Paris at the First Lodges - Ducasse sur Seine Lunch Cruise

Excellent experience, ideal setting and cuisine that lives up to the promise. How about 5*? Simply because given the standing of the place I thought it was a shame not to be part of the tables that were offered coffee at the end of the meal. I also asked for a red worm to accompany my dish and I never had it. So certainly I could have called a waiter but considering the standing I felt I didn’t have to. However, this did not spoil our experience.

The restaurant is set on a beautiful glass boat, offers an absolutely unforgettable experience. Between discovering high-level French gastronomy and cruising through the most emblematic bridges of Paris, everything is brought together for a magical moment. The dishes are very fine, with a real signature of the chef on each plate. The flavors are fair, balanced, and highlight the best French local products. As for wines, the selection is remarkable, with prestigious references such as Pierre Peters, Barons de Rothschild, Cristal or Dom Pérignon. There is also a great selection of French wines from different regions, perfect to accompany every step of the meal. Mood on the boat is chic and relaxed, with an exceptional panoramic view of Paris along the way. And if you’re lucky enough to take this fair weather cruise, don’t miss going up to the roof terrace to enjoy a coffee with a breathtaking view of the Eiffel Tower – a real moment of grace. ???? Small tip: this experience comes at a cost (count about €400 for two people), but if you are a lover of French gastronomy and want to have an exceptional dinner on the water, it is well worth it. A moment suspended in time, which I highly recommend to those who want to discover Paris differently, between refinement, flavors, and elegance

It could have been a very nice experience... The food is good, the Service nice but unfortunately we had a table in the middle of the boat ... opposite the entrance ... the only place where there is no sun breeze above the windows. As soon as we arrived it was incredible heat. It was July 26th .. a waiter offered to open a door nearby to create a draft but did not do so. As soon as our installation one of the two couples installed near us was able to change tables. We had lunch with far too high a temperature which ruined the experience for all three of us. Big disappointment. Even if the dishes were very good lunch in such conditions has no point!
