*Relais du Parc (16th) The restaurant that made Alain Ducasse and Joel Robuchon famous. Perfect place for a nice summer evening or lunch in the outdoor courtyard.
*Chez Nenesse (3rd)17, rue de Saintonge, 01 42 78 46 49 I loved the poisson avec rhubarb. Zagat says: This “tiny” family-run “favorite” in the Marais is “like eating at home”, with its “reassuring” Classic French cuisine; homebodies call it “a cozy retreat in winter (ask for a table near the stove)”, and praise the “personable staff.”

Le Bistrot d'a Cote (17ieme)

This is a classic little bistro on a fairly quiet street in the heart of the 17th. We sat outside on a nice June night and were happily surprised by the lack of traffic and streetnoise. Food is great straightforward stuff, like a whole Bresse chicken (which they served in two separate servings, and which was so big that it had to be split between two people!). Everything about this place clicks nicely; nothing fancy, and that is a big part of its charm.
