Brothers David and Julien run this friendly spot with about 25 seats. The menu has a strong Breton (Atlantic coast) influence. That means dishes like duck breast with honey, lamb with prunes, and natural-tasting seafood crepes. I never say “no” to anything with cheese, especially the potatoes. It should be about 30-35 euros per person. Website: www.lebistrotdhenri.1001menus.com.
Café Constant. 139, rue St. Dominique, 7th arrondissement. Métro: École Militaire.
A casual and relatively inexpensive spot near the ET. Legendary Chef Christian Constant makes French food easy. Where else are you going to get dishes like tartare of oysters, seabass and salmon seasoned with ginger and lemon created by a Michelin-starred chef? Or how about veal cutlet from the Basque country with white Tarbais beans? I always have room for the dreamy Île Flotante for dessert. One of my top picks. About €100 for two.
