In constant motion, the Parisian culinary scene has more than one trick up its sleeve to make gourmets dream. And even more so when it comes to staging (un)anticipated collaborations, hosting chef residencies in the capital's restaurants, or opening ephemeral restaurants and food pop-ups that follow trends and seasons.

So, to keep abreast of the latest trends in Parisian cuisine, follow the guide. Here you'll find the ephemeral restaurants currently open, residencies and collaborations to keep an eye on, and food pop-ups not to be missed under any circumstances!
