- Restaurant Le Chat Noir near the Moulin Rouge. The Black Cat is a traditional French eatery right next to the Moulin Rouge, on the adjacent block. Like the cabaret venue, this restaurant has become a very important attraction to anyone visiting Pigalle for the first time.
- Les Pinces Pigalle near the Moulin Rouge. Les Pinces won’t be open for food at 5am, but they will serve up some tasty gourmet street food during regular hours.
- Pépone Café near the Moulin Rouge. In the opposite side street, Pépone Café is the area’s token Italian spot. Great for pizza and pasta, Pépone Café also has a bunch of ready made meal options behind the counter like salad, ravioli and baked goods.
- Bar À Bulles near the Moulin Rouge. The Bar À Bulles is a hidden gem, and I only tell a few people about it each year. You’re in luck! This is the bar and restaurant facility that is built into the upper level of the Moulin Rouge building.

My list of recommendations for where to eat in Paris covers a wide variety of dining types. There are bistros, cafés, bouillons, restaurants that specialize in regional cuisine, and places that simply have one focus (ie. oysters). In addition to being categorized by type or uniqueness, I have also provided a pricing legend to help you out. Many of ...
I highly recommend you stop in at Café Lucy, which is located on the 2nd floor of the Musée de l’Homme. It’s free to enter and you just go up the stairs. They have a cafeteria-style service that offers sandwiches, desserts, coffee, and tea. I had an excellent chocolate cake and Kusmi tea for 7.5 €. It provides one of the best views of the Eiffel To...
(a) What Are Crêpes?
Crêpes are thin pancakes that come sweet (crêpes sucrées) or savoury (galettes). They come a dime a dozen in Paris and they are especially popular on February 2nd, La Chandeleur (Candlemas), also known as The Day Of The Crêpes. La Chandeleur celebrates changing from winter to spring and goes back to Roman times. But really, crêpes are a favourite year-round because they are typically cheap. You can easily pick up a crêpe from a street vendor….but don’t. I suggest heading to an authentic crêpe...
(b) Breizh Cafés
I first had a crêpe at one of the Breizh cafés a few years ago along the Seine river. They had a pop-up take-out booth and I had a delicious apple crêpe with a glass of cider. The Breizh restaurant group was started by Breton Bertrand Larcher and the restaurants are known for using high-quality ingredients, especially ones from Brittany. One indication that this was truly an authentic Breton restaurant? They had pommeau on the menu. It’s very difficult to find outside of Normandy and Brittany...
(c) My Lunch
I had a large pichet (50cl) of brut cidre (dry cider) served in a customary ceramic bowl, and the special for the day, the Complète Épinard Galette (sunny-side up organic egg, artisanal ham from Brittany, raw milk comté cheese, “Bordier” butter, and spinach). The meal was fabulous and I ate the whole thing! I then had the Quimperoise galette for dessert. It’s a crêpe with homemade apple compote, salted butter caramel, and vanilla ice cream. It was one of my best meals in Paris and the bill ca...
Bouillons are restaurants that popped up in the 19th and 20th centuries with the purpose of serving traditional, classic French food to workers at cheap prices. Their distinct, interiors (Belle-Epoque and Art Nouveau designs), and fast service made them very popular and while there are only a few left in Paris, the remaining ones continue the tradi...
(a)What is a Soufflé?
A soufflé is a very light and fluffy, savoury or sweet dish made with egg whites and a cream sauce. It is baked and served in small or large ramekins. The name uses the verb, “souffler” which means, “to blow”, “to blow out”, or “to puff”. All these words perfectly describe the soufflé which is light, airy, and large. Soufflés date back to the early 18th century in France.
(b) Le Récamier
If you want to eat a soufflé Le Récamier is the place to go. It was named after Jeanne Récamier (known as Juliette) who was a socialite in the late 1700s and early 1800s in France. She was quite the beautiful celebrity hobnobbing with artists, politicians and intellectuals. Le Récamier opened over 15 years ago and is owned by chef Gérard Idoux and the restaurant continues to entertain and serve heads of state and celebrities much like Juliette did.
(c) My Lunch
I had a cheese soufflé (soufflé au fromage) as my “main” course, accompanied by 2 glasses of white wine. I had heard that it was best to go with a “simple” soufflé rather than one with additional ingredients such as salmon, mushroom, or escargot. In this way, you would really be able to savour the true cheese flavour and it wouldn’t be overpowered by another flavour. For dessert I had a sweet soufflé (soufflé sucré), a dark chocolate soufflé called, “Soufflé au Chocolat Noir de Saint-Domingue...
(a) Reservations and No Reservations
Chez Janou is an incredibly popular restaurant. Getting a reservation was impossible. You can’t reserve online. You can only call. I tried but was told nothing was available. So I asked the concierge at the hotel to try. No luck. My friend and I dropped by and were told if we showed up at 6:30 another night, we would have a chance to get a table. We did and were so happy we got a table (albeit outside) and it was cool but manageable. In all honesty, sitting outside was nice because it was mor...
(b) My Dinner
Dinner was superb and very reasonably priced. The service was good after waiting 45 minutes to place our order. Chez Janou specializes in Provençal cuisine and offers more than 80 brands of Pastis! My friend and I got the Côte de Provence red house wine (a pichet-50cl) and shared one of the entrées, a small pot of ratatouille, anchovies, and tapenade. For the main course, I the Farcis provençaux (stuffed tomatoes) and my friend had the flambé prawns (Gambas flambées au Pastis with anise rice)...
My friend and I had dinner at Poulette (we made reservations). We shared the Beignets de fliers de courgette, and ricotta harissa (stuffed zucchini flowers with ricotta cheese and harass). The main course was pork belly caramelized with Chinese cabbage, carrot purée, and fried onions. Also had a glass of 2020 Cahors wine. Don’t be turned off by the...
I had read that one of the best places to get a baguette sandwich is at Le Petit Vendôme, located very close to Palais Garnier. I’ll cut to the chase: I had both the plat du jour and the sandwich (later in the day) and one was better than the other. This French bistro is cosy and unpretentious which was surprising in view of the area it’s located i...
During my 36th trip to France, my friend and I ate at Bistro des Vosges, located a few blocks away from our Citadines Bastille Marais apartment. It specializes in dishes from the Aveyron region, which I visited earlier in the year. The meal was very good as was the service. I had the grilled sausage from the Aveyron and aligot, which is a regional ...
I guess with a name like “Au Bourguignon” you know you’ll encounter Burgundy favourites, such as boeuf bourguignon. So that’s what I had. The boeuf bourguignon was made with stewing beef (ie. beef chuck), diced bacon, mushrooms, and baby potatoes and came in an enamelled cast iron French oven or maybe it was a cast iron mini cocotte. Either way, th...
