The Best Restaurants in Paris, According to a French Food Expert | Eater

"At his bistro near the Bastille, chef Christophe Philippe serves the type of gutsy, honest, earthy bistro cooking the late Anthony Bourdain would have loved. A proper meal here ends with the best chocolate mousse in Paris; it’s made from the sublime chocolate produced by Italian Claudio Corallo on the tiny African islands of São Tomé and Príncipe. Unctuous, funky, deep, this dark fluff will leave you with a craving you’ll never escape. Located in the 12th arrondissement. Vibe check: The casual atmosphere — red banquette, tiled floor — drops you right into an Edward Hopper painting." - Alexander Lobrano
