Balthazar

Balthazar  Housed in a recent renovated villa (dating from 1914), Balthazar is a fashionable restaurant, a favourite choice of diplomats, actors and expats.

Stylish banquettes, an original message-tree, adequate relaxing music create an enchanting atmosphere. There is also a lovely summer terrace. The service is efficient and discreet.
In a single word : flawless ! The “fusion” cuisine is an impressive mix of French refinement and Asian exuberance. The menu is ever-changing, but fish, shrimps, duck or chicken can always be found on the list.
Also Dim Sum or salmon tartar as appetizers, Miso soup, duck with caramelized pineapple. For dessert, there’s no better choice than pears in chocolate sauce.
