There a couple of fast food Thai places along the pedestrian zone and also the perennial take out (or eat in with plastic chopsticks) Chinese restaurants, the kind you find all over Paris, along this route. But this restaurant is elegant and refined and will run your credit card up a few digits, too. The ambiance is welcoming and whisks you into an oasis of fresh orchid flowers. The way they've arranged the lighting, the flowers are presented as works of art. This, too, is how the food is presented, as both a culinary achievement and a work of art.
