The setting of the Ralph Lauren's flagship store in Paris is magnificent. Having dinner in the courtyard of this city mansion is fabulous. The service is unexpectedly professional. I had wrongly assumed a Costes-brother-like service, but it is on contrary courteous and efficient.
This is all too nice for the type of food which is served here. Ingredients are said to be coming from the best sources (including Mr Ralph Lauren's personal ranch for the beef). However, the preparation barley exceeds the level of home-cooking. It is disappointing as I am sure they have the means to deliver something absolutely fantastic.
Two excellent snacks retained my attention though: the fried olives and the caramel pop-corn, the kind of things you can't stop nibbling.
Next time, I will take pictures of the setting in order to fairly reflect the experience.
