Oui! Monsieur BleuFariha Ansari Javed

• Situated within the Palais de Tokyo, Monsieur Ble
  has an unparalleled vantage point of the Eiffel
  Tower and the Seine. I first visited this
  beautiful establishment in the summer of 2015
  while I was in Paris for the Paris Air Show. The
  restaurant came highly recommended and we made
  reservations 3 days in advance for a table on the
  bustling outdoor terrace.

• This September, after Maison et Objet had wrapped
  up, two of our close family friends joined us in
  Paris. One morning, after a heavy breakfast, the
  four of us decided to walk from Saint Germain to
  Monsieur Bleu. The 5 kilometer walk should have
  taken us about an hour but we clocked in at 2
  hours instead. Walking through Jardin des
  Tuileries, the culprits were the beautiful
  flowers that forced us to lower our pace and
  enjoy the exceptional landscaping.
• By the time we made it to lunch, we had worked up
  an appetite. The restaurant was completely full
  indoors since the 600 square meter terrace had
  been closed (unseasonal cold weather!). Joseph
  Dirand is the architect behind the stunning
  interior of the restaurant and Benjamin Masson
   is the Chef behind the exceptional food.
