New Parisian Hotel, Hot Aperol, and Pappa al Pomodoro (Italian bread soup)
Discover One of Paris' Most Exclusive Lunch Experiences; Learn to make pot-au-feu, and the newest hotel in Paris’ Le Marais neighborhood
Paris’ Le Marais neighborhood recently welcomed its newest addition, a design-forward luxury hotel. Luxury hoteliers Maisons Pariente, known for their properties in St. Tropez, Provence, and the French Alps, completely refurbished the property with 60 rooms, a stunning indoor pool, gym filled with Technogym equipment, and Boubale, a fabulous Ashkanazi Jewish restaurant and bar. Beautiful design, personal service, fantastic food are guaranteed — all just steps from some of Paris’ most popular restaurants and attractions.
Pappa al pomodoro is one of the most representative recipes of Tuscan cucina povera. The main ingredients are stale Tuscan bread—a bread that, according to the rest of Italy, is bland, because it is made without salt—and fresh tomatoes (but a can of good peeled tomatoes works just as well).
Must Drink Winter Drink: Hot Aperol
After visiting German Christmas markets, where every corner is filled with the aroma of spiced mulled wine and festive treats, we were inspired to recreate a bit at home. We decided to perfect the Hot Aperol, a delightful and easy-to-make cocktail that captures the essence of a cozy winter evening.

The term pot-au-feu (pot on the fire) designates both the cooking vessel and the contents of this meat-and-vegetable recipe that was once a special-occasion dish for the working classes and a common dish of bourgeois cuisine.

Recently reopened after a break for family reasons, this restaurant is one of the hardest reservations to get in Paris. We love the story behind couple Robert and Jessica’s passion project which is now only open for lunch so that they can spend their evenings at home with their two young children.
