Initially scheduled for December 2015, the re-opening of the Ritz (closed for renovation since August 1st, 2012) will finally take place at the beginning of 2016. To keep us on tenterhooks, the management has just revealed the name of the Pastry Chef who will officiate alongside Kitchen Director Nicolas Sale : François Perret. Born in Bourg-en-Bresse, this accomplished professional won his spurs at Le Meurice, Le George V and Le Lancaster before winning 2 Michelin stars at Le Shangri-La. The gem on Place Vendôme is being treated to an exemplary team. Ritz, 15 Place Vendôme, Paris 1 (www.ritzparis.com).
