Virtus - Michelin 1-Star Restaurant PARIS
Perched in a dynamic neighbourhood near the bustling marché d'Aligre, lies an artistic gem - Virtus. This modern French cuisine restaurant has achieved a well-earned reputation, garnering a Michelin star and two toques from Gault & Millau. It's an ideal location for both a light lunch or an intimate dinner, with Google and Tripadvisor ratings echoing the high praise with an impressive 4.8 and 4.5 respectively.
The interior is a melange of vintage with Art Deco accents, creating a unique atmosphere that's both comfortable and stylish. Each table is meticulously set, ensuring a harmonious ambience that allows patrons to soak in the atmosphere while they anticipate the gastronomical journey that awaits them.
At the helm of this culinary voyage is none other than the renowned chef, Frédéric Lorimier. Having honed his skills under the tutelage of Arnaud Donckele at Cheval Blanc Saint-Tropez, Chef Lorimier demonstrates impeccable craftsmanship in each dish, marrying technique with creativity.
The heart of Virtus is undoubtedly its menu, showcasing a commitment to seasonal ingredients that are treated with respect and finesse. Upon booking, diners can look forward to mains like the 'supreme de pintade de la Cour d'Armoise' - a testament to the mastery of roasting. The starters are equally enticing with dishes like red tuna accompanied by a horseradish vinaigrette, a combination designed to intrigue the palate. And of course, a meal is not complete without a dessert or a course of langoustines, paired with wines carefully selected by their skilled sommelier. Truly, Virtus offers a culinary experience to remember.
