Where to eat in Paris
It is not easy to find good restaurants in Paris. There are a lot of tourist traps, unfortunately. The big mistake is not researching good restaurants: we love to use TripAdvisor, posts from fellow travel bloggers, Instagram, and TikTok. A nice feature of TripAdvisor is that you can book a table in advance for a large number of restaurants in Paris. Although this was not always necessary, we wanted to be on the safe side.
Walking around Paris, you will see a patisserie almost everywhere: they sell the most delicious cakes, cookies, and tarts. And let us not forget fluffy croissants. Make sure to visit the best patisseries in Paris. But pastries are not all there is to eat: there are so many yummy foods to try in Paris.
Here are the restaurants we had lunch or dinner during our stays in Paris.
The Avocado Show
Gomu burgers
Bo&mie

Morice galka ice cream
Les Rupins
Holybelly5
Mokus L’ecureuil
Drinks: Bistrot Renaissance en Le Bimbo
Le Circus
Address: 204 Rue de Tolbiac
In the cozy Butte Aux Cailles, you will find this traditional French Bistro. On the menu are different French classic dishes such as Kir, paté, and steak tartare. I had a very meaty dinner with the paté as an entrée and a classic steak tartare as a main course. The service and the food were good. I especially liked the steak tartare, although it was already prepared.
Morabeza
Address: 61 Rue de l’Amiral Mouchez
This small Cape Verdian specialty restaurant is in the 13th district. We ordered an Assiette Exotique: Ratatouille of vegetables with rice and baked banana: delicious. With the food, we had a bottle of red wine. The strong red wine paired well with the flavorful food. When looking at the menu, I immediately saw the mango Tarte Tatin for dessert. It was everything I thought it would be: a thin crust with sweet mango and caramel. On top of it, was a small scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Le Caravelle
Address: 5 rue d’Alesia
This little Italian restaurant is very popular. On a Friday evening, it was packed. We ordered some pizza and gnocchi. The service was very fast, correct, and funny. The gnocchi with tomato, mozzarella, and basil was delicious. The pizzas looked amazing and are big. I would definitely recommend going there if you are in the neighborhood and you want something different than typical French food.
