Product Description

Savoring the renown cuisine of France should be one of the high-points of any trip to Paris. Unfortunately, many travel guides give their top ratings to deluxe "temples" of haute cuisine that most travelers will find stuffy, intimidating and - even with the strong dollar - incredibly expensive. Conversely, the low-priced brasserie/cafés that can be found on almost every street corner are fine places to stop for a drink but generally serve mediocre food. Worst of all, there are also many tourist traps that manage to be both mediocre and expensive. What's the secret to finding a great meal in Paris without spending a fortune? Join Bob and Michele Seass, authors of "Best Bistros & Brasseries in New York City" as they dine, just as most Parisians do, in cozy, reasonably priced neighborhood bistros. In "Favorite Paris Bistros - Twenty-First Century Edition" they share the many dining highlights, plus a few surprising lowlights, from their last eight trips to the City! of Light. Their trip reports also include sightseeing suggestions and tips on cozy small hotels.


From the Publisher

"Favorite Paris Bistros – Twenty-first Century Edition" is the new, revised and greatly expanded third edition of the Parisian savvy dining guide, "Favorite Paris Bistros." It is also one of the first Parisian travel guides to show all prices in euros.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book/tool for Paris visitor, January 28, 2003
By Virginia Redfield (Edmonds, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This book was sent as a gift last summer before three of my friends and I went to Paris last fall. It was one of the most helpful, concise tools for selecting eating places in Paris. It is so well organized, fits in one's handbag, and was helpful in selecting eating places that didn't "bust the budget" but were delightful. I think it is a must for the Paris traveler of many times(like me) or the first time visitor. Dom't leave home without it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't leave home without it, September 23, 2006
My husband and I just returned from a wonderful week in Paris. We set out to hit as many bistros as possible and this guide was a great help. We hit the following top picks and loved them all: Allard - probably the best frisee and lardons salad anywhere; Chardenoux - the raspberry gratin was heaven; Chez Georges - perfect in every way, one of our favorites - loved the lentil salad, sole georges and profiteroles; La Grille - the overall best experience, doesn't get any better, turbot for two was divine and the family atmosphere and personal attenion were icing on the cake; Le Voltaire - wonderfully clubby and the food was killer; and our last meal at La Petit Marguery was divine - the rabbit pate and grilled mushrooms for starters and the grand marnier souffle for finishers - wow. This book was the perfect fit for us - small, easy to use and absolutely accurate.
