Chonbou

Situated where the 8th meets the 9th arrondissement, Chonbou combines a restaurant and wine shop in a sleek, modern setting. The menu focuses on sophisticated seasonal plates, with inventive starters like cromesquis of pig's foot and marinated swordfish with kaki, followed by reimagined classics such as tender maigre with black rice and kale, or crisp duck breast with quince and chestnuts.

Wine is central: Chonbou’s cellar offers choices from independent growers and celebrated domains, encouraging diners to explore pairings that complement both subtle and bold flavors on the plate. The space is warm and luminous, with attentive service and a relaxed yet polished ambiance. The restaurant is well-suited to business lunches, gatherings among friends, or a pre-theatre meal, distinguished by precise cooking and a wine list made for discovery.
