Hi Chris. I guess I’d recommend… reading the article? Hope you all have a wonderful time together!
Taking my wife to Paris for her Birthday and staying in St Germain ((Le Placide Hotel). Flying our daughter in as a surprise but need a good couple of places to eat. Any recommendations would be great. Thanks in advance.
Chris
Hi Forrest! I had a nice solo meal at the bar there in May. Always super-friendly service and excellent wine.
Has anyone been to La Boissonerie lately ? And Meg, can you still recommend it after all of theses years? Thanks Forrest
Hi Rex! I’ve never seen Bouillabaisse in Saint-Germain (it’s hard to find in Paris), but there’s an outstanding version at Chez Michel near the Gare du Nord.
Hello-Can you recommend a restaurant serving good bouillabaisse in or around St. Germaine? If not St. Germaine, then anywhere in Paris.
Cheers
Hi Mary! I like Kitchen Ter(re) for the most part. I think the dishes are interesting, and I crave the hearty pastas (made from alternative grains) in cooler weather. But there’s a serious lack of ambience, so I prefer it for lunch when the atmosphere feels less important.
What’s your opinion of Kitchen Ter(ere)? Thanks.
In 2009 my wife and I ‘discovered’ a piano bar in St. Germaine. No peanuts and potato chips with our glasses of wine. We were given small bowls of escargot. There was a singer with an operatic voice. We loved it. Yet when we returned five years later we couldn’t remember where it was located (or what it was called). We’re returning to Paris in February and would love to find this piano bar. Does my description sound familiar to anyone.
I haven’t, but am happy for the tip – thank you!
Hello! have you tried Mordu in St Germain also? I heard the food is delicious and there is an extended wine list of natural wines..
