Table For Deux At LouLou
When you hear people say they went to Paris and fell in love, it’s probably because they had lunch at LouLou. If you find yourself lucky enough to snag a reservation at the coveted Riviera inspired restaurant in the middle of Louvre, you are granted full Parisian bragging rights. The real estate alone is of absolute privilege - a curtsy to historic monuments and cultural luxury.

A play on “Louvre”, the bright and changing menu mimics the names lightheartedness by premiering simplistic and authentic ingredients in every artisanal dish. Pulling inspirations from the French and Italian riviera, Benoit Dargère wanted guests to be happily greeted with familiar yet sensational plates. Much like if your Nonna let you taste test her pesto sauce with a silver spoon. The two part aesthetic is the work of Joseph Dirand. The compartmentalized rooms give off a breath of intimacy and coziness. Panoramic oil paintings of Flanders landscapes French the walls with intrigue and authenticity - allowing the eyes to wander and feast beyond the fork and knife.
