Not only great in summer but also lovely when sitting inside in autumn: Restaurant PURO – The Social Club (28. November 2022)
It’s a good 6 months ago since I’ve last been to the PURO, and it turns out it’s not only nice when you’re sitting outside in the patio in summer, but the place also works quite well in winter. The restaurant is located on the first floor, and we were welcomed quite quickly and friendly […]
Quite a lovely place to order the best of each food stall: Bridge Food Market (26. November 2022)
I have only read about the Bridge Food Market so far, but it turns out that it is not only a food market where you can go buy your food, but the concept is quite cool. There is a common seating area, or to be more precise, a few different seating areas, and you can […]
Lovely on every level – especially when it comes to interior design: Restaurant Loup (24. November 2022)
The Restaurant Loup was picked by a good friend of mine – and I was quite curious what to expect since she’s a vegetarian. Turns out that even places which are frequented by vegetarians offer decent non-vegetarian food. The “pot de rillettes de Jean Carmet, cornichons et tartines grillées” (EUR 12.00) was definitely something I […]
The perfect French bistro for dinner – if you manage to confirm your reservation: Restaurant Au Petit Tonneau (23. November 2022)
When you want to dine out at the Au Petit Tonneau, you have to make sure that you are getting your reservation confirmed. My friend had called to book a table, but they ended up not noting down that reservation – so, we were just lucky that they somehow arranged for a table for two […]
Great for a quick and delicious lunch break: Restaurant Dochilak Opéra (23. November 2022)
I was looking for a simple and swift place for lunch, and the Dochilak Opéra is exactly that – a simple and nice place which offers good food. I went for the “dak gangent (fried chickens with caramelized sauce)” (EUR 8.00) to start, which was good but simple. The chicken wings were nice and tasty. […]
Quite a disappointing breakfast experience: Restaurant Le First @ The Westin Vendôme (23. November 2022)
The breakfast selection at the Le First in the Westin Vendôme is really just basic – I mean, you get everything you want but for the prices you pay, and for the location, and the way the hotel tries to come across, this is definitely not at the expected level when it comes to breakfast. […]
A nice Asian Bib Gourmand experience if you like sashimi: Restaurant Zen (22. November 2022)
The Restaurant Zen was listed on the Guide Michelin app as a Bib Gourmand restaurant, so, I decided to give it a try. As almost always, I went for the “edamame (salted green soy beans)” (EUR 6.00) to start and while they were good, they were, not like usually, cold, and the portion was quite […]
A decent French restaurant with good typical French dishes: Restaurant Le 154 (21. November 2022)
The Restaurant Le 154 is a nice little restaurant which offers authentic and good dishes in a nice setting. It was in the context of a work event that I spent the evening here – and, for me, the dinner started with “egg casserole with morels” which was actually surprisingly homey and enjoyable food. As […]
