Would-be food stars come to Paris and chef Gilles Epie earned a Michelin star at 22. He returns from years in L.A. and rediscovers French classics, applying his California touch. Expensive and service can vary from night to night. Being near the Champs d’Elysees means they cater to a lot of foreign visitors; that means they push expensive wines as “perfect for your meal”, for example. The food is very good, however. LG
