During the loop it is possible to see the 330-meter-high monument, which is already illuminated, in addition to the magnificent view of the city thanks to the panoramic windows. Classical music playing in the background contributes to a peaceful atmosphere, which is no longer so when a pregnant Madeline (Kate Walsh) breaks her water.
The restaurant ends up in the background, where only some of the decorations can be noticed, such as the round marble tables. MAGG tried to find out the cost of a meal at this location. It’s called Le Jules Verne, it has a Michelin star, and it’s one of the four restaurants on the Eiffel Tower. Located on the second floor, 124 meters above the ground, it favors French cuisinedesigned by Chef Frédéric Anton, who holds not one, not two, but three Michelin stars.
With his creations, the chef wants to “offer an unforgettable gastronomic experience”, which is, at the same time, “a dialogue of taste with the Iron Lady”, the nickname that the French ascribe to the imposing tower. This restaurant is open every day.
Divided into three dining rooms, Le Jules Verne enforces a dress code of smart casual and, therefore, casual yet elegant (sportswear such as T-shirts, shorts, and sneakers are prohibited). At lunch, you can choose the tasting menu (like dinner) or the à la carte menu.
The latter costs 140 euros and is only available on weekdays. It has six options to choose from—two appetizers, two mains, and two desserts—like ravioli with mushrooms, spinach, and cheese, and scallops with cod caviar and vanilla ice cream on French toast.
The tasting menu can consist of five or seven courses. The smallest, starting at €215, includes crab flavored with grapefruit and burrata, scallops marinated in thin slices with lemon, sea urchin and cider cream, cod cooked with olive powder and sautéed capers, poached poultry with black truffle and yellow wine and a hot chocolate soufflé, with ice cream. Cocoa and crunchy.
The menu from 255 euros also includes the preparation of lobster in ravioli with Parmesan cream, delicate beetroot jelly, poached pear with sorbet and ginger beer. Both menus can be paired with wine for a Parisian-like toast.
