McClure's Spicy Pickles: anyone know what type of pepper?

Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris: any recommendations?

I'm tossing up between Taillevent (old-school French, recently demoted to 2 stars), or Le Jules Verne ( Alain Ducasse, Eiffel Tower, view for days). Has anyone been, or know anyone who's been to either of these, or have any other recommendations for me? "
