This is a really good Mexican restaurant with nice decor and a good atmosphere. We only had the appetizers but they were as filling as a main meal. The chicken taquito (a corn tortilla filled with shredded chicken) had tender chicken with taco sauce and a good amount of vegetables. The taco sauce was not too spicy…

Le Village Ronsard – Paris (Maubert-Mutualite)
A cafe that had a pub like atmosphere. The waiters were friendly and greeted us with a smile. It had a wide screen TV showing the news to keep you occupied. The cafe creme (latte) was very nice. Saw some of the hot food that other customers were having and it looked of good quality….
Cafe Francois – Paris (Bastille)
This cafe felt very light, airy and spacious. There seemed to be a few additional customers here though, the pigeons and sparrows that had flown in through the open windows and doors. There was no shortage of seating. Even though we had ordered cafe cremes (latte), the coffee was given in pots with the jug…
Cocoa Cafe – Paris (Republique)
We popped into this cafe just for coffee. The waiter was friendly and he was happy even when we said that we just wanted drinks and no food. The cafe creme (latte) was creamy and frothy. We didn’t feel rushed at this cafe and the decor was pretty cool with its purple and chocolate coloured…
Pizza Pino – Paris (Republique)
A busy pizza restaurant which uses good quality ingredients for their pizzas. We were seated for quite a while before the waiter came over to take our order. Saying that, the service was good after the order was taken. The waiter didn’t seem too impressed when we said that we just wanted to share one…
Coquelicot – Paris (Abbesses)
A short walk away from the Sacre-Coeur is this rustic bistro with its stone tiled floor and quirky decor. The staff were very friendly and the service was good.
L’institut – Paris (Cardinal Lemoine)
Just south of the River Seine is this nice bistro. Head towards the back of the bistro and it opens out into a bigger area filled with comfy chairs and sofas. Perfect for a rest and a bite to eat! The hot chocolate was good but not too rich. The jug of hot milk meant that we…
Del’Aziz Cafe – Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre
A leisure centre is not the first place that would come to mind when thinking of a good Mediterranean bistro but this one is an exception. The large wooden tables and stools give it a rustic feel. You can sit either looking at the view outdoors or one of the window walls looks down onto…
Don’t Tell Titus – Saltaire
A newish bistro and restaurant located in the World Heritage Site of Saltaire village. It was a nice place with lots of comfy seats. We sat downstairs at the back of the bistro with our pots of tea. We felt quite relaxed as the bistro wasn’t busy when we were there in the afternoon. The wooden floors…
