Fodor's Expert Review Le Georges
One of those showstopping rooftop venues so popular in Paris, Le Georges preens atop the Centre Georges Pompidou. Part of the Costes brothers' empire, the establishment trots out fashionable dishes such as sesame-crusted tuna and coriander-spiced beef fillet flambéed with cognac. The staff is as streamlined and angular as the furniture, and about as responsive. Come snappily dressed or you may be relegated to something resembling a dentist's waiting room. The food is considerably less dazzling than the view, except for the suitably decadent desserts. It's best for a pause between exhibitions to indulge in a glass of wine and to take in some of the best views of Paris.
