🇫🇷 Skip the Lines Near the Eiffel Tower! 🙅‍♀️

Originally planned to visit Carette, but saw a crazy queue under the hot noon sun 🫠... Stumbled upon Bistrot Le Poincaré (4.3⭐ on Google) instead! ✨ Cozy vintage décor – perfect for mirror selfies when quiet! 📸 💸 €143.6 for 4 people – huge portions, we left stuffed!! 🥘🍽️ Starters: 🧅 Onion Cream Soup (€14) Sweet?! Totally unexpected! 🤯 🐌 Baked Escargot (€14) Tender with fragrant pesto – normally hate pesto, but this was magic! 🌿✨ (Google says "too tough," but I like well-done!) Mains: 🐑 Lamb Shank + Mash + Fried Eggplant (€28) BEST DISH EVER!! 🔥 Served with smoky herb ignition – meat falls off the bone, zero gaminess! Mash tastes cheesy 🧀, eggplant is... just eggplant. 🍆 🦆 Duck Breast w/ Orange-Honey Glaze (€27) Tastes like steak (??) – perfect pink center 🦆🍯, paired with quinoa-like crunch. Addictive! Pasta: 🧀 Truffle Cream Mac & Cheese (€19) Bland... needed pepper boost. 🫢✋ 💧 Water (€8.6) Most expensive 1L ever – rookie mistake in Paris! 💸😭 Verdict: ✅ Hidden gem – great flavors (except pasta), romantic vibe 💖 ❌ Skip the water (bring your own!) 🚰 #Paris #FrenchFood #EiffelTowerEats #ParisRestaurants #CozyVibes #FoodieRecs
