What our Inspectors say about J'aime by Jean-Michel Lorain
Enter this hotel restaurant and your world gets a little topsy-turvy, with a grand piano hanging from the ceiling and upside down chandeliers. But one bite of the creative French cuisine and all will be right again. Choose from one of the five, seven, or ten-course tasting menus to get the full experience. The restaurant and menu were conceived by renowned chef Jean-Michel Lorain - his daughter adds charm and one of his protégés runs the kitchen.
