What is good in Paris is that there are plenty of good places to eat. What is less good, however, is that everyone knows them. Result ? We wait three hours to taste THE burger that makes us salivate. But honestly, the fun is still worth the wait.
Pigalle Broth
A great classic that you never get tired of. At Bouillon Pigalle, we eat franchouillard, cheap and good. In a modern brasserie setting, we come to eat an absolutely incredible pistou soup, leeks with a vinaigrette to die for, eggs mayo at €1.90, a usual bourguignon pastry and a chocolate pear for the sweet touch that is very pleasing. Oh, and the pitcher of wine is from €3.30, and that is unbeatable.

Open daily from 12 p.m. to midnight
Mommys
One thing is certain, Mamiche has not finished attracting the crowds of lovers of good bread. Two bakeries, and now a third delicatessen shop, where Parisians come to get their country bread prepared with old-fashioned sourdough, or their delicious melt-in-your-mouth cookies. The queue usually stretches all over the street, but regardless, music is a real treat for the taste buds.

Dumbo
In a very short time, this tiny stall with a long smoking counter has built quite a reputation. If, like us, you have trouble making choices, you’ll be delighted: the menu only has two perfectly executed burgers and well smash on a hot plancha. I promise, every bite is perfect and that’s why there’s a queue, in Pigalle as in the rue des Petites-Écuries!

Big Bao
The favorite address for all fans of neo-Asian dishes. Here we find some of the Bao Family classics – such as the baozi or the chao fan – but the stars of the house are no longer the little steamers that you could find in rue Saint-Denis but steamed fish and a Pekinese duck served whole to share with a few friends. The little extra? We devour it all on the banks of the Saint-Martin canal, for a good meal along the water.

Open every day
Holybelly
Holybelly brunch is worth the trip for all comfort food fans, take our word for it. Proof of this is that the menu offers a multitude of delicacies, each less light than the other, and we are very happy with it. Home made granola-bars, pancakes with fried eggs, bacon and maple syrup, potato pancakes, homemade cakes… The hardest part? Choose.

Open daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Immersion
Another brunch for the road (and in the same street moreover). With a menu that changes with the seasons, Immersion takes us on a string of sweet and savory dishes. Fat crush on the “smiling croissant” with its well-buttered and homemade viennoiserie stuffed with cream cheese, avocado and gomasio scrambled eggs. We water it all with an unmissable Iced Matcha Latte and voila. So for the love of brunch, go try this address, whatever the cost (in this case, a long queue).
