I had breakfast at Plaza Athénée, Paris a couple of weeks ago. It may seem posh as an habit. Let me say it’s damned worth the $90 I paid for.

It’s been 5 years, I guess, that having brunch is a trendy week end activity. A lot of restaurant have debuted their own. While the quality steadily falls down over time, the prices continuously rise. I won’t give any name that does that. Yet I am giving one, right here, that remains a wonderful experience. For the meals and the decor.

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. Everyday, I wake up 30 minutes earlier and save time to get a good starting.

Hence doing breakfast in a resort is the ultimate treat. Almost better than shopping on and errand. It’s an over the top bud’s experience in a mythic place at a reasonable price given that it’s an étoilé restaurant in a resort. (Yes I know, the breakfast is not étoilé, but Ducasse is. 3 stars buddy!).

Are you ready? Come on with me.

I start with the staff. Warm, considerate. They’re truely nice. I arrived. I felt home.

Second, the place! It’s beauty.
