How to look like a regular? Being clever in order to avoid a huge rip-off when the bill shows up. Go for the lemongrass coconut shrimp soup (22€), spring rolls (18€), their club sandwich (24€) or the veggie curry (26€)—and just wait for the socialite spectacle...
Who does one run into? It could be Sharon Stone or Gad Elmaleh, Guillaume Canet, Léa Seydoux; Arielle Dombasle, (with a lit cigarette); Beigbeder and his new honey. In short, all the hot shots show up here.
