Le Pot au Lait – Paris (75005) en
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 that's why I'm not putting it in the 716 list. That being said, it's worth knowing, [...]
Le Braisenville – Paris (75009) en
A discovery: prefect lunch table d'hôte, nice setting and service just like it needs to be.
[...]
La Bolée – Paris (75005) en
A crêpe place that is open every day, and that's been there for the last 27 years. All of it without any bells or whistles 2 feet away from Sénat and Luco in little rue Servandoni.
The crêpes are good, even if there's nothing genius about them, th[...]
Bibimbap – Paris (75005) en
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, then to the burger, all things with "b"s pretty m[...]
Levant & Co – Paris (75005) en
A Turkish catering-shop-restaurant-cooking school- internet radio!
14 euros for a soup of the day and a main during the weekdays- if I understood everything completely, everything is made in-house, the welcome is warm ( it's a couple) and you'll get[...]
Gourmet – Paris (75009) en
Here's a video I really enjoyed. Saghir used to be the chef in a tiny pakistani shack that made amazing food in the 9th district. He's no longer there, the restaurant disapeared, and it's a big loss for that area. I had filmed this video with him[...]
L’Ami Jean – Paris (75007) en
For a long time now, people have been unanimous about this restaurant, it’s the place to go to when you’re on the left bank of Paris, and yet I avoided it, because it seemed too expensive to me.
But there’s actually table d’hôtes at 35 and at 42 at [...]
Al Karem – Paris (75009) en
This is a place I love because I think that Paris needs some spots like this. The new street food scene with some name dropping for every product has its clientele, but there there is no way it can resume the street food of Paris : I have always pref[...]
Chez Kim – Paris (75019) en
Un restaurant vietnamien très solide qui est là depuis longtemps et qui mérite qu'on le connaisse. Une vraie bonne petite table perchée sur le haut des Buttes Chaumont dans le quartier de la Mouzaïa.

Les vins de la Trottinette – Paris (75011) en
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 Tierras looking for a perfect balance between the Spanish Tempr[...]
Cité Universitaire’s Restaurant- Paris (75014) en
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 outside, the cafeteria is open for everyone so it’[...]
