Appealing to travelers in search of creative, multicultural restaurants, fusion cuisine takes you to the crossroads of flavors from the four corners of the globe. In Paris, there are many restaurants where you can combine the cuisine of several countries on the same plate.
To help you in your quest, let's conquer the capital's restaurants where you can enjoy fusion cuisine!
There are no limits to freedom and creativity in the kitchen, and fusion cuisine is the perfect example. Combining on the same plate techniques, flavors, ingredients and cooking methods from different gastronomies and world cultures (which, at first glance, might seem incompatible!), fusion cuisine enjoyed its heyday in the late 70s.
In France, fusion cuisine was pioneered by top chefs such asAlain Senderens and Michel Guérard, two standard-bearers of nouvelle cuisine. Allegedly outdated over the last 15 years, this cuisine of improvisation, inventiveness and experimentation has made a comeback in Paris restaurants.
Nowadays, it's not surprising to find tables in the streets of the capital combining French and Japanese, French and Korean flavors, techniques and products; but also Italian-Japanese, Italian-Tunisian, Indo-Lebanese or even Japanese-Peruvian restaurants, the famous Nikkei cuisine born of the massive immigration of Japanese to Peru at the end of the 19th century.
Would you like to broaden your horizons and discover these surprising and delicious combinations? Here are the best addresses for fusion restaurants in Paris!
