PARIS - ROMANTIC RESTAURANTS
Alcazar
62 Rue Mazarine, Paris, 75006
Terence Conran`s (of the Conran Shop fame) bright, buzzing, and wonderfully stylish eateries have now conquered Paris with Alcazar. Set in the heart of stylish, arty St Germain on the Left Bank, Alcazar is a smart, trendsetting outpost of modern good taste. Colours are bright and bold and artworks are very cool. Great atmosphere with wonderful contemporary French cuisine, a reservation is absolutely essential for this cosmopolitan restaurant.
Wagon Bleu
7 Rue Boursault, Paris, 75017
Le Wagon Bleu is beautifully restored carriage from 1927, formerly part of the mythic Orient Express, now brought intact into the 21st century. The restaurant encompasses not only the carriage itself, which seats up to 58 for private dining, but also a Salon de Musique where you can enjoy jazz Thursday through Saturdays and a pub/bar with great brass spouts and charming, period decor. Tucked away in a quieter district of Paris and as a result away from the tourists, you get a feel for the true Parisian culinary experience. Luxury, elegance, mystery, dinner - a perfect evening

Pont des Arts, River Seine
The Pont des Arts is a very romantic pedestrian bridge that crosses the Seine River. With its wooden walkway it connects the Institute de France to the Louvre museum. Pop the question at night on this bridge with the Seine flowing beneath and Notre Dame lit up behind you.
L`Arc de Triomphe
This is one of the most famous monuments in Paris. From the roof of the Arch there are spectacular views of Paris.
And of course outside the Notre Dame Cathedral and atop the
Eiffel Tower (but get there early in the morning to avoid the crowds!)
ROME - ROMANTIC RESTAURANTS
Antica Pesa
18 Via Garibaldi, Rome, 00153
The Antica Pesa is one of the best restaurants in Rome, and the posse of Hollywood mega stars gracing its charming dining room is testament to this. Located off the tourist trail, this place will guarantee you a positive outcome - no matter what question you ask! The menu is a combination of regional traditional and innovative Italian. Dishes change with the seasons and on a daily basis, and include steamed shrimp with zucchini blossoms, ravioli stuffed with white truffles, thyme-crusted lamb, and basil sorbet with caramelized apples. Enjoy the international wine list and the buzz in the air.
Il Pagliaccio
129 Via dei Banchi Vecchi, Rome, 00186
The Mediterranean is the main inspiration in Il Pagliaccio which has a winning balance of elegance and casual warmth. Located between the Corso Vittorio Emanuele II and the Tiber, this area is charmingly characteristic of the not-so-heavily touristed areas of Rome. Enjoy Martelli pasta, broccoli, creamed borlotti beans and sliced sausages or baked John Dory fish with glazed vegetables along with a glass of white from the extensive and eclectic wine list. A wonderful dining experience is guaranteed.

VIENNA - ROMANTIC RESTAURANTS

Rasumofskygasse 2, Landstrasse
One of the most raved-about eateries in Austria, this recently relocated restaurant is the place to go for classic Viennese fine dining. The name means corner of Styria, and the food includes starters such as caviar-semolina dumpling with grilled goose liver, and mains of asparagus with pigeon or prime Styrian roast beef. The menu changes daily and the cellar includes more than 35,000 bottles.
Indochine 21
Stubenring 18
This is the place for a touch of elegant colonial style. The French/Vietnamese dishes of seafood, fish and meat with noodles are utterly delicious, but it is worth going for the whirring ceiling fans, rattan seating and potted palms alone. The bar and lounge area is the real show-stopper and the cocktails are a treat - wonderful place.
