Among the multitude of restaurants in the capital, some tables are more suitable for a business lunch than others, with their intimate atmosphere and their signature dishes that never disappoint. A short summary of our favourites.

Restaurant Bachaumont
At the Restaurant Bachaumont, in the hotel of the same name, you can sit down under a beautiful glass roof, in a neo-classical decor, while the plates follow one another efficiently. Everything is cooked to perfection, from the mimosa egg to the smoked mackerel, including the whiting roll and the beef cheek. The good point: the tables are far enough apart to protect private conversations.

About Us
The most luxurious table of the Costes brothers, the Société is divinely installed opposite the Benedictine abbey of Saint Germain des Près, which can be admired especially on fine days, seated at the very green terrace of the restaurant. In a sumptuously decorated room, with large reinforcements of marble, mahogany and leather, you can taste the signatures of the house while being sure not to be disturbed.

The Gramont
Ideally located on the Boulevard des Italiens, this mythical brasserie offers gourmet bistro cuisine. With its chic and timeless decor, its fine woodwork and its brass bar, halfway between a brasserie and a restaurant, Le Gramont welcomes its customers in a warm atmosphere. Having become a real headquarters for some workers in the neighborhood, this atypical brasserie has entered the Culinary College of France thanks to its desire to give the best of France on its plates by working only with fresh and high quality products.

The Blue Train
If you are looking for a very chic restaurant in the 12rd arrondissement, head for Le Train Bleu, a Gare de Lyon institution. In this elegant setting made up of gilding, moldings and other sparkling chandeliers, you can enjoy French gourmet cuisine through 'homemade' dishes: leg of leg, tartare, duck foie gras, smoked salmon, Foyot roast veal chop, baba with rum… The great added value of Le Train Bleu remains their extensive wine list.

Newly orchestrated by Alain Ducasse, the Rech is a mythical brasserie that saw itself reborn with the arrival of the great chef.

taokan
With its discreet cozy atmosphere and smiling welcome, Taokan's spirit immediately puts you at ease. The tables are spaced out, to each his own comfort. On the plate, the dishes are prepared from the best, fresh and original ingredients and the different flavors take us on a most exquisite journey. The menu is varied (with several vegetarian options) and served with exemplary speed. Special favorite for the soft crabs sautéed with salt and pepper!
