Do not take it personally, they say that to everyone including other Parisians or Frenchmen. Closed Saturday lunch and Sunday. Patrica Wells says this is one of the best buys in Paris. Related to Les Zygomates which is related to Les Zygomates in Boston. All good bistro cooking, imaginative and bargains.
Wines also imaginative.
Open for lunch and Thursday evenings. Local place, home cooking and wines good, simple and value oriented. 56 81. 5 rue de Pontoise. Like above but a bit more expensive. Local joint in St Germain.
