Want to go higher? Here is the ideal Parisian spot to draw memories. Acte II (formerly Au_Top) is this secret rooftop that is lived all year long and that unveils a unique 360° panorama in the center of Paris. A surprising address that can be reached through what looks like a garage door. Yes, to discover this gourmet restaurant signed Jean Philippe Nikoghossian, you must have an adventurous soul.

After having crossed a whole course with the paces of a treasure hunt, passing in particular behind a garbage room to discover a hidden elevator, before going along an astonishing gallery of ice creams and magnums, here is that this so mysterious address finally reveals itself to us.

This address is already at the top of Paris and the view it offers will not inspire us any other adjectives. Who would have thought that in the center of the capital, a place so well hidden could reveal such a fascinating panorama? It is almost as if you were in a garden suspended in the air. At dusk, you can even admire the sky with its shimmering colors before Paris becomes the City of Light. If in summer, you can take advantage of it to sunbathe, in winter, the roof closes: thus, this address is not only reserved for the beautiful days!

As for the menu, it is the chef Masahide Ikuta who is in charge. He invites us to taste a Japanese gastronomy above the Parisian roofs. The menu proposes usmeats and fishes grilled in the wood fire and recipes which put in the honor the flavors proper to the country of the rising sun. What a change of scenery while enjoying this unique view over the rooftops of Paris.
