BAM is a tiny, ultra-modern 28-seat restaurant, which provides innovative cuisine fused from French and Asian recipes. Using only market-fresh ingredients, three course lunch and dinners will cost you around 13 and 25 EUR, one of the best values you'll find for this type of quality fare.

This wine bistro's claim to fame is that it serves more wine per glass than any other bistro in Paris. There are over 50 varieties, so choice is not an issue here. This bistro serves a food platter that costs about 10-17 dollars. The ambience is all very chic with exposed wooden beams, Belle Époque posters and the necessary chalk board. Review © 2007, Wcities |

French luxury |
15 Rue Daunou Paris 75002 France +33 1 4703 4042 http://www.leceladon.com/ |
Bask in the luxury of this Michelin starred restaurant that offers exquisitely prepared and arranged French cuisine. The resplendent décor, complete with paintings and show pieces is pleasing to the eye. The food - La Poule Faisane, Le Turbot Sauvage and Soufflé Chaud au Chocolat Guanaja - is fit for a king, so expect to shell out serious money. The wines - Bordeaux, Bourgognes, Provences, and Rhones - add to the swank. It's definitely not a bad idea to venture here. Review © 2007, Wcities |

French Fusion |
17 Boulevard des Capucines Paris 75002 France +33 1 5343 8200 http://www.chezclement.com/fra... |
Once you've had your fill of shopping at Hermes and Christofle, head to this eatery to give your sore feet some rest and also to appease those hunger pangs. Tourists regularly frequent this restaurant because of its strategic location between the Opera and Church of the Madeleine. While the pastiche of mirrors and antiques create a contemporary ambience, the menu is essentially French with external influences. Clément Opéra, however, is a great pick for shell fish lovers. For desserts, the Caramelised Pancake Flambee is a favorite among patrons. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Excellent Cuisine at an Excellent Price |
42 Rue de Rochechouart Paris, Ile de France 75009 France +33 1 48 78 31 86 |
This warm neighborhood bistro provides one of the better prix fixes you can get in Paris. Not only is the food is tasty and the portions generous, but the fixed price menu (appetizer, main course, and dessert), is set at 15€. The fare is somewhat more creative than a typical bistro, with delights such as souris d'angeau confit (slow-cooked lamb shanks), and brochette de lotte et ananas (skewered monkfish with pineapple) on offer. But if you're in the mood for the more standard pavé de boeuf or steak tartar, that's on the menu as well. Sidewalk seating available. -Barbara Diggs Review © 2007, Wcities |

Delicious Moroccan cuisine |
36 Rue Vivienne Paris 75002 France +33 1 4028 0486 |
Dalouna serves some of the best Moroccan food in the city. It offers a huge variety of hors d'oeuvres and main course; the wine list is also impressive. Try the Méchouia with some Briouates, which is a type of samousa. But the restaurant is known to serve the best Pastilla au Lait (stuffed with almonds). Musical evenings are held from time to time. Reservation is advisable. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Eat in Pigalle |
74 Rue des Martyrs Paris 75018 France +33 1 4264 7035 |
Very close to the famous concert hall, La Cigale, this bar-restaurant calls itself La Fourmi, a tribute to the famous poetry of La Fontaine. It is a pleasant place to spend the winter: convivial atmosphere, warm colours, and good traditional cuisine. After wandering around Montmartre and the Moulin-Rouge, there is nothing better than a warm Goat's Cheese Salad or a Croque Monsieur Campagnard (traditional ham and cheese toasted sandwich). A Goat Cheese Salad costs EUR8, a Croque Monsieur around EUR5 and a beer EUR2-EUR3. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Living it up in Paris! |
4 Boulevard des Capucines 9ème arrondissement Paris 75002 France +33 1 4312 1900 http://www.legrandcafe.com/ |
This cafe has been a social hub for Parisians for over a century now, but its popularity only seems to augment with every passing year. Its location near the Opera makes it a common hangout for theatre-goers. Stylish shoppers and the corporate crowd generally make up for the rest of the clientele. But you can never be sure whom you'd run into as the joint remains open all day and all night long, making it accessible to any and everyone. The menu is essentially French, just like the decor and the ambience. So if you really want a taste of true Paris life, Le Grand Cafe is the place to go! Review © 2007, Wcities |

You've just come out from a show, it's late, you're hungry and you don't know where to go. If you're not far from the Opéra Garnier, head towards this art deco restaurant opened 24h/day. Specialising in seafood (seashells are as much a part of the decor as of the dishes), they also serve more traditional fare. Expect to pay EUR23-EUR30 for seafood platters, and EUR38-EUR46 à la carte. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Tried and tested in all the world's major capitals, this worldwide chain has inevitably opened in Paris too. Cuisine is American, mainly hamburgers, served in surroundings crammed with pieces of rock history, which include Eric Clapton's guitar or The Beatles' original music scores. Checked tablecloths and trendy Texan kitsch give the restaurant a roadhouse feel (only more classy) while rock hits are played around the clock. Review © 2007, Wcities |

For A Hearty Meal |
43 Rue Laffitte Paris 75009 France +33 14 280 0766 |
Le Laffitte cafe becomes busy at noon, when middle class businessmen from nearby come to gobble down a hearty meal on their lunch breaks. With the day's specials put up on blackboards, red and white checked table cloths, the cafe has a home-like atmosphere. And the food is excellent but not so much attention has been paid to the decor. Native traditional meals that are not found at most other places are made here. The classics on the menu are duck breast with green peppercorn sauce, roast chicken, pork shoulder and rice pudding.

Ménage à trois |
9 Rue d'Amboise Paris 75002 France +33 1 4296 3689 |
This is the perfect French bistro, as typical as can be. But Les Noces de Jeannette (Jeannette's Marriage) is also a wedding of fine cooking (with brasserie-style dishes), a setting that couldn't be more Parisian (décor and customers), and the opéra comique (opera with spoken dialogue) that is right across the street, and gives the venue its name. It is welcoming, comfortable and fairly good value for money. Set menus for EUR16-EUR26. Review © 2007, Wcities |

You'd think an English eatery would be hard to come by in Paris, but Rose Bakery is around and quite successful too. Run by a French-British couple, the restaurant's menu is distinctly British. Try the smoked salmon and dill or the broccoli quiche for lunch or brunch. For other times, there's fresh-baked scones, shortbread, cheesecake, carrot cake and other English favorites.
