Dining out in Paris should be fun, relaxing andnever, never stressful. Whether a 3-star restaurant or a neighborhood bistro there should always be a warm welcome and an excellent rapport qualité-prix-a positive relationship between price and quality. Bon appétit!

Le Dome du Marais
On the site of a giant “pawnshop” authorized by Louis XVI in 1777 a magnificent dining room emerged under the glass dome in what had been the auction room. This was not the traditional pawnshop with the three hanging balls that we know from film noir. Living on reputation, somewhat like a fallen aristocrat, Dome has been recently taken over by the young restaurateur Cyril Munier who installed the Norman chef Christian LeClere and the results are splendide.
