The meeting of Paris and Japan is set to sparkle at the 5* Hana hotel, set to open its doors a stone's throw from the Opéra Garnier in January. While the decor, by the unstoppable Laura Gonzalez, blends early 20th-century maximalism with Japanese minimalism, suggesting a unique place, it's the restaurant in this 25-room hotel that particularly interests us.
Behind the new Hanabi table is a duo we've come to expect at every turn: Shirley Garrier and Mathieu Zouhairi aka The Social Food, masters in the art of culinary styling, photography and consulting.
From their open-plan kitchen, the duo create creative dishes inspired by the Land of the Rising Sun, bringing together traditional bistro cuisine and Japanese gastronomy: egg mayonnaise with white sesame and furikake hanabi, beef tartare with nashi pear, soba salad with pickled vegetables and miso sauce, and much more.
And when it comes to beverages, mixology enthusiast Mathieu Zouhairi unveils a menu of creative cocktails and toasting sakes.
