Spend an evening in a volcano – it’s possible! This Tuesday, May 20, a new restaurant, atypical to say the least, opens its doors and promises to set the web alight. Is the explosion also taking place in the plates on the savory side? Quite possibly! Hot spot alert for this new immersive restaurant, which takes you to the heart of an erupting volcano…
After the seabed, the Amazon jungle and outer space… volcanic immersion!
Hot off the press! In France, Ephemera has undoubtedly found a recipe for success with its immersive restaurant concept. In Paris, lovers of atypical experiences can dine at Under the Sea, Stellar or Jungle Palace. Respectively, Parisians can dine in the heart of these spectacularly decorated establishments, promising immersion in the ocean depths, space and the jungle. Building on these successes, Ephemera has gone one step further, opening its immersive restaurant in Angers. At the heart of Wonder Woods, gourmets can enjoy an almost unreal gastronomic experience, in the midst of an enchanted forest. But four wildly successful restaurants weren’t enough for the ambitious Ephemera, which is back at it again, presenting its latest offering. This time, the Group sets out to conquer the city of Lille. For once, the concept is crazy, and that’s why we now recommend it to Parisians…
Just 2 hours from Paris, a new restaurant that’s all fire and brimstone!
A 2-hour journey, dear Parisians, is how long it will take you to get to Magmatic, Ephemera’s new immersive eatery, which opened its doors this Tuesday, May 20, 2025. Every evening, the ground will tremble to reveal a mysterious subterranean landscape, where lava reigns supreme. In this scarlet ambience, dinner becomes an experience that brings all the senses to life. In this atmosphere of steam, fire and rock, dinner becomes an adventure. The expedition begins with the aperitif, with elixirs that promise to be incandescent. The Volcania Mule cocktail on the menu is particularly appealing, and promises to be a show in itself.
The à la carte menu features caliente starters in keeping with the restaurant’s theme. Such is the case with the beef tataki served on a hot stone, or the spicy beef dumplings. The same goes for the main courses, with teriyaki salmon also served on a hot stone. There’s also a good welsh from Lille, spicy chicken satay skewers, and several vege’ options. To complete the experience, Magmatic offers an immersive menu at 42 euros, for the ultimate dining experience. With this formula, starter, main course and dessert are served on a hot volcanic stone, for total immersion. So, are you convinced by the concept? We don’t know about you, but we at Paris Secret think that eating in the heart of a volcano is something you should do at least once in your life!
