· JG has two problems: much of Paris closes down in August, so dining options are diminished, and few brasseries have the sort of terrace-with-view she's probably hoping for (the Brasserie de l'Isle St Louis does, but it'll be shut). Would a restaurant-with-view do? If money is no object, the Jules Verne on the Tour Eiffel (0033 1 4555 6144) is of course memorable, but a less financially onerous choice would be the terrace of Le Toupary, high up in the No 2 Samaritaine building (+1 4041 2929), with a view over the Seine and the roofs of Paris. The Institut du Monde Arabe (1 rue des Fossés-Saint-Bernard, +1 5310 1016) has a rooftop restaurant with terrace, where she could eat pretty good mezze while looking over the river to Sacré-Coeur.

· Brasserie Wepler (+1 4470 0750), in Place Clichy is fantastic, especially for seafood, the desserts are divine and the service is very polite and charming.

· There's only one answer... Bowfinger (7 rue de la Bastille +1 4272 8782). The beautiful decor and Parisian romance is matched by exquisite food.
