UNIQUE IN THE WORLD: the extraordinary architecture of the building designed by Frank Gehry.

Inside the huge Walt Disney Concert Hall – a steel complex of venues at the heart of Los Angeles - the renowned German chef Joachim Splichal has created one of the city's most prized tables. An elegant restaurant with a pure and modern decor, Californian cuisine is infused with European influences. The trademark of Patina is fresh seasonal products highlighted by sophisticated presentations. The flavors are distinct in each dish, sweet or salty, but are always magnified out by herbs, exotic spices or bursts of acidity such as in the grilled Scottish salmon with baby artichokes and blood orange, or the Mediterranean loup de mer with minestrone and pesto croutons. The caviar guéridon and the variety of cheeses are two other reasons to visit this prestigious address.

Children welcome from 5 years

Leisure programs at Patina: group cooking classes for 4 to 8 people.

Unique in the world: the suites and rooms are named in honour of America’s Culinary Pioneers.

“When I was younger, I wanted to be an actor,” remembers Patrick O’Connell. But a love of cooking would send this dream off course. But no regrets: “A restaurant is a real living theatre, where I can play out various roles”. As the chef and owner of The Inn at Little Washington, Patrick is actor, director and producer of the show which runs every day in his dining room. His scripted menus put the spotlight on his Refined American Cuisine, such as Medallions of Rabbit Loin Wrapped in House Cured Pancetta Surrounding a Lilliputian Rabbit Rib Roast Resting on a Pillow of Pea Purée. Just an hour’s drive from Washington DC, this sumptuous hotel nestled at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains is a great retreat with its princely suites and opulent lounges hung with 18th century paintings and tapestries.

UNIQUE IN THE WORLD: French colonial style, reminiscent of plantation houses.

True idleness means getting up at 6am so you have more time to do nothing”, wrote Tristan Bernard.

Your refuge: one of the fifteen colonial-style villa suites overlooking the sea.

The same splendor is carried over into the meals in the gourmet restaurant Le Gaïac where Chef Stéphane Mazières skillfully enhances the flavors.
