During the Olympics (if they are open ) but certainly after, add to your list these five classic Paris bistros to make you City of Lights vacation that much more memorable and easy:
FIVE GREAT PARIS RESTAURANTS
Chez Monsieur - Classic French bistro in the heart of the 8th Arrondissemont. Near to Palais de Elysée and Place Vendome.
L'Îlot Vache - A wonderful gem of a restaurant, located on the Ile Saint-Louis. Near to Notre Dame.
Le Frank - Located inside the Frank Gehry-designed Fondation Louis Vuitton in the Bois de Bologne. Behind the museum are public gardens to explore after your meal.
Les Mauvais Garcons - 4 rue des Mauvais Garcons - Smart, charming and centrally located to explore the Marais District after you dine.
What to See in Paris 2024:
What to See in Paris 2024:Eiffel Tower at night, close-up. We were pleasantly surprised how lovely it is to visit the parks around the iconic tower. Filled with people enjoying the light show.
Fondation Louis Vuitton - Rotating exhibits and beautiful architecture.
Chateau de Fontainebleau - A 50 minute train ride out of the city, followed by a bus ride (taxis are scarce) brings you to the gates of this spectacular 1,500 room palace. Fontainebleau was the residence of choice for Napoleon. You'll be able to see his apartments and bed.
Extensive gardens and lake in the rear are perfect for a post palais walk-about. The town outside the gates has numerous cafes and restaurants to relaxed before your return to Paris. A really special place to see.
