From its remarkable wine cellar to its intimate rooms and wild fashion-show after-parties, the story of Lapérouse is endlessly fascinating, as recounted by multi-award-winning writer Frédéric Beigbeder. In Lapérouse: A Parisian Icon Since 1766, the ghosts of great artists meet the icons of today. It is never too late for a party. It is always a night to remember.

Harper ★★★★★

Didn't expect the after-party stories to be the best part, but the wild fashion-show chapters had me laughing out loud. Frédéric's writing makes the intimate rooms feel like you're actually there.

Brian E. ★★★★★

The chapter on the wine cellar alone is worth the price—I had no idea a restaurant could hold that much history underground. Frédéric's writing keeps it lively rather than dry, and the after-party stories are as wild as promised.

Ella W. ★★★★★

I picked this up before a trip to Paris and ended up reading the after-party stories in one sitting — the fashion-show tales are wild. Frédéric's writing moves fast, and the old photos of the rooms made me want to book a table.
