In Paris, it can be a struggle to find a dinner venue on Sunday nights…thankfully there’s Clamato. This oyster bar is opened by Bertrand Grébaut of Septime, which, being one of the hottest neobistros in Paris, is practically impossible to book especially after it got on Pellegrino’s list of The World’s 50 Best Restaurants. Clamato, just next door, has a no-reservation policy, and its chill atmosphere is just what we needed on a Sunday evening.

The decor – generous use of natural wood and metal surfaces in combination with warm diffused lighting – is exactly the type I adore, and the charming waiters and waitresses were friendly to just the right degree. Then I took a look at the menu. Carte blanche for €55 – ah, so it’s going to be another one of those dinners where I don’t have to worry about what to order. Perfect.
