( 01 44 61 91 95; 69 rue des Gravilliers, 3e; starters €12-15, mains €18-26; lunch
Tue-Fri, dinner to 11pm; Arts et Métiers)
So secretive it's almost a speakeasy, Be-
hind is just that - set in a lovely courtyard between (and behind) the North African
404 restaurant and Andy Walhoo bar and club. Chilled in a 'shoes-off' kind of way,
this place is a lot more serious behind the scenes, serving both classic bistro and
more inventive dishes. Vegetarians: more than half of the starts are meatless.
Smokers: there's a
fumoir
behind the closet door upstairs.

Bistro

€16.50 & €19.50; Hôtel de Ville)
This no-frills bistro is a Parisian institution in situ
for over a century. If you're looking for an authentic menu from the early 20th cen-
tury and prices (well, almost) to match, you won't do better than this.
