Packed with updated information, it features at least a dozen essential new dining addresses since the last edition, as well as specialist shops, including the new Galleries Lafayette department store, hotels, museums, art galleries and nightlife venues both new and established, all presented with Laurence Phillips's trademark wit and charm.
