La Canaille
eccentric eating
4 rue Crillon, 4ème • 01 42 78 09 71

Open lunch & dinner Mon-Fri, dinner only Sat
In this quirkily laid-back literary café, dont be
surprised if the waiter hands you his note pad and
asks you to write down your food order. The French
cuisine with a twist - salmon in a crunchy peanut
sauce, for example - is reassuringly reliable.

L'Enoteca
Italian know-how
25 rue Charles V, 4ème • 01 42 78 91 44
Open lunch & dinner daily
This welcoming wine bar is
the
place to try both Italian
wine (there are some 30,000 bottles in the cellar) and
choice Italian food. Dishes such as swordfish
carpaccio
with pesto, risotto with asparagus, and
bunet
(choco-
late flan), together with unpretentious service and
decor, mean reservations are advisable.

Georget
rustic bliss
64 rue Vieille du Temple, 4ème • 01 42 78 55 89
Open lunch & dinner Mon-Fri, dinner only Sat
More like a country kitchen than a Paris restaurant,
this is the kind of place where you get to watch your
steak being chopped off an enormous side of beef and
thrown on to the wood-fire griddle to sizzle. The
atmosphere might be smoky and the staff can be
rude, but the food is good and filling.

Le Vieux Bistro
timeless attraction
14 rue du Cloître Notre Dame, 4ème • 01 43 54 18 95
Open lunch & dinner daily
Despite its touristy address, The Old Bistro retains an
authentic feel, including a dining room that looks as
if it hasnt changed in decades, and a cache of regulars
who never tire of dishes such as Lyonnais sausage
with potatoes,
boeuf bourguignon
and
tarte tatin
.
Portions are generous; the service likewise.
