Just when I thought Ladurée couldn’t get any better, they open up the gorgeous new Ladurée Bar at their Champs-Elysées location. Where there was once just a wall at the end of the pastry counter, is now a doorway leading to an elegant bar open from 7:30am-1am (until 2am Fri-Sat, opens at 10am on Sat-Sun). The design is a contemporary take on an Art Nouveau butterfly cocoon, and this photo simply doesn’t do it justice.
The difference between Le Bar and the Salon du Thé? Namely, the speed at
which you’re served (which, I must admit, is always a sore point when
you’re trying to eat and leave in under two hours). Just take a seat at
the bar and order gourmet “snacks” such as salmon salads, truffle
omelettes, foie gras, caviar blinis, lobster gazpacho soup, etc (from
€10-30). There are also the famous Ladurée pastries, breakfast in the
morning, and a full bar of cocktails, wine, Champagne, beers, and
spirits.
Opened since September 22, I had a peek last night with
my friends and it was already packed full. At night the walls glow in
the low-lit bar, a très sexy atmosphere for your late-night rendez-vous. 😉
