Food Scene

One of the best creperies in the city; often compared to Breizh Cafe in the Marais, but much more off the beaten path and filled with Parisians rather than tourists!

Main kitchen for the owner of Le Camion Qui Fume, the first major food truck success in Paris (run by a Californian, of course!). Definitely fills the craving for a good deli sandwich.

Really high quality restaurant, fixed menu, willing to take on some culinary risks. Expect to spend 50 euros just for the food, but definitely worth it if looking for a romantic night of gastronomy.

Standby of the wave of neobistros (along w/Le Verre Vole or Le Dauphin) that opened in Paris in the 2000s. Flawless food at not too exorbitant price. Supped next to Frederick Wiseman last time here.

A great place for a full on Sunday Brunch, or to grab a coffee and sit and read in their dining room mimicking an interior living room of a country home. Menu is also good, if a little pricey.

A rare roof top bar on the 9th floor of an atelier with immense room on top. Restaurant floor below. A Berlin vibe; open fire in the summers with views of Sacre Coeur, Pantheon, etc.

Essentials

Best boulangerie in the neighborhood. A bit of a walk, but definitely worth it for the Baguette Tradition and the Pain a Raisin

Our go to grocery store. We make a weekly trip here. Not a "trendy" bio store, but an active coop with active members who care about what they eat, where it comes, when it comes and how its made.
