La Fermette Marbeuf : 5 rue Marbeuf - 75008
In 1898, it was a simple hotel dining-room. Mr Hurté,
a talented young architect, and Wielhorski, the painter, produced
an authentic Art Nouveau décor. Neglected and forgotten,
it was re-discovered by chance during the work carried out in
1978. The Fermette Marbeuf 1900, a mere stone's throw from the
Champs-Elysées, is unique and should be added to your list
of historic monuments to be admired. The greatest classics are
all on offer, such as the "7-hour" lamb fondant, veal
chop with morels or an émincé of beef fillet with
paprika.
