Where To Eat & What To Do In Paris, According To A Michelin-Starred Chef

EAT & DRINK

Bistros

Le Bon Georges – This is a quintessentially Parisian bistro on a very picturesque little street corner, just a few yards away from the Place Saint-Georges in the 9th arrondisement. If we can muscle onto a table inside, we sit by the blackboards that are chalked up with a beautiful, scribbled menu, and order dishes like asperges blanches with hollandaise or oeuf mayonnaise, which very much inspire the menu at Joséphine Marylebone. The wine list is like a tome – they have an excellent selection to get your nose stuck into.

Chez Georges – This restaurant has been around since 1926 and is an institution on the city’s bistro scene. It’s somewhere my wife Lucy and I like to visit by ourselves for a quiet table in the corner. The interiors are the epitome of the art-nouveau movement, and when you have dinner in the soft lighting of the evening, the atmosphere is exceptional. There are copper pans and saucisson hanging by the bar – it’s very French indeed.

Parcelles – We had the sweetbreads the last time we were here. If they have that on the menu, then you order it!

Le Bistro Paul Bert – I still love to be squashed into a table here. It’s a boisterous place full to the brim with interesting people who share an affinity for the little bistro’s impeccable food. Its prix fixe menu is a very good choice for something quick, simple and delicious.

...but please ask for "pommes" or "pommes frites."

Ask for the same thing in Germany - just make sure to pronounce all six letters.
