Mandarin Oriental, Paris Opens its Delightful Garden for Summer Season
Providing one of the most charming green spaces within the city for guests and locals to dine, enjoy cocktails and socialize, the courtyard garden is now open daily from 11am-2am.

With new layout, furniture and the ability to host up to 100 guests, Mandarin Oriental, Paris’s landscaped garden provides an ideal location and space to enjoy dining menus from both Bar 8, the hotel’s intimate bar which serves an exclusive ‘Street Marx’ menu by Chef Thierry Marx, and Camélia, Mandarin Oriental, Paris’ all-day dining restaurant, with French cuisine that is influenced by Chef Marx’s love and knowledge of Asia.

Guests can experience delicious dishes within the garden from Camélia’s new summer menu which includes: ‘green asparagus with onion emulsion, watercress cream, french caviar’ as well as ‘roasted John Dory, green peas ‘à la Française’ with Colonnata bacon, mint infused jus’, or ‘roasted saddle of lamb, braised baby vegetables’. For dessert, pastries by Chef Pierre Mathieu include ‘Andalousie’ cake made of hazelnut/chocolate biscuit, cream of yuzu, hazelnut mousse or the ‘Etna’ cake made of almond streusel, almond/pistachio dacqoise, soft grapefruit centre, cream of pistachio. There is also a large selection of home-made ice cream bars incluing: strawberry and raspberry sorbet with wildberry coulis, or the 62% Venezuelan chocolate ice cream with caramel.

As well as outside seating for everyday dining, guests can reserve the beautifully designed bird-cage style ‘La Table du Jardin’, which was designed by Jouin-Manku and offers space to entertain six guests for a unique dining experience amongst the flowers and trees.

The garden also provides the perfect location for a drink with friends in the evening amongst the chicest of the Parisian set – choose from the hotel’s new wine selection of pink wines, from Baux de Provence Rosé to the famous Bandol Rosé, Château de Pibarnon that will be served in a spectacular Jeroboam. Alternatively enjoy one of the newly created cocktails specifically designed for hot summer days, such as ‘Summer Sour’ which is made up of: Champagne, grape fruit juice and Apérol alcohol, or the ‘Japanese Spritzer’, a cocktail made up of sake. A refreshing ice tea list will also be offered and ideal for hot summer days : peach, jasmine or mango.
