One of the best of any Costes Brothers eatery, L'Avenue is an 8th mainstay located opposite Christian Dior in a meticulous brassiere decorated by Jacques Garcia and visited by virtually celebrity and VIP from Kanye West to Lee Radziwill. A black marque hangs over a starry terrace trimmed in white fabric drapes and high-wattage clientele in winter as well as summer. Inside, a dark and sexy space is layered in heavy red velvet, Murano chandeliers and seductive lounge space that perk with life from day till very late night.
The Food
A traditional brasserie menu with trendy flair begins with a morning breakfast menu of egg, pastry and smoked fish specialties. Lunch and dinner are a more elaborate affair with homemade foie grass served with toast pints, full raw bar and delectable selection of supermodel-friendly salads. Main course touches on land and sea with classic steak frites, locally-caught trout and traditional chicken all served till the wee hours of the morning complete with midnight DJs and 2am star sightings.
Last Word
Sexy all-day supper club is a scene from breakfast through 2am with brasserie menu and high-wattage clientele.
