I went to visit the last house occupied by the painter. Attention, access to apartments is via a steep staircase. The visit did not take much time, after a few drawings and paintings and his studio already the way out. I stayed a little about my hunger for my taste there was not enough work of the great master to admire however there are long streamers explanatory work and a plan for the city of Paris that gives direction murals and other paintings.

Admission is 5 euros. Closed Tuesdays.

Le petit marguery
9 Boulevard de Port Royal
75013 Paris
01.43.31.58.59
Métro : Les Gobelins (ligne 7)

This is one of my favourite places in Paris.
This Gourmet restaurant has about thirty seats and offers very good quality products cooked simply.
You must go visit their extensive website and then call to reserve.
I took the menu at 35 euros starting with the duck foie gras (delicious!) then I ate kidneys with mustard sauce, and finally for dessert, the giant profiterole with vanilla ice cream and homemade hot chocolate.

Restaurants in Paris Les Vendanges

Restaurant les Vendanges
40, rue Friant

A true classic for the general idea that we can have about French catering. For me the most pleasant about Guy Tardif cooking is the variety of food that make each of his dishes.
I ate a starter, Cassoulet of snails from Burgundy with Tardis beans and sauteed mushrooms. Then I had a main-course, pikeperch watercress sauce and green vegetables.
The Menu is 25 euros.
The bad is that after eating it, there is no more space for a real dessert. So I had a coffee which comes with its little cakes (5 euros). The wine list is impressive in its size and price.
I finished the evening with this idea; I always come to be happy after a good meal.
