If perhaps you’ve had your fill of duck confit and boeuf bourguignon whilst in Paris, consider making a reservation at Casa Tua restaurant at the picturesque J.K. Place Paris for a striking change of pace. The pristine five-star boutique hotel is not only a stone’s throw from the Musée d'Orsay and The Louvre Museum, but home to a world-class Italian fare and warm refined hospitality that’s as authentically Italian as it gets.
Once you enter the property, you’ll be whisked away to the elegant eatery, which boasts chic oversized black-and-white checkerboard flooring, sumptuous velvet seating, exquisite art, and clean yet modern touches at every turn. There’s eye-catching coffee table books neatly stacked in the center of the dining room for a hospitable touch, and a handful of classic Olivieri 1882 panettones lining the tabletops — a beloved sweet treat of the Italian co-founder Ori Kafri.
As for the world-class gastronomic experience, expect to feast on tantalizing classic starters like mouthwatering tuna tartare and comforting burrata salad; as well as unexpected delights like the pumpkin flan and polenta chips or artichoke veloute garnished with pine nuts and a poached egg. The primi piatti dishes are what Italian dreams are made of: cozy helpings of creamy mushroom risotto, perfectly al dente spaghetti punctuated with generous morsels of briney mussels; and of course, Roman classic cacio e pepe pasta for a simple yet savory respite before indulging in the main course.
Sink your teeth into the perfectly charred grilled octopus adorned with colorful mini vegetables and ‘Nduja foam; and save room to enjoy other tantalizing crowd pleasers like the Milanese veal or tender branzino filet topped off with a playful yet potent anchovy foam. Every dish is beautifully presented in European portions to keep your tastebuds satisfied and ready for the next; which is key when each course somehow perfectly builds open the last. Finally, indulge in the signature tiramisu or warm tarte tatin to truly sweeten the overall dining experience and retire to the contemporary Lounge Bar for a well-deserved nightcap.
J.K Place Paris opened in 2020 and continues to cater to the jetset elite, who may be familiar with its other properties in Rome, Capri, and Milan. As for its Paris location, the exceptional hotel, which is located in the 7th arrondissement along the Left Bank parallel to the Seine, offers 29 individually-designed guest rooms (complete with handmade Italian beds, mother of pearl cabinets, contemporary wood fireplaces, and glorious walk-in closets), and also offers world-class amenities like an indoor heated pool, sauna, steam bath, gym, and newly opened spa with elite scientific skincare brand Noble Panacea.
