Les Insouciants — Restaurant in Paris

Great little bistro in Paris! We wanted to find somewhere to have a quick bite before heading to our next reservation, and this place was perfect. It’s not a tourist trap and the staff was very kind. The table next to use had zero French but did have English as a second language & I saw one of the servers carefully explaining the specials to them. Don’t be me & agonize over your lunch spot or waste time walking all over the place - I’m glad we stopped here.

My husband had a croque monsieur & I had steak frites (it was on the specials/daily menu board but I think a version is available every day). My husband wanted a little more food from his but we still thought it was very tasty. My steak frites were great - definitely the thing to order if you’re hungry. They came with a little gravy (possibly why I thought they were under salted but they brought salt to the table & that plus the gravy made it great) & a salad. The french don’t like their meat well done & neither do I, so I was very happy with how it came out.

My French isn’t the best and I’m very shy but we managed just fine (I always try but I didn’t study my numbers very well - next time I’ll be more prepared!). Long story short - food came quickly, hit the spot, and...

If you want to be treated BAD, you have come to the right place.

I was walking down the street and I saw an announce " HAPPY HOUR cocktail, pinte 6,5 EUR". I took a seat and asked for a cocktail. At the end when i asked the check i was surprised to see that the "cocktail, pinte 6,5 EUR" was not took into account. I asked the waiter why and he told me that it is MY FAULT that i didn't ask, because the happy hour was eligile only for some of the cocktails. I tried to explain him that usually there is a "*" that precisely says which beverages are eligible for the happy hour, otherwise the costumer will assume that all of them are eligible. That was the moment when he said " oh but where do you come from?" . I find treating someone like this extremely disrespectful. Anyway he accepted to charge me 6,5 EUR, not before retelling me that this is my fault because i didn't ask and in fact he was doing me a service. I recall you that there was nowhere written that the offer was available only for certain beverages ( beers or cocktails).

So many bars on Blvd. St. Germain, i see no point in going there and being...

One of the best place in Paris! The location is perfect, situated in one of the most beautiful arondissement, it has a friendly and well curated atmosphere. The staff is amazing, very nice, polite and kind and super prepared. We just tried the brunch and it was one of the best ever because of the variety, the menu options and also the quality: the caffe is one of the best and the latte that they prepared ot was perfect (note that in France it is very difficult to find good coffe, cappuccino or latte). The food also is delicious and has the perfect combination between local prodocut and international dishes. We just passed in front during the evening and it seem also an amazing place to drink a good cocktail. I really suggest to try and it will be a must in my...
