JulienLe Blant (born in Paris, March 30, 1851, died in Paris, February 28, 1936) was a French painter of military subjects who specialized in the scenes of the Vendée Wars of 1793–1799 that occurred during the French Revolution. Because he came from a family from the Bas-Poitou, part of the old province of Poitou, Le Blant was descended from the

Although Paris is known for its cafes and cafe culture, where French people relax daily with their strong cups of espresso, there’s a hidden tea culture in Paris. Though not as touted as cafes, Paris has an impressive list of tea salons or salon de the, high tea service at luxury hotels, and casual cafes serving high-quality tea. Tea has always lived in the shadow of coffee in France even though it arrived in 1636, 50 years before coffee. Considered an exotic treasure at the time, tea was imported from China and Japan, becoming popular with the royals and the aristocracy, beginning with Cardinal Jules Mazarin, a French statesman who drank tea to cure his gout. Word got out that tea helped cure common maladies and ailments, so Louis XIV, the Sun King, began drinking tea in 1665 because he learned the Chinese and Japanese rarely had heart disease. He lived till the ripe age of 77, a miracle at that time. King Louis XIV thought tea was so essential, in 1692 he bestowed Francois Damame the exclusive license to sell tea in France and the first tea brand was born, now called Dammann Freres. In 2008, Dammann Freres opened a flagship boutique on the historic Place des Vosges, stocking over 150 tea flavors plus a selection of teapots, gift sets, and teacups. Here’s a full range of tea service in Paris, from the no-holds-barred high tea at five-star hotels to more casual and less expensive options. EQRoy / Shutterstock 1. Hotel Ritz Paris What could be better than having high tea at the Ritz? Not much. The historic Hotel Ritz Paris on the Place Vendome, the pinnacle of French luxury hotels, was recently refurbished from top to bottom to the tune of 200 million euros, which took close to four years to complete. One of the best new additions to the renovation was the Salon Proust, a lounge and tearoom dedicated to the legendary French writer Marcel Proust, a frequent guest at the hotel. Proust was from the Parisian upper class and used to the finer things in life. Salon Proust reflects Proust’s fine taste with plush lounges and club chairs, a selection of books behind handsome, wood doors, elegant sconces, a marble mantle with a working fireplace, and a painted portrait of the handsome and sophisticated Proust. Even the most discriminating tea snob will be astounded by the long list of the highest quality teas on the 17-page menu, which includes black, green, white, and fermented tea plus herbal teas from India, China, and South Africa. Pastry chef Francois Perret has devised a departure from the expected British high tea menu of tea sandwiches and scones, with a decadent, all-sweets menu. A three-tiered, silver tray arrives with a dazzling selection of cakes, sweet breads, cookies, and meringues. When you are done, the check discreetly arrives inside a burgundy leather-bound book by Proust. You also receive a memorable souvenir a mini-tin filled with tea packaged in a blue box embossed with an illustration of the hotel. High tea is served from 230 to 6 daily and is just under 70 euros per person. For an extra 20 euros, you can enhance the experience with a glass of champagne. 2. Shangri-La Hotel Paris The Shangri-La Hotel Paris has the distinction of the only place in Paris that serves a vegan high tea menu. First built in 1896 as a palace for Prince Roland Bonaparte, a relative of Napoleon Bonaparte, the massive space was transformed into the five-star Shangri-La Hotel Paris in 2010. Since the building was designated a historic structure, the hotel still retains a good deal of the original architectural elements from the Louis XIV, Empire, and Greco-Roman periods. Shangri-La Hotels is a Hong Kong-based company that is decidedly Asian inspired. The tea menu features three black Grand Cru selections from Ceylon Ran Watte with notes of peach and citrus; Meda Watte with notes of caramel, figs, and thyme; and Yata Watte, with notes of bay leaf, spices and dried apricot. There’s also Uda Watte with notes of hazelnuts, almonds, dried fruits, and caramel. I was a pastry chef and baker in New York before I moved to Paris and was skeptical that the taste of the pastries made without butter, cream, and eggs would live up to my standards. I was pleasantly surprised! The apple and raisin scones were dense and delicious and served with so-called whipped cream so authentic, I prodded the waiter about what ingredients they used to make it so good. Next up was a selection of nut and chocolate tartlets and not-too-sweet meringues. In case that wasn’t enough, three more desserts arrived pastry cream with a butter cookie crust, vanilla pastry cream, strawberry marmalade all ensconced in a ring of organic strawberries, a pavlova with meringue, jasmine-scented pastry cream, and poached pomelos with vanilla, and, last but not least, a chocolate and salt shortbread with caramel mousse and soft chocolate interior. The Shangri-La experience is currently 45 euros per person 80 euros for two every day from 3 to 6 3. Mariage Freres Tea Salon And Tea Shop Mariage Freres is one of the most beloved and oldest tea brands in France. The story begins in 1854 when brothers Henri and Edouard Mariage open a wholesale tea business, importing teas from Asia and India that were sold to high-end hotels and tea shops. The business successfully continued for four generations of the family and in 1983, Mariage Freres extended into retail outlets and tea salons. The flagship shop in the Marais district is located in the same building where the brothers first had their offices. Designed to resemble an Old-World European tea counter, the charming boutique has authentic wood plank floors, lead glass lanterns, and dark wood shelves lined with their trademark black canisters and yellow labels filled with the most aromatic teas. The staff is dressed in the store uniform, a crisp linen suit, and they diligently cater to the customers, climbing up ladders to the highest shelves to retrieve the ideal tea suited for them. The delightful tea salon in the rear of the shop offers a full lunch and afternoon tea menu. Tea is served in their signature teapot, which has a silver body with a white porcelain spout and handle, plus a tea cozy to keep it warm. You can purchase the same pot to take home in the boutique. Over 1,000 teas are offered on the menu and they use only purified water to make the tea. You have three serving options hot tea, cold infused tea, and iced tea. Tea-infused pastries and desserts are available including frosted madeleines flavored with Earl Grey and matcha green tea, cheesecake flavored with fruit tea, dark chocolate cake with Black Magic Tea and decorated with 24 karat gold leaf, creme brulee with Tibetan Marco Polo tea, and an iced macaron with fresh fruit and rooibos syrup. Before you leave Mariage Freres, make time to visit the Tea Museum on the second floor, which houses artifacts, books, and objects telling the story of the Mariage Freres tea company. The restaurant is open from 12 to 7 and tea service is from 230 to 630 olrat / Shutterstock 4. The Great Mosque Of Paris Tea Room Did you know Paris has an authentic mosque? Grande Mosquee de Paris was built in honor of over 100,000 Muslim soldiers who fought for France in WWI and is located in the Latin Quarter. The mosque has stunning mosaics, a garden with flowers and fountains, a hammam a Turkish-style steam bath, and a Moroccan restaurant and tea salon. The outdoor tea salon resembles a Moroccan cafe, decorated with colored mosaic tiles and carved wood tables. Tea is served in a glass embossed with gold, lined with fresh mint. Moroccan and Middle Eastern pastries such as baklava, gazelle horns, chebakia, and date cookies are available to order. The restaurant serves excellent versions of classic Moroccan dishes such as couscous, tagines, bastilla, and harira. 5. Laduree The most popular macaron maker in France and probably in the world, Laduree started off as a single pastry shop opened in 1862 by Louis Ernest Laduree. In the early 1900s, his wife, Jeanne Souchard, came up with the idea to wed the Parisian cafe with a pastry shop, thus opening the first tea salon in Paris. It was a place where women could freely meet other women for tea during the day without having to be escorted by a man, which was the custom in that time period. Laduree brought in artist Jules Cheret to decorate and paint the tea salon. Cheret was inspired by the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and the new Paris opera house, painting the ceilings with cherubs and gold paint. Today, the opulent tearoom is still intact and a wonderful atmosphere to have afternoon tea with Laduree’s prized macarons. 6. George Cannon A high-quality tea purveyor since 1898, George Cannon imports teas from Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and South America. In the shop on the Left Bank near Montparnasse is a quiet tearoom, a calm oasis to enjoy a cup of tea and delectable pastries flavored with tea. Loyal customers claim that George Cannon makes the best scones in Paris.

Le MeuriceAnyone wanting a grand-slam experience of Gallic gastronomic grandeur won't do better than the glamorous dining room at the Hotel Meurice in the heart of the city. Though it was redecorated by Philippe Starck several years ago, it's good French bones survived intact – mosaic floor, crystal chandeliers, heavy damask curtains at the windows overlooking the Tuileries Gardens across the street – and the magnificent space is animated by old-school but friendly service that's as precise as a minuette. Chef Yannick Alléno bagged a third Michelin star in 2007, and his brilliantly inventive cooking is based on a deep knowledge of classical Escoffier vintage culinary technique. In addition to such recent creations as crispy green ravioli with a fricassee of snails and wild garlic, a starter, and spit-roasted red-wine marinated pigeon with red cabbage and apple juice, Alléno has become a dedicated locavore by occasionally featuring rare produce from the Ile de France – cabbage from Pontoise, honey from hives on the roof of Paris's Opéra Garnier – on his regularly evolving menu. 228 rue de Rivoli, 1st, + 33 1 44 58 10 10, Métro Tuileries. Open for lunch and dinner from Mon-Fri. Average €200. Jackets compulsory at dinner L'AstranceL'AstranceDespite the vertiginous prices of Paris haute cuisine, a meal at one of these nec plus ultra tables is an investment that just can't disappoint, and snagging a sought-after table at chef Pascal Barbot's three-star restaurant on a cobbled side street in the 16th arrondissement is well worth persistence. The smallest and most casual table at the top of the Parisian food chain, this high-ceilinged dining room with mirrored walls, widely spaced tables and friendly service offers a decidedly 21st-century take on French haute cuisine. Barbot, who trained with Alain Passard and once served as chef to the admiral of the French Pacific fleet, loves vegetables, fruit and fresh herbs, and his style is brilliantly witty and deeply imaginative, as seen in signature dishes such as his galette of finely sliced button mushrooms and verjus marinated foie gras dressed with hazelnut oil, or turbot with baby spinach and sea urchins, both of which are part of his regularly changing tasting menus. 4 rue Beethoven, 16th, +33 1 40 50 84 40. Métro Passy. Open for lunch and dinner Tues–Fri. Average lunch €80, average dinner €200Huitrerie RegisHuitrerie RegisTucked away in the heart of Saint Germain des Pres, this snug shop-front table with a white facade and interior is the best place in Paris for a fix of impeccably fresh oysters, which are delivered directly from France's Marennes-Oléron region on the Atlantic coast. Depending upon availability, prawns, clams and sea urchins can also be added to your plateau de fruits de mer, which will be served with bread and butter. A nice selection of mostly Loire valley white wines complements the bivalve-centric menu, and a convivial atmosphere is created by the jovial oyster shuckers and many local regulars. 3 rue de Montfaucon, 6th, +33 1 44 41 10 07, Métro Mabillon or Saint Germain des Pres. Open Tues–Sun for lunch and dinner. Average €35. No reservations MacéoMacéoRun by Englishman Mark Williamson – whose Willi's Wine Bar around the corner is a favourite local bolthole for Parisian oenophiles – this handsome restaurant with oxblood walls, wedding cake mouldings and parquet floors overlooks the Palais Royal in the heart of Paris. Chef Thierry Bourbonnais not only includes many vegetable dishes on his menu – making this a good choice for vegetarians – but features regularly changing tasting menus themed around a single vegetable, such as asparagus or tomatoes. Dishes like scallops marinated in sea weed oil on a bed of quinoa and wild sea bass with baby carrots and mange toute on a bed of cumin-scented bulghur show off his cosmopolitan style. Excellent wine list. 15 rue des Petits-Champs, 1st, +33 1 42 97 53 85, Métro Pyramides or Palais Royal. Open for lunch and dinner Mon-Fri, Sat dinner only. Closed Sun. Prix-fixe menus €33 vegetarian, €38 and €48; average à la carte €60SpringSpring restaurantEver since Chicago-born chef Daniel Rose moved from the 9th arrondissement to a renovated 17th-century house in Les Halles in July 2010, he's been playing to a packed house with his inventive cuisine du marche menu. This talented American shows off just how cosmopolitan the city's culinary talent pool has become, and Parisians have been swooning over dishes such as Basque country trout with avocado and coriander flowers and grilled New Caledonian prawns on a bed of shaved baby fennel. There's also Buvette wine bar in the basement, with a selection of charcuterie, cheese and several plats du jour; and with reservations tough to land for a table upstairs, it's a good bet for anyone who wants to taste Rose's wares without going through the reservation wringer. 6 rue Bailleul, 1st, + 33 1 45 96 05 72, Métro Louvre-Rivoli. Restaurant open for dinner Tues-Sat, lunch Wed-Fri; Buvette open for dinner Tues-Sat. Restaurant average €150; Buvette average €50Les TablettesLes TablettesSignalling a revival of the serious, dressed-up restaurant in Paris which had lost out as a vehicle for young chefs going out on their own in favour of the bistro chef Jean-Louis Nomicos's new table in the swanky 16th arrondissement has a dramatic modern basket-weave interior by French interior designer Anne-Cécile Comar and a dog's leg banquette upholstered in apricot velvet. Nomicos, who most recently cooked at long-running society restaurant Lasserre, trained with Alain Ducasse and is originally from Marseille – which explains the produce-centric nature of his excellent contemporary French cooking and its Provencal accent with a starter such as squid and artichokes barigoule cooked with white wine, lemon and herbs and veal sweetbreads with a confetti of lemon pulp offering good examples of his style. 16 avenue Bugeaud, 16th,+33 1 56 28 16 16, Métro Victor Hugo. Open daily for lunch and dinner. Lunch menu €58; tasting menus €80, €120 and €150; à la carte €90Le StellaLe StellaSince most of Paris's storied brasseries are now owned by corporate chains and serve wiltingly mediocre food, it's a pleasure to head to one of the last remaining independent ones in a quiet corner of the silk-stocking 16th arrondissement for a fine feed of such well-prepared French classics as onion soup, escargots, sole meunière, steak tartare, roast lamb and other Gallic standards. The people-watching here might be subtitled "the discreet charm of the bourgeoisie", service is efficient and this place has what the French call du gueule, or real character. 133, avenue Victor Hugo, 16th, +33 1 56 90 56 00. Métro Victor Hugo. Open daily for lunch and dinner. Average €45ThoumieuxThoumieux Restaurant GastronomiquePreviously head chef at the glamorous Les Ambassadeurs at the Hotel de Crillon, chef Jean-Francois Piège went out on his own two years ago when he rebooted Thoumieux, a long-running Left Bank brasserie known for its cassoulet and huge resident cat. While the new menu and slick Manhattan supper club décor at this address created a lot of buzz, this gastronomically witty young chef's talent was never really on display here until he opened an intimate first-floor restaurant with a Las Vegas, rat-pack decor by Parisian interior designer India Mahdavi at the same address last autumn. A veteran of several Alain Ducasse kitchens, the very shrewd Piège understood that the traditional French restaurant experience needed tweaking – people go out now to have a good time, eschew formatted formality, and don't always want the three-step performance of starter, main and pudding. So here you can order a single dish, maybe a delicious riff on paella comprised of lobster, langoustines, squid, baby clams and cockles in a saffron-spiked shellfish fumet, and still get a suite of hors d'oeuvres to start, a cheese course and dessert. Not surprisingly, this restaurant just won two Michelin stars in one fell swoop. 79 rue Saint Dominique, 7th, +33 1 47 05 79 00, Métro La Tour Maubourg. Open daily for dinner only. Average €75Yam'TchaYam'TchaAfter training with chef Pascal Barbot at the three-star L'Astrance, young Burgundy-born cook Adeline Grattard – one of the still rare female chefs in Paris – did a stint in Hong Kong during which she fell in love with Asian produce and cooking techniques and met her husband Chiwah, who works as the tea steward as an alternative to wine, you can be served a different tea with every course of your meal here. At their small charming restaurant near Les Halles, with a beamed ceiling and ancient stone walls, Grattard's tasting menus change according to her daily shop, but dishes such as grilled scallops on a bed of bean sprouts in bright green wild-garlic sauce and a superb dessert of homemade ginger ice-cream with avocado slices and passion fruit deliciously display the finely honed culinary technique and imagination that won her a Michelin star. 4 rue Sauval, 1st, +33 1 40 26 08 07. Métro Louvre-Rivoli. Open for lunch and dinner Wed-Sat, Sun dinner only. Prix-fixe menus €50 and €85Ze Kitchen GalerieZe Kitchen GalerieStyled like the neighbouring art galleries on this Saint Germain des Pres side street, this loft-like white space with parquet floors is furnished with steel tables and chairs and decorated with contemporary art. Chef William Ledeuil's popular restaurant offers an intriguing experience of contemporary French cooking. Ledeuil, who trained with Guy Savoy, is fascinated by Asia and makes imaginative use of oriental herbs and ingredients in original dishes like Sardinian malloreddus pasta with a pesto of Thai herbs, parmesan cream and green olive condiment, or grilled monkfish with an aubergine marmelade and Thai-seasoned sauce vierge. 4 rue des Grands-Augustins, 6th, +33 1 44 32 00 32, Métro Odeon. Open for lunch and dinner Mon-Sat. Average €55Average prices are per person without wine
L’un est un virtuose de la musique. L’autre, un surdoué de la gastronomie, étoilé au Michelin. Ils s’appréciaient sans jamais s’être rencontrés. Un oubli réparé dans les cuisines du Meurice, le célèbre palace parisien. Leur biographie est à la hauteur de leur grade. Ils sont chefs et l’on a déjà tout dit sur eux. Ou presque. Maestro Myung-Whun Chung, actuel directeur musical de l’Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France, est connu dans le monde entier, et Yannick Alleno, trois étoiles au Guide rouge », régale les papilles des plus fins gastronomes. Oui, mais voilà , ces deux forts caractères ne s’étaient jamais croisés. Membre de l’Arop Association pour le rayonnement de l’Opéra de Paris, le chef du Meurice trouve des similitudes entre la musique classique et sa passion. En cuisine, comme dans un orchestre, le rythme est primordial. Nous, notre partition, on la lit deux fois par jour. C’est chaque fois un nouveau défi. » Et le verdict de ses spectateurs, ses clients, se fait en salle. Comme un chef d’orchestre, je suis derrière mon pupitre, assure-t-il. Mais je sors souvent de mon rôle pour rester en contact avec le produit et ma brigade. On pourrait dire que ce sont mes musiciens à moi...» Assis dans le bureau du maître des lieux, Myung-Whun Chung écoute attentivement Yannick Alleno. Depuis son enfance, il est fasciné par la gastronomie et ses artistes. Mes parents tenaient un petit restaurant familial à Seattle, aux Etats-Unis. A 8 ans, je traînais déjà dans les cuisines et j’assistais le chef. C’était mon père...» s’amuse le maestro, qui n’a jamais osé apprendre la cuisine française. C’est trop compliqué pour moi. » La cuisine française s’est modernisée, rassure le chef étoilé en s’adressant à Myung-Whun Chung. Il y a toujours une tradition du jus, des sauces, mais c’est une cuisine plus vive. » Tout en goûtant un risotto encore fumant, le chef d’orchestre ne peut s’empêcher de poser la question Combien de temps pour atteindre ce niveau de perfection ? Vous êtes très jeune [38 ans]... Dans la musique classique, il faut au moins soixante ans de pratique ! » Réponse du maître queux La perfection est subjective en cuisine. Cela fait vingt-deux ans et j’apprends encore tous les jours. » Le risotto terminé, le maestro veut aussi faire partager sa passion à son hôte. Et il sait comment l’étonner. Il sort de sa poche sa baguette fétiche, celle-là même qui lui sert à diriger parfois plus de 130 musiciens. C’est une branche d’olivier que j’ai poncée avec du papier de verre. » Peu de chose pour Myung-Whun Chung, mais tout un symbole pour Yannick Alleno, qui, lui, est à la tête d’une brigade de 70 personnes. Moi, c’est avec la voix que je les dirige. Mais un seul regard suffit souvent pour se comprendre...» Myung-Whun Chung acquiesce du sien, en signe de complicité. Myung-Whun Chung et l’Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France, en concert à la Salle Pleyel les 21 et 28 septembre symphonies de Dvorak.
