In the same spot as Le Colvert, a restaurant that never really took off, Colvert (sans “le”) has reopened with a new look and a new (Top) chef. Arnaud Baptiste participated in the 2021 season of French Top Chef and his food is, accordingly, wildly creative and over-sauced. But overall, this is a solid option for Saint-Germain – especially since Colvert is open every day of the week.

IN OTHER WORDS
- Michelin Guide (2023) “Revealed by the French Top Chef TV show, Arnaud Baptiste and his flamboyant moustache and numerous tattoos, is something of a media darling. He has set up shop in a vintage street corner bistro (banquettes, bistro chairs, tightly packed tables, bare stone walls, cement tiled floor and a counter which now serves standing customers) in the somewhat touristy, but nonetheless picturesque 6th district of Paris. Arnaud happily crafts market-fresh, bistronomic fare. The seasonal menu is suitably concise and hits the spot every time: confit of cod, hollandaise sauce, courgettes and absinthe gel or figs, served roasted, raw and in pickles with a fig sorbet and ice cream.”
