...soporific at times, but to her fans she's making rich, dreamy music that takes its time. For the first few albums, her beautiful melodies were matched at times by the kind of fragile, whispery voice that has become a French tradition in the style of Isabelle Adjani, Jane Birkin and her daughter Charlotte Gainsbourg. But over the last couple of years, Keren Ann's has evolved into more expressive, fuller and more melodic voice. She says it's because she's now writing in keys she's more comfortable singing in, not to mention all that journeyman time doing...

...Montaigne and Rue François I. The restaurant that sprawls over most of the Hôtel Costes' lobby on Rue St.-Honoré is where you eat if you're French and you're famous, period. Yves Saint Laurent dines in the atrium twice a week. Isabelle Adjani, Catherine Deneuve and Johnny Hallyday are regulars. So are John Malkovich and Johnny Depp. The Costes know them all and feed them steamed vegetables (€20), carrot juice (€8) and roast shrimp with Thai herbs (€28).
