Your Favorite Retaurants in Latin Qtr and Rue Cler Area

Still trying to decide whether to stay in Latin Qtr or Rue Cler Area (College due France or Relais Bosquet) - Figured we put good restaurants into the mix -

So, what are your favorite restaurants in these 2 areas and how reasonably (or not) priced are they?

Thanks.

If you stay at the HDCDF and get a street view, you can look out your window and see what the diners are eating at Le Pre Verre.

Latin Qtr! rue Cler area is boring and you have to take the metro/bus to all the sites, where as, from the Latin Qtr, you can just walk. Restaurants are also more affordable.

I like Le Vin SObre on the rue St jacques and Le Vin Qui Danse on the Fossé St Jacques and last night we ate at an excellent place :

Le Mauzac

7 rue de l’ Abbe de l’Epee

Also recommend the Latin Quarter for atmosphere and central location.

The three places we always make a point of dining in during our stays in Paris are Au Bon Coin in rue de la Collégiale, L%26#39;Époque on rue du Cardinal-Lemoine and Le Languedoc on Boulevard de Port-Royal.

They all serve excellent traditional cuisine at very reasonable prices.

Bon appétit!

In the Rue Cler neighborhood

Le Florimond, 19, av de la Motte-Picquet just wonderful.

Le P’tit Troquet, 28, rue de l%26#39;Exposition Phone: 01 47 05 80 39 would be a perfect choice.

We loved La Terrasse, but it is more of bistro, just great for lunch and a glass of wine in the late afternoon. Love the roti chicken , pomme frites or onion soup.

I%26#39;ve heard that L%26#39;Ami Jean, on Rue Malar just off Rue Saint Dominique, not far from the Eiffel Tower is a really nice place for dinner. Mostly locals.

Les Hombres on top of the Branly museum is a little more expensive because of it%26#39;s unique view of the Eiffel Tower. However, lunch may be within your budget and they do have a 4:00 tea. 360° view of the city.

Was just there this evening and passed by two favorites on the rue Boutebrie. Chez Hamadi for excellent (and very affordable) couscous and the Porte Pot wine bar.

|||

In the Latin Quarter, Les Fetes Galantes at 17 Rue de l%26#39;Ecole Polytechnique and Chez Lena et Mimile at 32 rue Tournefort are favourites of mine.

|||

In the Latin Quarter, Le Bourbon at 20, r Xavier Privas. You can sit outside the restaurant and watch the people walk by. We usually start with a salad Nicoise, then moules frites and always order a bottle of wine. All of this usually costs 30.00 e.

We%26#39;ve also had frogs legs here.

I looked up Chez Hamedi as a potential for April and it looks good. This is the translated version...

12, rue Boutebrie 75005

Tel : 01-43-54-03-30 Tel: 01-43-54-03-30

Cluny La Sorbonne Cluny La Sorbonne

Chez Hamadi is a small restaurant run by a team of Tunisian Tunisian cuisine are simple and not more expensive. Veritable small institution of the Latin Quarter that used to discover when they are students and where they return once installed in life, %26quot;Chez Hamadi%26quot; is good and simple small couscous with a fine semolina flavored.

The Osbane it%26#39;s a small stuffed savory qu%26#39;Hamadi rumen is one of the few restaurants to offer.

For large fans, you also have the opportunity to taste a half head of lamb.

Attention la tête ! Beware the head!

As for wines, Hamadi has a nice selection of wines tunisiens Mornag as the castle or the hillsides of Carthage at an average price of 12 €.

People eat at Hamadi quickly with an addition, and often without being actually applied, but the reception is nice and warm. The addition also runs generally around € 15 per person.

I stayed in the Latin Quarter on my first trip, and in the Rue Cler are this trip. I think the Rue Cler area is really nice, but it is more quiet and residential. So it is really a matter of what you are looking for. In the 7th, we had two great meals: one at the aforementioned Chez l%26#39;Ami Jean (second best meal of my life, and about a tenth of the price of the best meal) and also at Fontaine de Mars, which is a textbook French bistro, and I mean that in the most complimentary way.
