Fodor's Expert Review Pavyllon

This is a great opportunity to sample chef Yannick Alléno's cooking for a (slightly) less lofty price tag than at his three-star Pavillon Ledoyen on the same premises. Make no mistake, though guests are seated around a bar, this is as sophisticated an eatery as they come. Alléno's signature flourishes are everywhere, in dishes such as spring lamb with cardamom froth and curry and black lemon from Iran. On fine days it's a pleasure to dine on the terrace in the leafy park overlooking the Petit Palais.
