Places: Loulou Restaurant, Paris

Weekday Wanderlust

It’s been a while since I’ve tried something other than my favourite places, but this new place has already become much loved. The design is exquisite and the menu so delicious: the super chic and stylish Loulou was designed by Joseph Dirand, one of the most talented designers in Paris.

The selection of materials and colours for the decor are my favorite design elements: lacquered black and white chairs, plastered chandeliers, gilded mirrors and velour seats in Sixties-style orange, and marble flooring. I loved all the details like the big windows overlooking over the Tuileries, Musée d’Orsay and Musée du Louvre, loved the mirrored panels and the marbled fireplaces.

Benoit Dargère is the executive chef of Loulou, as well as Monsieur Bleu and Girafe.

On the menu, you’ll find purple artichoke and parmesan salad, zucchini flower fritters, thin pizzas, fresh pasta, osso buco, catch of the day, light tiramisu, millefeuille with fresh raspberries and more.
