Paris: Day 1

So here I am in Paris! And I am so excited! After a long travel from Berlin, I was kind of really exhausted so it was great when I arrived to Mandarin Oriental Hotel on Saint Honore. My room has the biggest terrace in hotel (YAY!) and a great view on the garden. However the suite is so narrow (NAY!) that I barely put all my luggages on the right place.
For my first walk with the dog I visited few of the shops and took photos of the windows!

Lanvin (the queen of the best windows in Paris!)
And then for the first time in my life I went to the Chanel’s boutique on Rue Cambon and saw those legendary stairs were Coco Chanel was sitting!

After I went to the Costes Hotel (Unfortunately no sits were avable in restaurant that is ultra trendy) and took some picture of the Lounge, flower shop and fragrance shop.

And before the dinner I found a great art gallery with this:

And now the key of the day. Sur Mesure. This restaurant in my hotel that should be the “best” restaurant in Paris was… bad. First of all I ordered the 9 meal menu with super small portions. And here are the 5 essentials of the dinner:

1. Structured and Destructed Turnip- no comment. 4/10

2. Pressed Foie Gras, smoked eel- Oh why, why? How I HATE EEL! And the worst thing is, it was mixed with foie gras… 2/10

3. Soy and Oyster Risotto- interesting, interesting…I didn’t know it is possible to make a risotto without rice! 7/10

4. Lobster- the best of all! 8/10

5. Sweet Bento and Ylang and Ylang- a very sweet dessert from Japan! 7/10
I don’t recommend this restaurant. And here is the interior (really out of this world):
