Looking for a refined, quality aperitif? The Mandarin Oriental offers the Paris-Tivo at its bar, Bar 8. Comprising a cocktail of your choice and three tasty amuse-bouches, it's sure to please even the most discerning gourmets.

Temperatures are starting to drop, and it's hard to enjoy an aperitif on a terrace right now... Except under the heated lamps of the Mandarin Oriental's winter terrace! This winter, Bar 8, the hotel's bar, offers you its Paris-Tivo, a revisited cocktail accompanied by three appetizers.

In the splendid setting of the Mandarin Oriental, beautifully decorated for the festive season, we settle down on the winter terrace of Bar 8, carefully heated by heat lamps above our heads. Once comfortably installed, we choose one of the three cocktails offered in the Paris-Tivo formula:

  • Italicus Negroni: Italicus, Campari, Dolin Red Vermouth, Fernet Branca
  • Italicus Sour: Italicus, Fig liqueur, Verjus, Egg white, Sugar syrup
  • Not a last word: Gin, Italicus, Lime, Chartreuse

Which will be accompanied by a mini truffle croque-monsieur , a chicken-curry cromesquis and an avocado-shrimp brioche bun with cocktail sauce. Our favorite is the mini truffle croque-monsieur, with its perfectly balanced truffle flavor. Hearty enough for an aperitif, Bar 8's Paris-Tivo amuse-bouches are the perfect accompaniment to your cocktail.

We were able to try the Not a last word cocktail , well proportioned and sure to please gin fans; as well as the Italicus Sour, with a thicker consistency thanks to the egg white, and just as fragrant as the first. Bar 8's Paris-Tivo, in the luxurious surroundings of the Mandarin Oriental, costs €35 and is perfect for a refined aperitif or a special occasion.
