With the launch of new luxury hotel “Le Grand Mazarin” in the heart of Paris, the “Boubalé” restaurant, helmed by Michelin-starred Israeli culinary wonder Assaf Granit, also opened its doors. “Boubalé” reinvents Eastern European cuisine, giving it a sexy, contemporary twist / By Liat Mofaz Milchan Boubalé: a heavenly hot spot of nostalgia and Parisian chic

The “Grand Mazarin Hotel” by French luxury hotel brand, Maison Pariente, was inaugurated last September in the heart of Paris’ Marais neighborhood. Adjacent to the hotel lobby, Michelin-starred Chef Assaf Granit’s new Parisian venture,”Boubalé”, was it too, launched that same day. Granit earned his Michelin star for his other Parisian eatery, “Shabur”. The interior design of the hotel is

by Swedish-born London-based interior designer Martin Brudnitzky, who took his inspiration from the Parisian literary salons of the 17 th century, creating an eclectic and colorful design, simultaneously projecting luxury and simplicity, coziness and chic. The hotel’s design spills over into the restaurant as well. Boubalé is a riot of colors, textures, and materials that project exceptional

warmth and coziness, with hand crafted wooden chairs, elegantly hand-painted flower decorations, crystal glassware and porcelain plates, tapestry-clad walls, and lace tablecloths. With the coziness of the atmosphere, the Eastern European menu and music playing in the background, for a second you could imagine you were having dinner at someone’s Eastern European grandmother’s house.
