At this level of sophistication we can speak of “haute couture”.
A true UFO, the Japanese address which has just opened on Rue Debelleyme in the 3rd arrondissement, has reached new heights of excellence and precision.
In place of Weber metals (a giant hardware store well known to Parisian workers and DIY enthusiasts) the OGATA house covers almost 900m2 and three floors.
It is a restaurant-tea room-workshop-boutique that presents the ultimate Japanese art of living.
The decor, like the menu and the service, very refined, are taken care of down to the smallest detail.
Hence the prices beyond the reach of ordinary mortals.
We can't help but feel a pang in our hearts when we think that with the closure of Weber Metals one of the last addresses in the Marais populaire has disappeared.
