Looking for a great place to take a break between Christmas shopping sessions? Head to theSofitel Scribe Paris Opéra 's Christmas Tea Time , a delightful gourmet break in the heart of the 9th arrondissement, a stone's throw fromthe Opéra Garnier. As part of the holiday season, the Rivages du Scribe restaurant welcomes Parisians and food-loving tourists from December 1 to 31, 2025, every day from 3 to 5 p.m., for an enchanting tea time.
The Rivages restaurant offers a truly intimate and cozy setting that invites you to relax. We particularly love this room, which makes us see life through rose-colored glasses with its comfortable pink armchairs, set under a glass roof bathed in natural light. The atmosphere is taken up a notch with Christmas decorations adorning the fireplace, creating the festive and warm atmosphere we seek at this time of year. The attentive service completes the picture, making this moment even more enjoyable, far from the hustle and bustle of Paris.
The menu starts with a savory starter that combines delicate flavors. The semi-cooked foie gras accompanied by gingerbread melts delicately in the mouth, while the lobster roll is perfectly crispy and the salmon heart with its lemon condiment brings a welcome freshness. This gourmet introduction sets the tone for this wonderful discovery.
Next, it's time for something sweet with a plate of three signature treats. The pear and four-spice tartlet reveals those spicy notes typical of Christmas that we love so much. The praline puff pastry brioche offers a delicious crunch that is hard to resist, while the chocolate and peanut cookie comforts with its generosity. These sweet treats celebrate the flavors of the season and showcase the establishment's true pastry expertise.
The highlight of the show comes with the hotel's signature Yule logs, offered in individual portions to end this tasting experience on a high note. The citrus and buckwheat version brings a modern and fresh touch, while the chocolate, tonka bean, and caramel version will appeal to lovers of intense and comforting treats. These miniature creations embody the excellence of French pastry-making and are two of our favorites to end the tasting.
To make the experience even more special, you can accompany these delicacies with a glass of champagne or a mocktail, included in the €45 package. The rich and creamy hot chocolate, perfect for this time of year, is a great choice for this gourmet interlude.
