Opposite the Île Saint-Louis, this old-fashioned brasserie is a tourist's dream, with its period decor, flowery carpets, large chandelier, mirrors and frescoes, showcasing the art of French entertaining. The cuisine is classic and well-crafted, enough to introduce you to the national repertoire: ratatouille, truffled mimosa eggs, sole meunière, mashed potatoes and beurre blanc, duck breast, sweet potato purée and orange sauce, bourbon vanilla crème brûlée, brioche perdue and salted butter caramel.
