The Fusion Fare at Le Cheval d’Or is Exquisite

Lazu is Quietly Achieving Bistronomic Perfection
This bistronomic restaurant is exactly what I hope for when I stumble across a little-known gem, with soulful, seasonal cuisine that surprises at every turn.
Double is a Micro-Restaurant Loaded with Originality
The daring and creativity of Chef Tsuyoshi Yamakawa cannot be denied, but Double is not a restaurant I’d recommend to just anyone. The no-choice prix fixe means you cannot be picky, and above all, the shared format means you’ll need to go with someone you know quite well.

Chinese and Japanese Flavors Are a Match Made in Heaven at Horiz
Rice often seems to take a secondary role in Westernized Asian restaurants, but brothers Alexandre and Olivier Lin have put it center-stage at Horiz, where rice is the star of every dish – and most of the drinks.
