Le Meurice

Paris, France

With its crystal chandeliers and acres of marble, it’s easy to imagine Marie Antoinette sweeping around the lavish dining room of this landmark Parisian hotel. Alain Ducasse is at the helm of what is one of France’s truly great restaurants. The menu is as classic as the setting. Ducasse brings his signature lightness of touch to dishes such as crispy goat cheese and sorrel amuse-bouche and blue lobster with black garlic and sea potatoes (a type of urchin). The wine list boasts all the most prestigious French wines, as well as some lesser-known surprises, including interesting varietals from Greece.
