Au DERRICK CATALAN
346 rue Lecourbe
PARIS XV
01.45.58.48.75
I was fortunate to discover this little restaurant where the hostess served us typical Catalan dishes.
Food is housemaid like aioli sauce, bread crumbs… A real festival for your taste buds!
I ate Sepias a la Plancha (mushrums), Calamares a la romana (calamari) and Lemon tart (total EUR 22.50)
I also took a bottle of Sangre de toro red wine(21.00 euros). I would not fail to return.

I entered in this restaurant incidentally, I was first attracted by the musicians who have played this evening there. They were only 2 but they put a very much nice ambience which eclipsed all rest. The atmosphere was warm but service was not realy at the top really. We had to ask 2 or 3 times to have something to drink and eat.
In brief, it is really an address to be kept for live music but indeed not for quality of service.

HAMMAM A LA MOSQUEE DE PARIS
HAMMAM AT LA MOSQUEE DE PARIS
39, rue Geoffroy-St-Hilaire
75005 Paris
Tél: 01.43.31.38.20
Today Monday I'll find the Steam Bath of the Paris Mosque. I recommend consulting days available, some are reserved for women and others are exclusively for men. After having crossed the terrace I take the left door on which hangs a sign "Women only hammam”. After a small room I found the reception. I opt for the 38€ formula. For that price I have the right to access to the steamed room, soap, a scrub, a massage of 10 minutes, a tea. The The steam bath is composed of 3 large rooms. With common areas and places more quiet. After 1 hour under steam I join a gloved lady who will work to make myself a makeover. Then I walk into the main room where I lay on benches sipping tea. I turn on the massage table, 10 minutes: is too short, but divine. Finally, I quit leaving me behind tension and toxins. The experience was positive overall, pity that the locker room does not completely hang of these cases also regrettable that the use of hair dryer self pay.

Le St Ferdinand
34 Place St Ferdinand
75017 PARIS
Metro : Porte Maillot (line 1)
TEL 01 45 74 50 74
Located just a step away from the Porte Maillot, this nice restaurant is very well decorated. In the tones of grey, the decoration is discreet and good taste. Service is flawless and the food is delightful. I took a steak tartare prepared with French fries. Small reservation on the steak tartare: pricking was missing; they must have forgotten the famous sauce Worcestershire which makes all difference. For dessert, I really liked their apple crumble and bowl of salt caramel ice cream.

Le paradis du fruit
4 rue saint honoré
75001 Paris
Metro : Les Halles (lines 4 & 14 RER A, B & D)
http://www.leparadisdufruit.fr/
This is an address with no default. Ideally, the kitchen is open from morning until evening to prepare a dish chosen from the menu or composed by oneself. For my part I chosed the Goody-Woody: toasted bread topped with chicken curry with chips and a mixed salad (12.50 euros). Verdict: hearty and light to digest, tasty and fresh. This place specialties are the fruit cocktails. This restaurant has been recently re-decorated, it's just beautiful, soothing. The seats are ultra comfortable and the ceiling gives dreams. For info Le Paradis du Fruit likes Michael Jackson, we had his music all evening and a client suddenly raised to cross the room to Moonwalk!

DELAVILLE CAFE

Metro : Bonne Nouvelle (lines 8 & 9)
Close to numerous theatres, Delaville Café is the ideal place to begin your friday evening. The restaurant is splendid, simple decoration but very "trendy" ( dilapidated ceiling, monumental stairs), the atmosphere is almost surrealist. There is a the side bar which privatized this evening and the restoring side. The card is composed of international dishes (burger, antipasti, etc, etc) in reasonable prices (15-20 € the dish and 6-7 € the dessert) ). I took a burger and I loved. The bread was loving, ventilated and crispy. On the contrary, for dessert, I took one pana cotta without a lot of taste.

Tél. 01 40 390 900
Métro : Pont Neuf (line 7) and Chatelet (lines 1, 4, 11 & 14)
Facing the oldest bridge in Paris there is a building at the foot of which you can find Kenzo Boutique and just after a huge glass door opens cordially giving access to two lifts. In this transparent cab I take the ascension to the fifth floor. I join a table in the middle of this scenery clean and Japanese-designed by Philippe Starck. I particularly like the customer thirty trendy and chic, techno music lounge and cocktail Kong :
The Caipiroska red fruit composed of vodka, lime, sugar, mashed red fruit (15 euros).
Too bad the staff are somewhat haughty. Not to be missed for any reason the restaurant on the sixth floor.

Chez Lili & Marcel (Paris)
CHEZ LILI ET MARCEL
1, Quai d’Austerlitz
75013 Paris
tel : 01 45 85 00 08
To be honest, I was not happy to have dinner in a restaurant which is called « Chez Lili et Marcel ». I told myself that it would be an old not very appetizing and seedy bistro. But when I arrived, my doubts flew off. Located at the corner of the quay of Austerlitz, this restaurant is rather big to accept big tables of a bit loud mates!!!! but offers also small quiet corners for couples. . . Decoration is splendid, with its hurdy-gurdies iron boardwalk of chocolat meunier or some bouillon Kub. Restoration is worthy of the name, generous, introduced well and rates are reasonable. Concerning the service, nothing to say, the team was very nice and professional. I have only one desire: go back to it.
