Delicious Chinese cuisine from the Hunan region, 2 min. walk from Gare Saint-Lazare. Amazing spot, opened in may 2015. If you want some local tips, ask the young waitress. Summary Delicious Chinese cu[...]

Les Saveurs d’Abyssinie is a small Ethiopian restaurant opened in summer 2015. It is not the best one I have tried in Paris, but the cuisine is still very decent. And the owner has a very nice p[...]

An authentic Bánh mì (vietnamese sandwich) restaurant, it’s working like a charm, it’s fresh, happening, I only saw happiness there. Plus, the service was pretty friendly for such a busy p[...]

I’d been before, 9 years ago, and it feels like management has changed since then. “La complète” was really “goutue”, I wasn’t really thrilled with the service, and[...]

A discovery: prefect lunch table d’hôte, nice setting and service just like it needs to be.   Summary A discovery: prefect lunch table d’hôte, nice setting and service just like it ne[...]

A very good surprise, even more so because I was expecting a lazy Asian restaurant for boring palates, the bibimbap hysteria being in full throttle and a disappointment ( it then turned to the bo bun,[...]

Mauro, from the Sicilian tratorria “la Trottinette” now also sells wine. Yesterday he organized a meet and greet with wine producers. I tried two wines that I really enjoyed. This Dos Tier[...]

I was told it was a great deal/place. For the food, it’s good for a cafeteria, but the level isn’t as high I thought it would be. However, the setting in general is superb, especially when it’s nice o[...]

A real nice bistro with cool prices ( 16 euros appetizer-main at lunch, 23 appetizer-main-dessert) especially for the neighborhood. The design wont please everyone, the music in the background either,[...]

A real discovery that I owe to Claire Pichon from La Plus Petite Cuisine du Monde that talked about it in her restaurant selection for 716. A Thai restaurant run by “Laotiens” for the last 20 years, a[...]

Brasseries such as these are the exception even though they should be the norm. It’s really too bad, but since 716 is only interested in the positive, we’re happy to find places like these. Food made [...]
