27 Best Restaurants in Paris, According to Locals | Condé Nast Traveler

"Set up in a former kebab joint, Bouche is a bit of an outlier for this section of the 11th arrondissement-20th arrondissement border. The small plates and natural wine bar stands out for its slightly Brutalist interior (exposed textured stone, picture windows, vintage furnishings, and sparse decor–the kind of details more common in Berlin than Paris), and a menu of seasonal dishes that change every two weeks. You might find skate fish steamed in a Thai bouillon with lime, garlic, and chile pepper on the menu alongside an octopus okonomiyaki coated with lardo, spelt-beetroot risotto with a cream of dill, or a veal tartare with Jerusalem artichoke chips and tarragon. Sunday is the only day Bouche is open for lunch and it's one of the most sought-after reservations in Paris. Expect a shorter menu with brunchier additions: get the fried egg with smoked ham, aged mimolette cheese, and spicy mayo on an English muffin." - Sara Lieberman, Lindsey Tramuta
