4. Les Cocottes

So the concept is simple and stripped down from the well known French chef Christian Constant; food served in a Frenchy-styled cocotte on high stools. Nice small restaurants ( the portions are a bit on the small side too) but the food is good!

Hours:

Phone: 01 47 05 86 89

7. Tomy + Co

One of the best places to eat in Paris hands down. I discovered chef Tomy Gousset at the Taste of Paris food show and it was simply a divine start of a food love affair.

Address: 22 Rue Surcouf, 75007 Paris

Hours:

Phone: 01 45 51 46 93

8. Carmin

Don’t judge the book by the cover, step inside the typical cafe to find a mix of “regular” food you’d find in Paris, but it’s dependable (steak, salmon tartare, burgers, salads..etc) and the decor is cosy.
