Georges, Paris

"Café Georges" is worth the detour just for its amazing view: roof floor from the center of Paris, no tall building around, and one feels much closer to all the surrounding monuments than looking from the skyscraper Montparnasse.
The minimalist decor and furniture are extremely elegant and modern, without any pretention to compete against the view from the large windows. The roses on the tables have already become one reference in the Paris chic scene.
The food is good (could find better of course), though expensive (have to pay for the view), the service is quite good comparing to the other fancy lounge clubs (eg Buddha Bar where you have to wait for 30 min to get the menu, then 30 min to pass the order, another 30 min to get your drink).
Anyway, one of my favorite places in Paris, especially by night, I just cannot get bored with the view and the ambiance!
