Louis - Michelin 1-Star Restaurant PARIS
Tucked away in a serene street not far from the bustling grand stores, Louis, the culinary jewel of Paris, offers both a quiet lunch getaway and a leisurely dinner. Proudly boasting a Michelin rating of 1 star and a Gault & Millau rating of 3 toques, this place is a gastronomic delight nestled within an enchanting neighbourhood.
Stepping inside, you are immediately enveloped by an intimate and tranquil ambience. The interior design exudes a modern yet elegant charm, and every table is carefully arranged, creating an atmosphere that encourages convivial conversation while retaining a touch of sophistication.
At the helm of Louis' kitchen is the talented Breton chef, Stéphane Pitré. A product of fine culinary establishments such as Senderens, Pitré pays homage to his lineage through his work, crafting menus as distinctive as the namesake of his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, all named 'Louis'.
When it comes to food and drinks, Louis does not disappoint. A journey through their menu reveals a range of delicacies from tartare of Black Angus beef with cassis and oyster tempura to low-temperature cooked monkfish with Thai spices. Each dish, be it a starter, main, or dessert, tells a story of culinary artistry. Pitré's expertise shines through in a 7-course or 9-course tasting menu, with a quick 3-course option available for lunch. The attentiveness of the sommelier and the variety of wines on offer make the experience even more delightful. It is advisable to make a booking ahead to enjoy this gastronomic journey.
