Exclusive | Martha Stewart dishes on fave Paris restaurants and Snoop Dogg’s hotel hotplate at the Libertine show

Snoop Dogg said oh hell nah to weird French food and brought a personal chef to the Olympics last month.

“He’s very careful,” NBC co-host at the Games Martha Stewart told Alexa before the Libertine fashion show at the Elizabeth Street Garden. “He has a cook who travels with him and makes his chicken and rice. They have a hot plate [in the hotel room].

“He’s a fussy man!” she added with a grin.

In an NBC Sports video released during the Games, Snoop famously refused to eat escargot – a chewy French delicacy consisting snails drenched in butter and garlic – at Le Cinq, a swanky three-Michelin star restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel George V. In fact, when Stewart tried to force him to put the mollusk in his mouth, he flung it on the floor and stuffed a piece of bread in his mouth instead. 

”You’re such a wimp!” exclaimed the domestic goddess as he laughed.

Stewart, who is an adventurous eater, enjoyed a number of sumptuous meals while in Paris. 

“La Renommée was very delicious,” she said. “That was recommended by Daniel Boulud. It was a very good restaurant.”

She also enjoyed Le Voltaire, a legacy Left Bank brasserie on the Seine.

Dressed in head-to-toe Colefax-print Libertine, Stewart perched front row at the show in Nolita’s romantic Elizabeth Street Garden, next to shorts-wearing designer Thom Browne. 

“It’s very beautiful and right for the garden,” she observed, referring to her outfit’s lush botanical pattern. “I discovered these Slim Keith blouses, pants and the jacket, and have them in like five colors.”

For spring 2025, co-founder and creative director Johnson Hartig’s exuberant prints included a colorful cityscape, a coral motif, an supersized rose design and a mini-floral, used to make everything from slinky evening gowns and caftans to tailored coats.  

You could easily picture Snoop swagging one of the men’s jackets – as long as it doesn’t have snails on it.
