Bel Canto - Neuilly

Bel Canto restaurant in Neuilly just north of Paris' Bois de Boulogne has music on the menu. The waiters are also students from the world-famous Paris Conservatoire and several times each evening they burst into song, performing the arias you adore from Puccini, Verdi, Mozart and more. You may spot the next Pavarotti, who knows? The dining room in the former mansion has been designed like a small theatre, with gleaming grand piano set centre stage beneath a crystal chandelier with white-linened tables arrange on two levels for maximum visibility. (NB This also makes Bel Canto Neuilly a superb spot for corporate entertaining, banquets and presentations.) The three-course, seasonally-changing Lyric Menu offers dishes like pressed crabmeat with saffron, crunchy cabbage and ricotta, traditional beef fillet a la plancha with gratin potatoes and pannacotta with honey and lavender. Mostly-Italian wine list.
