LEGO just revealed the latest in the LEGO Modular Buildings series, the #10243 LEGO Parisian Restaurant. This is the 9th building in the LEGO Modular Series, and one of the most interesting ones – at least in my opinion. Below is the official description, pictures, and the LEGO designer-video, showing you all the details. So let’s take a look! 🙂

#10243 LEGO MODULAR PARISIAN RESTAURANT: Have an unforgettable evening at the amazing Parisian Restaurant! It’s very busy in the Parisian Restaurant. As a scooter zips by, inside the waiter rushes between the tables as the nervous young man gets ready to propose with the ring! It’s just as hectic behind the scenes, with the chef busily preparing the food. This beautifully detailed building is the setting for so many stories and is a great addition to the modular building series. The Parisian Restaurant has a fully-stocked, blue and white tiled kitchen with tableware as well as a cozy apartment with pull-down bed, kitchenette and fireplace. On the top floor is the artist’s room with a studio that includes a cast iron heater, easel, paintbrush and two works of art by the aspiring artist. Outside, stairs lead down to the roof terrace lined with hanging lanterns and flowers where the diners eat alfresco-style. This amazing Parisian Restaurant model even includes a facade with croissants, clams and feather details that recapture the feel of Paris.
