Substance is a modern-cuisine restaurant at 18 rue de Chaillot in Paris's 16th arrondissement. [1]

Overview

In this contemporary restaurant in one of Paris's fine neighborhoods, the tandem of Aurora Storari and Flavio Lucarini composes a living, current cuisine sprinkled with Italian touches, favoring short supply chains and evolving with the seasons.
