Sheltered from view, this century-old courtyard on Avenue Montaigne is a real garden brimming with enticing flavours. Relooked by decorator Bruno Moinard, it welcomes guests for lunch or dinner, with creative seasonal dishes concocted by Chef Mathieu Emeraud. One suggestion is smoked eel served with cauliflower, yuzu and golden croutons. Plaza Athénée, 25 avenue Montaigne, Paris 8 (01 53 67 66 65).
