Bistro-chic in Paris serving French cuisine, grilled marrow bone, frog legs, daily specials.
Paris wouldn't really be Paris without its gastronomic monuments. In this illustrious house of Saint-Germain-des-Prés – which has feasted its customers since the 1950's – the partition is well organized. The bistro-chic setting made of white tablecloths, red leather bench seats and paintings of great Masters gives this Lyon bouchon a lovely look. On the spot, French cuisine is highlighted as proven by the bone marrow grilled with thyme flower, the black radish with cream, the Provençale-style fresh frog legs, the warm Lyon sausage with pistachio and the warm potatoes with oil. Each day has its own dish according to the week, then we always come back with pleasure, smile and an happy stomach.

The food classical
A éviter si vous êtes des personnes de couleur !!
The creme brulee had been ‘cooked’ too long; the eggs were sort of scrambled. Aside from the fact that that changes the structure (granier), the taste is also effected (less custard taste, more egg taste).
It appears that they have become a bit sloppy in the kitchen. Apparantly they get a lot of customers who have seen the youtube video if ‘Les Frenchies’ (they ask every non-french customer about it). Well, the restaurant has the looks you might be looking for, but it doesn’t make up on high expectations you might have about their food.
