Paris Fashion Week is arguably the most glamorous of the four international fashion events. From 28th February until 8th March, celebrities, designers, bloggers, buyers and PR people from all around the world are in town to attend exclusive catwalk shows and presentations.

While you may think that most of the action and fun is in the show spaces and afterparties, the restaurants of the French capital offer equal excitement: just on a plate rather than a runway..

Here are our five must-try places:

Tondo

Tondo - Filippo L'Astorina - The Upcoming

Where: 29 Rue de Cotte, 12th arrondissement

Why: Elegant bristronomie with Asian touches from Italian chef Simone Tondo

Opening hours:  12:30–2pm, 7:30–10pm, closed Sun/Mon and Tue/Wed at lunch

Mokonuts

Mokonuts - Paris

Where: 5 Rue Saint-Bernard, 11th arrondissement
