Modern French-inspired McDonald’s arrives in New York

Now, the fries aren’t the only French thing on the menu.

A modern McDonald’s concept has arrived in New York via Europe, and it’s giving the Golden Arches a sexy polish.

The restaurant is the first of its kind in the US, and features several new foods with a Parisian twist: croissants, chocolatines and raspberry pastries.

Inside the Chelsea fast food joint (809 6th Avenue), the look, designed by France’s Patrick Norguet, is missing the mustard yellow and ketchup red the iconic chain is know for. Instead, the style is metallic, open and simple.

There is a wall lined with self-service touch screens for choosing grub, but less adventurous customers can still order from a traditional salesperson at the counter.

There’s even a kindly “concierge” to greet flummoxed Big Mac fans at the door.

On Wednesday afternoon, the restaurant was occupied by about 20 patrons. And McDonalds customers who had discovered the brand new location were saying “Ooh, La La!”

“It’s beautiful,” said Barış Can Bahtiyaroğulları, a 24-year-old student. “I will be back, of course. My school is close to here, so this is the best place to come at break time.”

However, while the restaurant is French-inspired, escargots, foie gras and creme brulee are, thankfully, not on offer.
