Le Chateaubriand boasts food by Inaki Aizpitarte, a smooth marble design by Rem Koolhaas, and a great selection of affordable vins naturels.
Expertly mixed cocktails and natural wines coexist peacefully at this low-key, über-cool bar à manger.
An Izakaya joint, serving small plates, Japanese beer and cocktails, in the heart of the touristville.
The kitchen talent at this new wine bar comes from Spring and Le Verre Volé, and the small plates feel like a hybrid between the two. They range from the standard rillettes, saucisse, and now-obligatory burrata to more light and creative fare, based on great products from the likes of Terroirs d’Avenir and Joël Thiébault. The vibe is relaxed, the prices are right, and the wines, as if you had to ask, are natural. Open until 2 a.m. most nights.
We don’t expect to be this wine bar to be any less trafficked than its mother ship Frenchie, just across the street. But if you want a taste of Gregory Marchand’s cooking without the challenge of scoring a reservation there, this is where to go. Smallish plates (most priced from 7-11€) include a house-made terrine with pistachios, melt-in-your-mouth hams, plus dishes that bear Marchand’s colorful market signature: A salad of tomatoes and cherries, burrata with golden olive oil and a bright green smush of minty peas, watermelon with feves and ricotta salata, delicate smoked fish, all subject to change with the season, of course. The border-crossing wine list is fun and reasonably priced, with a hefty handful of sub-25€ bottles.
Another day, another cave à manger, this one run by the team behind Le Miroir, the bistro just across the street. There’s charcuterie, cheese, radishes and butter, a plat du jour or two… all good excuses to order another bottle from the stacks.
This little Italian épicerie-à-manger, run by the former sommelier at ‘Rino, has four tables — two in and two out — where you can eat surrounded by exquisite spices, olive oils, stacks of wine, and a touch of flea market nostalgia.Open from 10 am to 11 pm every day but Sunday, when they close at 2 pm, and Monday, with an 8:30 pm closure.
Once upon a time, Olivier Magny ran wine tastings and classes out of his own apartment. Now he’s opened a vast, slick wine bar near Les Halles with a list of about 500 bottles and 40 glass pours.
Entering Le Tombé du Ciel feels a little like walking into the home of that guy you know who has always talked about converting his basement or garage into a bar.
A salade landaise served as a spring roll, mini croissants with truffles and ham, sardine rillettes, crisp polenta with smoked duck: This new address from Julien Duboué of Afaria serves up a lengthy list of creative tapas for gourmand grazing.
