After conquering our taste buds with the Segreto, Rure strikes a new blow by opening Maddalena. Located in the heart of the Marais in Paris, this new ephemeral cocktail bar aims to offer a contemporary vision of the Parisian night.
Since December 21, a new cocktail bar a pris possession du Marais at Paris. Her name ? Maddalena. Behind this new establishment, we find the company In the countryside, already at the origin of Secret, this ephemeral terrace hidden on the side of the Opera, but also several Parisian evenings, such as Mrs and Mr Rure. This time, the fine team led by Mathieu Rutigliano has chosen to set up in the Marais district to unveil this new ephemeral place which is likely to arouse the curiosity of many Parisians until May 31.
It must be said that the Maddalena is more than just a cocktail bar. Located in a former art gallery with an area of 500 m², the place has been completely redesigned by the architect Gaelle Valin. There is now a circular stage and one neutral decor, but also works of art making visitors experience a new and original experience.
To impress you, the artistic director of the place has bet on luminous works. They are the ones who make life Maddalena. Without them, the place is plunged into complete darkness. Thumbs up for the installation”Incandescences” from Mathias Bensimon of the Beaux-Arts in Paris. Subsequently exhibited in Tokyo, Japan, this very beautiful work (oil painting on Plexiglas) is to be admired until May 1 at the Maddalena. Not far away, we also discover the works of Beatrice Bissara and Romain Lalire, two visual artists usually exhibited in galleries.
It is therefore in this artistic atmosphere expressed at all levels as one can sip any of the cocktails offered a la carte. Let yourself be tempted, for example, by the tasty “Kokou Fizz“based on gin, fresh lemon, matcha syrup, egg white and sparkling water, or the “Last Word“composed of gin, green chartreuse, luxardo maraschino and fresh lime, without forgetting the fruitiness”Brumble” (gin, fresh lemon, sugar syrup and blackberry).
Otherwise, prefer the classics and essentials “Old Cuban“, “Old square” and “Spritz“.
To accompany these clever beverages, make way for tasty Mediterranean dishes to share signed by the chef of In the countryside. On the menu ? A nice plate oforganic egg mayonnaise, accompanied by puffed rice, pickles, nori seaweed and aromatic plants, but also chickpea hummus or even truffled ham from Metzger.
Also discover the succulent honey roasted feta, with its arugula and roasted nuts or the ultra gourmet grill cheese (sandwich with cheese and truffled butter). Carnivores will salivate when they see the arrival of the 8h confit beef chuck, with its confit of red cabbage and meat juice, while lovers of distant flavors will opt for the delicious cod acras and their sweet and sour sauce.
