Wood-fired cuisine restaurant in Paris: LAVA, the art of embers and grilling in the Latin Quarter
In Paris, few restaurants make cooking over an open fire their true signature. Between those who use it occasionally and those who use it as a marketing gimmick, finding a true mastery of the embers is a challenge.
