Le Jules Verne, Paris
Nothing says gastronomy quite like France. Said to derive from the Ancient Greeks, the term leaped into the dictionary thanks to one certain poem by French lawyer Joseph Berchoux in 1801 entitled “Gastronomie”.

Let the Champ de Mars, Champs Elysees and the glittering lights of the French capital twinkle you into a complete trance.
