La Réserve Paris - which has just been awarded the “Palace” distinction - has just also opened its second restaurant called “La Pagode de Cos” in homage to Cos d’Estournel, the vineyard property of the Michel Reyber Hospitality group. Very fond of the Far East, its founder Louis Gaspard had exotic pagodas built on top of the wine cellars. This oriental spirit is reflected in the decor and cuisine of this refined restaurant, orchestrated by Chef Jérôme Blanctel. La Réserve Paris, 42 avenue Gabriel, Paris 8 (01 5836 60 50).
