"Open for: DinnerPrice range: $$$As long as you accept it’ll be noisy, you’ll have a great time at this popular, narrow Marais bistro with a marble-topped bar. Enlivened by friendly owner Édouard Vermynck, this place feels like a party, where conversations, fueled by a great wine list, leap between tables. Look forward to dishes like irresistibly rich pork rillettes from Perche in Normandy, oyster mushrooms sauteed in finely chopped garlic and parsley, and andouillette (chitterling sausage) and chicken with morel mushrooms in cream sauce. All mains are served with sides of hot crispy frites, portions are huge, and the chocolate mousse is required (though the tarte Tatin with raw cream is excellent too). Located in the 4th arrondissement.Know before you go: Book a table during the second service of the night so that you won’t feel rushed." - Alexander Lobrano
