Manuela’s opinion
Why go there?
For the exotic setting of the Makassar, a name inspired from South Indonesia, nestled in the heart of the very select Hotel Renaissance Paris Arc de Triomphe.
For its lounge atmosphere, its precious parquet-floor, its cosy couches decorated with red cushions, its illuminated bar and its terrace made of teak wood.
For the original dishes full of flavours, cooked by the chef Louis José Bangar, native of the Indian ocean. For the Makassar's unusual cocktails and its delicious brunches on sundays.
With who?
