This is TASCHEN's Paris, New York, London, and Berlin
travel guide box set. Following the smashing success of
our city travel guide series, TASCHEN brings you the
entire collection in a box set of 12 volumes. Each city
- Paris, New York, London, and Berlin-is covered in
three separate volumes for hotels, restaurants, and
shops. These guides are just as stylish as the
originals, now easier to slip in your pocket while you
explore! Highlights: London: Number Sixteen, a chic
South Kensington hotel in a beautiful Victorian
townhouse with romantic gardens, celebrity chef Jamie
Oliver's restaurant and social project, Fifteen, where
teenagers cook the meals, and Dover Street Market, the
multi-floor concept store founded in 2004 by Comme des
Garcons. New York: the Maritime Hotel, a former sailors'
dorm, now Chelsea's coolest hotel, the Waverly Inn,
''Vanity Fair'' editor Graydon Carter's exclusive salon
for the glitterati, and where to buy New York's best
cheesecake. Paris: Laduree, the best macaroons in the
city, the ultra-luxurious Ritz hotel on elegant Place
Vendome, and Colette fashion concept store.Berlin: hip
nightspot Green Door, where one rings the doorbell to
gain entrance, oriental delight at Edd's, the best Thai
restaurant in Berlin (perhaps Germany), and experimental
store Bless, ''publicizing artistic values through
products''. |
