Greetings from Cape Town! We only recently discovered your wonderful videos. We have subscribed without hesitation! We were in Paris for a few days last April and could only manage visiting a few highlights. If we ever come again, we would definitely go to some of the eating places, passages and parks that you have suggested. We love the ambience of your videos. Very tasteful and relaxing as well as informative. Your English is really excellent! Please continue to delight us. Regards from Charlotte and Patrick

Wow ! What a lovely tour of some of Paris's finest bistros ! Delightful, my friend ! I was in Paris in 2017, Montmartre, seven days, but I missed all these places. I was by myself, was afraid of getting lost, so stuck to all the straight lines. I live in Australia, and if I'm able to go back to Paris, I will definitely try all these bistros. Thank you for the charm and hospitality you bring to these videos. It makes us foreigners feel a little bit ... Parisian ! And that's always a nice feeling. All the best !

Very informative video! I've visited France many times since 1985 & have eaten in a ton of restaurants but you turned me on to two more that I will put on my go-to list for my next trip to Paris! After the Olympics😅😅

Wow! Spectacular Bistros. I already had Le Petite Verdome on my list for our visit in September. One thing that stands out with French restaurants is their tightness in space. Are there any guidelines of etiquette when sitting so tightly together? Thank you for your informative content and quality videos.
@paristoptips6 ай бұрын
Thanks 👍 Yes some restaurants are quite tight. It is awaited from hosts that they don't speak too loud, and that they kind of "shut their ears" to what they can hear from other tables. But it also enables nice encounters: during my visit at "Au Vieux Comptoir", I had a very nice conversation with the American couple sitting on the table 50 centimeters on my left 🙂

Great recommendations! This last year I have enjoyed myself and recommended to others- 2 old bistros that I think is coming back strong from a period of loosing some of its past good reputation: Wepler and particularly Brasserie Balzar

All of these restaurants have quite a bit of charm and delicious food. How would they handle folks who speak no French? What is the reservation process like? Online, by phone? Nice work as always.
@paristoptips6 ай бұрын
If you go on their website, you'll see some of them have pages in English and Menu in English. So that would be fine for these. But for Chez Léon, and maybe Le Petit Vendôme, it might be more difficult. You should go there and use Google as a translation mean if necessary.
@johnetie6 ай бұрын
@@paristoptips I am not bothered with translation apps, just wondering how the staff would react to me if I used such things.
@paristoptips6 ай бұрын
I don't think that would be an issue. The cliché of the grumpy Parisian waiter, which can be true, I witnessed it in the café in Jardin des Tuileries, would mainly happen in very touristy, crappy places!😁

I always love to go to La Maison de Verlaine, just by Place de la Contrescarpe, where Hemingway had a studio, and the poet Verlaine lived also. Please visit there ( fly me over, and I’d be delighted to accompany you! 😅)

Hello from Australia. Love your videos. I watch them as I am eating dinner otherwise I get too hungry. Would it be considered odd to order say 2 starters and a dessert rather than a starter and main? Or would this be a faux pas? Thank you.
