Nestled in the heart of the palace Le Shangri-La Hotel Paris, La Bauhinia offers a true green getaway. With its unique view of the Eiffel Tower and its intimate atmosphere, the restaurant is the ideal setting for a memorable gourmet break.

Inspired by the flower of the same name – which adorns the flag of Hong Kong - The Bauhinia is a tribute to the group's Asian origins Shangri-La. If inside, the superb glass dome (designed by the famous architect Maurice Gras) bathes the restaurant in light, since 2019, La Bauhinia has unveiled a magnificent flowery terrace, which can be found as soon as the good weather arrives… 

On weekends, from 15 p.m. to 18 p.m., it is the new tea time of Pastry Chef Maxence Barbot that the restaurant serves to its customers. On the menu: sweet treats, each more exquisite than the next, which will delight gourmets. Éclat café, Mont Blanc, exotic roll, 65% cuba chocolate, Bordeaux canelé and other cookies are some of the signature pastries of the moment. Must-try: the 'Tatin of sharing' ! With its perfect puff pastry and its melting and tangy apples, accompanied by a delicious cream... you will melt with pleasure.

This divine snack is definitely the new meeting place for gourmets, comfortably installed under the beautiful glass roof of the Bauhinia. 

La Bauhinia at Shangri-La Paris, 10 Avenue d'Iéna 75116 Paris. Tea Time with hot drink €55/person (€100 for two) or €65/person (€140 for two) with a glass of champagne.
