 Fromage galore... |
45 Avenue Ledru Rollin Paris 75012 France +33 1 4343 3438 |
This simple bistro is located close to the Gare de Lyon station and serves a wide array of cheese and wine. Go for the set menu that offers great French food at an affordable price or order a Terrine for starters and try the Veal Scaloppini for the main course. Don't miss out on the all-you-can-eat French cheese platter. Just point at the type you fancy and the cheese will be served. For those with a sweet tooth, go for the melting hot fudge with dark chocolate ice cream. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Buzzing Bihan |
4 rue de Bercy Metro Dugommier Paris 75012 France +33 14 019 0995 |
Located at the Bercy, wine trading area of the city until the seventies, the step-down entranced Bihan Cafe sits near a very attractive new park. Bihan Guillaume took over the cafe in 2000 and took it to success. The food is average compared to the service but late at night when the owner tangos along with the waiters, everything else can be put on hold. One cannot miss the amusing enthroned stone pig statue that welcomes you into the cafe. Don't forget to try the Herring fillets, possibly the meatiest ones in Paris. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Authentic Country Raclette in Paris |
51 rue de Montreuil Paris 75011 France +33 01 43 70 28 27 |
With so many tourist traps offering raclette, La Serpent qui Danse stands out, serving the traditional Savoyard dish properly. La Serpent Qui Danse seats just forty-two people, serving an ever-changing menu of specials. What really matters, though, is the raclette cheese, served on the traditional apparatus that melts the huge wedge just fast enough for diners to scrape it onto plates of unlimited potatoes, a choice of meat plates (or a vegetarian option), and bread, with a simple side of green salad. It helps that it's a deal: just 18 euros for the meal before wine. - Emily Monaco Review © 2007, Wcities |

Robuchon's disciple, Didier Maillet, lets his menu follow the whim of the seasons, offering, for instance, game during the hunting period. The décor is handsome, the restaurant is quiet and businessmen often come here to escape their otherwise hectic existences. The wine list is excellent—viognier from the Domaine Gramenon.
