Apollo Restaurant & Bar
Apollo Restaurant & Bar is one of the biggest restaurant places in Paris.
It was once the baggage-handing office of the local RER station and now its a cool 1970s retro styled restaurant.
They serve a global menu with signature dishes of seven-hour roasted beef with cumin carrots, or sushi, or dessert of banana and pineapple with vanilla rum.
At Apollo, multi-colored bubble lamps dangle over brightly patterned tables, mad room divider is filled with bright plastic kitchen utensils, and curved mirrors reflect the scene.

The Patisserie of Dreams
La Pâtisserie des Rêves (the patisserie of dreams) is not your ordinary pastry shop. Unlike most pastry shops that keep the goodies behind a counter, pastry chef extraordinaire, Philippe Conticini displays his creations throughout the entire space, adding to the gallery-like ambiance.
A central island showcases a series of temperature-controlled glass domes containing demo desserts that, when chosen for purchase, come fresh from the back kitchen.
