Going to Paris with my wife in December - our 5th trip to Paris in our 41 years of marriage but the first time in the Winter. We arrive on her birthday.

Flights free with miles. Park Hyatt Paris Vendome also free. Last few trips we have passed on the fancy restaurants and just walked into restaurants, had a fine meal and a carafe of wine and it's always good and reasonable.

So I'm thinking of taking her the first night to La Jules Verne in the Eiffel Tower. Seems off the wall - could be $500+. But it's one night, her birthday and part of me says, what the hell. It's crazy but we can afford it.

Anyone ever been there? Is is that special or will I leave feeling ripped off? Appreciate any feedback.
