Resto 12, Jardin d’Hiver, Le Crillon
Anniversaries don't get much better than supping champagne at Le Crillon.
Resto 13, Toraya, Paris

Resto 5 Pho Odessa, Paris
The RTJ was fine but next time I'm in Versailles I'll try their rivals, The Maharajah, across the road. Oh, and make sure I know where Versailles are actually playing.
