous. For those who like
wine and knows it, the wine list here is impressive,
a good balance of old and new bottles at all prices.

This restaurant
is very trendy in the young and beautiful community.
They Serve Bistro style food, like Onion soup, Cold
cut, Crème brulee, but they also
have more Gourmet type dishes.
They focus more and more on wine tasting, having
almost every night a wine maker who talk about his
passion for wine, you can buy some bottles if you
like. In the summer time, from the first floor you
can admire a nice Feng-shui garden. It is close to
the Grand Boulevards, Opera, and movie theaters….

Market will make you happy if you like New York style
restaurants and NY style Food.
Jean George (famous Chef in NY) is the chef and one
of the owner, partner with Luc Besson, also famous
French movie maker (5th element). It is also a GOOD
restaurant. The food is a fusion of French with an
Asian touch. The quality of ingredients is, with
no doubt, what make the food so delicious here. Service
is excellent, decor is modern and the bar
serves great cocktails.

Le ‘’ DEPUR’’ is
a very strange name for a restaurant, but in a way,
it is a strange place too.
The food is simple and good, you have to choose from
a list on a black board on the wall. The ambiance
is great, and it is different every evening, sometimes
it is a DJ who makes people dance, some time it is
a Fortune teller, or a guitar player. You will really
enjoy watching all those people talking loud and
having fun. You will feel comfortable there as soon
as you have a place to seat, every body is smiling
at you; every body is nice to you. It feels like
you are not in Paris (just Kidding) As I said it
is strange and you have to see it by yourself. Also
don’t miss
the binders at the entrance, some are for boys some
are for girls, they are catalogues of people who
want to meet people. Like a local Internet meeting
site. Very funny.
