For a Day in Paris
“I love to see the sculp-
tures at the Musée
Rodin (musee-rodin.fr),
then go out with my
husband, Oddur, at
the restaurant Rech
(restaurant-rech.fr).
It has the best seafood
and art-deco décor.”
THORISSON’S TIPS
ON FRANCE
For Chic Finds
“Palais Royal in Paris is a
must. Stores like Didier
Ludot La Petite Robe
Noire are where I seek
out vintage black dresses
in the style of Grace
Kelly or Ava Gardner.”
For a Fresh Start
“The first thing I do when
I arrive at any hotel
is hang up my dresses,
take a quick bath, and
have a drink in the bar.
Then I’m off to explore.”
For an Escape
“We like to visit the city
of Arles and book a
room at the Hôtel Nord-
Pinus. It’s full of stories
from the past—Ernest
Hemingway and Maria
Callas stayed there!”
For Traveling With
Children
“We have always taken
our kids everywhere.
Before we leave, I buy
fun activity books for
each child and encour-
age them to carry a
bag with a notebook
and pens to draw.”
A festive twist
on a classic:
roast chicken
with chestnuts
and cabbage.
