PARIS — In the summer of 1998, this newspaper ran an article about a restaurant here. “The first rule of fashion is that if something is fashionable, it is doomed to become unfashionable, especially if it is fashionable with the fashion crowd,” the article read. But, it said, there was one exception: “Davé.”I wrote that article, and it turns out I was wrong. Davé (pronounced Dah-VAY), a Chinese restaurant on the Right Bank that for years — no, decades — was Fashion Central, eventually did fall out of fashion. So much so, that when Davé closed in February 2018, and its owner, Davé Cheung, retired, no one really noticed.
