Pershing Hall

This is a restaurant/lounge with a hanging garden and one of the most spectacular places I've ever seen. The Pershing Hall hotel lounge is located in the 8th arrondissement of Paris and is simply breathtaking.

They've installed a hanging vertical garden in the hotel courtyard and the tables of the lounge/restaurant have some amazing views.

As with many of Europe’s most famous hanging gardens, this one is work of the French botanist Patrick Blanc. Being in Paris and in such a surrounding, I was pretty apprehensive about getting the bill and, honestly, my apprehension was justified!

Just amazing. Top-notch service and one of the most chic atmospheres in Paris.

The price is more than reasonable given the restaurant: it comes out to around 80 euros with desserts. You have to visit this upscale and fashionable lounge.

I was here last weekend and the truth is that it was a unique and truly Parisian experience. From those who received us (very handsome all of them, like something out of a movie casting) to the exquisite plates, we always wanted more. As it's an institution in Paris, I'll repeat my visit a thousand more times every time I go back to Paris. It's not great if you're on a budget but it's worth the experience of treating your palate. The atmosphere, the food, the attention, the place. Everything was top-notch and in good taste. If you're looking for a chic ambiance worthy of being in Paris, I'd recommend this place.
