Southwest (Pais Basque) Style Cuisine
Moderate - 
Executive Chef/Owner: Jacques and
Christiane Boudon
This outstanding and informal Parisian
bistro in the 7th Arrondissement offers a
varied and flavorful Pays Basque style
menu in very cozy and comfortable
surroundings. Popular with the business
crowd for lunch, it offers terrace dining
in the summer. There is a private dining
room for small groups. The Plat du Jour is
always a good selection, or try the Magret
de Canard, or the Volaille Champignons
followed by an excellent selection of
deserts to finish off the meal. Good
selection of Pays Basque wines as well as
the usual Bordeaux. The staff is
outstanding in their service and
suggestions. They open early (19h00 -7 PM)
to accommodate the tourist who seem unable
to adjust to the Parisian style of eating
later in the evening. The Parisians do not
start arriving until after 20h30 and stay
until closing. Dress casual, but try to
forgo the ball caps and shorts,
please.
Open for lunch and diner until 23h00 (11
PM). Open 7 days a week, but Closed
annually from 18 July through 18 August.

Executive Chef/Owner: Thierry Verola
This unique wine bar, extremely popular
with the local business crowd for lunch,
is located in a major shopping district on
the right bank. This is a casual dining
experience not to be missed. At noon
you're liable to find men in business
suits mixed with the shop keepers and
delivery men, standing four deep at the
bar. Although the decor is somewhat dated,
reminiscent of post-WW II, the atmosphere
is truly both relaxing and inviting. One
thing you'll notice when you first sit
down at the small tables lining the wall
is that the labels have been removed from
the wine bottles displayed above the bar.
"I'm not being paid to advertise" was the
response from Madam. Nonetheless, both the
wine and the food is worth a stop anytime
you're in the neighborhood shopping.
Open for lunch and diner until 23h00 (11
PM). Reservations not required in the main
area, but space is very limited. Private
dinning area upstairs.
