Garcia’s work includes Hôtel Métropole in Monte Carlo, the Spice Market restaurant in New York, Hôtel Costes in Paris and dozens of others around the world owned by sultans and sheiks, royalty and even Garcia himself.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwHSqMuODDQeuVXXIG8kO-IhztGXleVg4mReyDeA4ERL080W6pS1EOXCejKs7Y9eMtQm-wNvClGL2utTklA6rWVX-cuiEgxkshaYXBX6Tz7VBx4eGG9XHTcfqmRofujY5UarEdJcYi4TU/s1600/letmat3%25281%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwHSqMuODDQeuVXXIG8kO-IhztGXleVg4mReyDeA4ERL080W6pS1EOXCejKs7Y9eMtQm-wNvClGL2utTklA6rWVX-cuiEgxkshaYXBX6Tz7VBx4eGG9XHTcfqmRofujY5UarEdJcYi4TU/s640/letmat3%25281%2529.jpg" width="522" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div>Several years ago, Garcia was quoted as saying that 50 million people ate at his restaurants and five million people slept at his hotels. These numbers have only grown since.<br /><br />At Matignon, Garcia has created a luxurious mix of eclectic and opulent, subdued and bold, elegant and funky. Matignon has no online presence at this time, so the only way to get to know it is to go in person. <i><b>Eric. J.R.
