Restaurant in Paris

[TheGrinch55]

Can anyone recommend a really good Paris restaurant for next week - our 30th Wedding anniversary and the first time we have been away without any of our 7 children - plus just had the all clear after 5 years of Post breast cancer check ups so somewhere special please!

Hi,
the Moulin Rouge was great when we went (although it is about 5 years ago). I can't remember what the food was like, it was the whole thing that was great. the only downside may be that it is shared tables so you would be sitting with strangers on your anniversary. Having said that you are too busy watching the show to talk to strangers.
Hope it helps!

The terrace restaurant, Georges, on the top of the Centre Pompidou has a fabulous view over Paris. Food is not gastronomic, but absolutely fine.

What sort of thing are you looking for?

Well somewhere pretty expensive to be frank. My husband doesnt eat meat so it would have to be somewhere with fish on the menu - I see Guy Savoy is No 1 on trip advisor but am prob. a bit late for that and any others similar. I liked the fact its not supposed to be v.pretentious but good food.

Hélène Darroze?

Somewhere I have always wanted to go mainly because Napoleon went there is the Grand Vefour in Rue de Beaujolais near the Palais Royale (supposedly the decor and chairs haven't changed since then). Have only ever looked throught the windows but the interior looks lovely and it is expensive (which is why I haven't been).

Congratulations by the way.

Thanks for all the lovely suggestions - have managed to get a lunch appt. at Guy Savoy which has the advantage of being cheaper than dinner and my husband should manage to stay awake at that time. The last time we ate out in Paris was decades ago and it was very much a pig trotter in jelly type menu and a mouse ran up the wall behind my husband's head.
