Just returned from Paris. My 2nd visit and it was even better than the first! Now I feel like I can jump off the touristy track and enjoy Paris even more like a local my 3rd visit! Thanks for the great ideas. Love your content!
SO GLAD you did Rue Des Martyrs. This was where my wife and I spent our last evening in Paris before coming home to Australia, 5 years ago. I miss that street so much! It was vibrant, fun, and I had a rhubarb beer at a wine bar overlooking the street opposite a pedestrian crossing, which was hilarious watching Parisians just leave their cars over the crossing without a care. Gotta love Paris. Walked back to our hotel near the Gare du Nord, through Pigalle, and at night that is quite the experience!
I have become a huge fan. I was in Paris a few weeks ago and your recommendations are spot on! Good job - keep ‘em coming! Merci pour tout ce que tu fais😍
Bonjour I have enjoyed watching your videos as we prepare to come to Paris It looks like there is a change in the weather, as I hoped I would like to meet on Wednesday, April 27 in the evening to buy you a drink or more RSVP
Thanks again both. 👏👏 Particularly for Rue de Buci as we stay on Rue Dauphine from Thu. 😁 Nice to see a Retro Tour bike at 3:16 as we take our 5th tour with them on Friday. 😁😁
L'Escargot Montorgueil and Le Procope are GREAT choices (Thomas Jefferson ate at Procopes its that old). Some of our other Paris favorite "intermediate level" restaurants are Le Grand Colbert, Brasserie Bofinger, and Café de la Paix. "High End" try La Grande Cascade and Le Grand Véfour, both very expensive but the LUNCH menu is the secret for far less €€€.
Thank you so much. We are heading over there at the end of Nov. and. beginning of Dec. and can't wait. We will be celebrating our anniversary, Do you have any suggestions? We do not care for Michelin Star restaurants.
I hope everyone will enjoy all the places and restaurant, its very appreciated work that lead all of us to find all famous, Sir its humble request would you share a video of Restaurant that offers Halal food for Muslims, Thanks a lot,
Great list as it is almost impossible to narrow it down to 5. As a local it made me think, how many "restaurant streets" could one do to recommend? I would say maybe 30-50...? In your list, I do not longer recommend Mouffetard to visitors because I think it lost its charm and so I would swap that one with rue Oberkampf in the 11e! Also for Japanese/Korean I would consider rue St Anne!
Sorry but I don't think 'touristic' is a word. ....I looked it up and the english word is 'touristy' . Ok it is a word used by 3 languages! Having said that I love your channel and look forward to binging your past episodes.
Hello Colleen & ur better half, I definitely keeping track all ur recommendation, I can’t wait to travel to Paris, keep uploading more info, I’m always waiting for ur video…ur subscriber from nj…
Good to know! Also loved the hidden passage shopping episode - bravo We were the ones who cancelled one day before are Christmas day flight - too dangerous. - going back 1st week in June - thrilled !!
These are all great, I was surprised you didn't recommend Rue Vielle du Temple in the Marais. You might want to check out Le Colmacon (definitely get a reservation). Some interesting things there like escargot in pastry puffs. I'm a retired flight attendant that did a lot of Paris, I've recommended your channel to some friends that are going for the first time.
let's go with your video on the street store on the road and I see many people are enjoy in restaurant.. the shop and street food look yummy I am your fan thank your share ...!
Thank you for your lovely well-researched videos! I’d love to see a video about places to eat and things to do around Roland Garros for the up-coming French Open.
Rue des Martyrs brought back so many wonderful memories. Where you sat at the beginning, near the carousel, was where we would sit some lunchtimes or afternoons just people watching. We would sometimes buy some food and eat it at that spot and enjoy the ambience, traffic and all. We stayed nearby for a week and just loved it. A book titled “The Only Street in Paris: Life on the Rue des Martyrs” by Elaine Sciolino is a great read about one of Paris’s remaining quirky villages. Have subscribed and am looking forward to watching more of your entertaining and informative videos.
I recall dining in a fine restaurant in Paris. The next table sat two French gentlemen who got carried away with ordering. When the bill came, they both emptied their pockets and even had to write a check.
I’m so loving your videos. I’m hoping they’re up-to-date. My husband and I are visiting Paris July 7 through the 10th and we are going to try many of your recommendations. We own a local restaurant here in Orlando Florida. Maybe you’ll visit us one day.
Love your videos. Informative, not pretentious. Also love the vibe between you two❤️ Thank you for your work, I appreciate it. We’ll be in Paris in May, so looking forward to it. Again, thank you for sharing your city with us!
If you want Japanese or Korean food, check out rue Sainte-Anne which has some of the best places in the city. Use metro line 14 and get off at Pyramides, or metro line 3 and get off at Quatre Septembre to start from the other end of the street.
And Les Deux Magots was a hangout at various points for Oscar Wilde, Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus, André Gide, Jacques Prévert, Jean Giraudoux, André Breton, Ernest Hemingway, and Pablo Picasso.
Just discovered your videos, Wonderful. Small note, the chyron for r. Montorgueil is misspelled, r. Montorgeuil. Affects pronunciation for those of us unacquainted with the street. (Pix of street signs show correct orthography).
I have been to Paris 3 times and have always wanted to visit Les Deux Magots and Cafe de Flore, but for some reason I have stayed away. I am going again this summer, which of the two would you recommend? (you probably won't recommend either, but make a choice for me)
I love this great video on the beautifuls restaurants in the beautiful and magnificent city of Paris, j' adore cette grand video sur les beaux restaurants de la belle et douce ville de Paris
You guys are the 'bombe' ! :) I just discovered your channel 2 days ago and I cannot stop watching. Your friendly, accessible style and excellent content is miles above the many that I follow. Thank you for your great work. I've been to all these areas on my many visits to Paris and can attest to everything you recommend. Avec mes remerciements et mes meilleurs vœux à vous deux.
Just returned from a few days in Paris and used your previous recommendations for places to eat - and they did not disappoint! Au Pere Louis provided us with our favourite lunch ever, the mousse au chocolat from a Cul de Cochon was the best I’ve ever eaten and a celebratory dinner at La Jacobine was the perfect finale to our stay. Thank you for guiding us to these wonderful places.
Thank you, yet again, for another helpful video with so many great tips! I have a special notebook dedicated for writing down all these amazing places. Merci beaucoup 😘
Everyone says that le Procope is the oldest restaurant in Paris, but I understand (and check their website) that it is actually La Petite Chaise that is oldest. I loved that restaurant regardless.
Could you please advise how to eat on street where there are no benches or parks around? Can we just eat in front of the shop (e.g. in front of a Boulangerie that we just bought our food)?
In the video, you said: "Bouillon Chartier", but the photo was "Bouillon Pigalle". I know "Bouillon Chartier (1900) is in Montparnasse. Which do you mean?
Another wonderful helpful video! I am excited to fly back in September and for the first time, head off to the south of France! :) I hope you are both well and safe!
God bless us I like it very beautiful and relaxing place. I want to travel around the world together my family, friends and relatives. In God all things are possible po. Thanks and regards to all of you there in your country. Thanks From Lani D. Nepomuceno, Cagsawa ruins, Busay, Daraga, Albay Philippines

I made a reservation for Le Vieux Bistrot through Fork for lunch. We got there and it was closed. NOT open for lunch. Very disappointed. We found another restaurant around the corner, not on Rue Mouffetard that was delightful and wonderfully busy and delicious. La Contrescape.
Thanks for the video and helping us find this area again (Rue de Montorgeuil) We were there 2013 and came across this street just by chance really, but of course the pics I took didn’t show clearly the name of a restaurant we were outside. I paused your video and took a pic and matched it to my Facebook pic 🤩 Coming back to Paris in September so will definitely go back. Enjoying your other videos 🤩 👍 many thanks.
I found this video incredibly helpful for my recent trip. These are the best streets to wander and meander with no agenda. Delightful. Thank you so much!
@Les Frenchies - have you made any gastronomic meal recommendations in and around Paris? I haven't seen any videos that I recall that specifically and not sure if your guide includes those or not? Thanks
I walked from the Pantheon to one of my the restaurants you recommended. It was in the afternoon but no one was there, so I decided to go to a busier place not so far away. The online Google reviews were better. I just don't like going to a place with empty seats by myself. Anyways. It's a learning by experience thing I guess
@@LesFrenchiesTravel I’m a lot of fun and am a great cook 👩🍳 Lebanese food is my speciality - hope to meet up with you for a glass of bubbles then next time I’m in Paris
This is a fantastic video. I am in Paris for one short week and I went to Bouillon Pigalle based on your recommendation and had a delicious meal. I plan to visit one of the other streets you recommend this weekend. Thank you so much.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel You had me freaked out for a second, in one of my novels I have a couple eating at Bouillon Chartier and I thought I must have screwed up the location... 😅
Walked up all these streets over the last couple of days,and ate in the Florida (restaurant with red flowers) in the background. A truly beautiful city!
O uso de apenas duas espécies de plantas em um gramado bem aparado mostra como o uso inteligente do tom e da textura pode proporcionar tanto interesse quanto uma borda de floração.
As a Frenchman I must say that you beautifully enhance and highlight those vibrant streets in the heart of Paris! Great video!👍
Just returned from Paris. My 2nd visit and it was even better than the first! Now I feel like I can jump off the touristy track and enjoy Paris even more like a local my 3rd visit! Thanks for the great ideas. Love your content!

Thank you Les Frenchies - we are planning our trip and will walk in your foot steps.

La Procope is where Voltaire used to write while consuming 50 cups per day of a coffee/chocolate mixture.
And Les Deux Magots was a hangout at various points for Oscar Wilde, Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus, André Gide, Jacques Prévert, Jean Giraudoux, André Breton, Ernest Hemingway, and Pablo Picasso.
you're absolutly right, the chocolate and coffee at that time was so new....
Always looking forward to your videos. Thanks for all the options you provide us, for trip to Paris in June.
It's such a treat every time you post a new video. Lovely 🤗

I just want to go to Paris to sit at a streetside table. Are there any rules? Do you have any suggestions? I will probably be by myself.
Also, I would probably only drink cafe au lait or a coke. Maybe something light to eat.
