“Brill and clams – Sake kasu”, Ogata (l.), Auberge Nicolas Flamel (dr.)

Since March 22, Le Marais has had two new Michelin-starred restaurants – to which Le Marais Mood has also drawn attention in recent months. Among the 49 new French winners of the 2022 Michelin Guide are in factAuberge Nicolas Flamel, rue de Montmorency, and Ogata, temple of Japanese cuisine, rue de Debelleyme.

Sweetbreads, eggplant, rhubarb, elderberry – Auberge Nicolas Flamel

These two restaurants in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris won their first star. And join five starred establishments in the Marais, all located in the 4th arrondissement: Anne at the Pavillon de la Reine (place des Vosges), Benoit (rue Saint-Martin), Restaurant H (rue Jean-Beausire) and Le Sergent Recruiter (on the 'Ile Saint-Louis). To these “one stars” is obviously added L’Ambroisie, a three-star restaurant on the Place des Vosges that needs no introduction.

« HIRUZEN A lunch with vegetable flavors to match our teas and wagashi. » – Ogata

AboutAuberge Nicolas Flamel and of its new chef, Marais Mood wrote last November: “Grégory Garimbay transforms a series of classic dishes into a treat. And he does this “instinctively and in the moment”, as it is written on the wall of the open kitchen which opens onto the room. » As for Ogata, we praised it in these terms: “At this level of sophistication we can speak of haute couture. A true UFO, the Japanese address which opened at the end of 2020 rue Debelleyme, reaches heights in excellence and precision. » Le Marais Mood does not change a word, persists and signs!

Pushing the door of Bel Canto is like entering the opera. On the upper quay of the Seine, facing Ile Saint-Louis, Bel Canto is not an ordinary restaurant. Here, we dine but above all, we come to listen to the great classics of lyrical art, performed by... the room staff!

Secret, or discreet, addresses are sometimes the best. This is the case of the Azzedine Alaïa Foundation café-restaurant, in the Marais, very close to the BHV.

Tattooing, an age-old practice, has long been the prerogative of convicts, dock workers, the underworld and sailors. Although it has become democratized, now affecting all profiles and concerning one in five French people, including 16% women compared to 10% men, it still remains taboo due to its definitive and transgressive nature.
