Paris | The brilliant restaurant with Eiffel Tower view
️Le Ciel de Paris
📍Tour Maine Montparnasse, 56th Floor, Av. du Maine, 75015 Paris, France
This scenic restaurant at the top of the Montparnasse Tower is incredibly popular and often fully booked. When my friend and I visited, we were lucky with the sunny weather and got a window seat to watch the Eiffel Tower light up as the sky gradually darkened. The view was stunning!
As for the food, it's fair to say that the main attraction here is definitely the ambiance rather than the cuisine.
️We chose the €68 set menu.
🦢 The foie gras tasted similar to what you'd find in a supermarket—not bad, but the bread was very hard.
🦞 The lobster bisque had an elegant foam layer on top, with a rich, creamy flavor. The shrimp flavor itself was just average.
🦞 My friend ordered the seafood, which was generally decent but had a very mild taste.
🐂 I had the mashed potatoes with veal, and the sauce was flavorful and well-seasoned, with the meat tender and soft.
🍮 For dessert, we had a rather ordinary chocolate cake and vanilla panna cotta. Neither was overly rich, and they were fine.
Overall, it came to about €80 per person. It’s worth it on a clear day for the view!
