Le Petit Cler, rue de Cler 29
L’Éclair, rue de Cler 32
La Cremerie, rue de Cler 38
Gusto Italia, rue de la Grenelle 199
Best of Paris is that all houses are wonderful. So you end up kicking shattered. You’re walking and you can never stop you, always gives the impression that the street is still interesting to see. One after another all the apples and their buildings are beautiful. So occasionally, you can not continue and will need as desperate for a place to sit and rest.
In the rue Cler, a small pedestrian street near Los Invalides, you can grab a beer or a snack before or after dinner. You have the L’Eclair or Petit Cler, although usually full, or the terrace of La Cremerie stoves where rare are those who do not smoke.
L’Eclair: fine wine from the house, with three price levels: low cost, eco and business. 3.30, 4.10 and € 5.90 the cup.
If you have seen the Eiffel tower from Trocadero just at dusk to illuminate it, a good plan is to take a 10min walk up here, have a glass of wine and then go to dinner at any of the restaurants you will find in the rue de Grenelle. The best option an Italian Gusto Italia, at No. 199 rue Grenelle. Fantastic their pizzas (9-14 €) and also good pasta with sauces always (10-14 €).

Above all, at the junction with Rue Joseph de Maistre, but the finding will go in different neighborhoods.
This chain of boulangeries, cafes deserves a separate post. Few could believe that a chain of bakeries could become a phenomenon, but it certainly is. And not for the marketing, also because all their decorations one would take them home to make the kitchen of your dreams. But by how well you eat. Finally seems to come to southern Europe, because so far only in France, Belgium and some Scandinavian country could enjoy.
We already have clear. Whenever we see one near breakfast there. I do not know if you thought so or chance, but like the idea of Starbucks was to have your living room in the middle of Manhattan, Le Pain Quotidiane is breakfast in the kitchen of the house mountain with which many of us dream the day we win the lottery (though never let’s play …).
Petit déjeuner: croissants, pain de blé, baguette, fruit juice and drink for € 9.90.
Brunch: normal or royale for 23 € or 26 €.
If not, ask directly the pastries you prefer to (from 2.50 to 3 €) and drink (from 2.50 to 5 €).

One of the many streets worth strolling in Paris, the rue Montorgueil. In the center above Les Halles, is a pedestrian street with a friendly atmosphere. Places to buy cheese, delicatessens, the occasional restaurant and many other cafes. If you’ve wanted to take a break or, if you have pressed the cold and want to warm you we recommend the Cafe du Centre. Although it is a chain it would still be a good site, with background music which accompanies packed but just enough to find the time month. Coffee, tea, beer and house wine at a good price and good temperature, so you can serve it warm with a little cinnamon, a classic in Paris.

It is impossible to prove all but among those who were able to eat and what counts people who usually come here, there are two that are palm sticks or better:
Yasube and the You, both next to each other and at No. 11 rue Sainte Anne.

Arnaud Delmontel, rue des Martyrs 39
Eric Kayser, 14 rue Monge
As always happens with these things, each year saw the list of turn with the best croissants in town. The pity is that many of them are in the suburbs or near the periferic. But one falls in the middle and, if not, you always have the classics, famous among all Parisians.
One of our favorites is the Yhuel boulangerie on Rue Jean Lantier 11, halfway between the Louvre and the Hotel de Ville (care barely see the name on the outside). Ask Acordaros of butter (beurre)! For just a euro, you’ll see more than one get two … And if you are tired you can sit down for a leisurely coffee. In that case, try the hot and cheese croissant!
But our winner for the best croissant in Paris is the Delmontel Arnaud, on rue des Martyrs 39, below the Boulevard de Clichy. Crispy on the outside, soft inside, delicious to eat. Just stroll past the smell and is one of those that forces you to enter. No wonder Delmontel was the winner for the best baguette in 2007.
Even if you are by the Latin Quarter, do not hesitate to get close to try the Eric Kayser on Rue Monge 14 and then you will not know who to give the gold medal …
Here you can see the list of winners of the 2012 best croissants!

Arnaud Delmontel, rue des Martyrs 39
Each year the council makes a contest awarded € 4,000 to see that boulangerie makes the best baguette in Paris. Impossible to pick a winner but a district: Montmartre. Or even a street, the rue des Abbesses. Here you will find several of which have appeared in the top ten several times in recent years: Le Grenier à Pain or Alexine.
Or the Coquelicot, at number 24. Below you will see people queue to be the baguette.Y if you want to sit a while or even breakfast, they have tables inside, and if you see full do not worry because on the top floor have more.
There is a breakfast to remember the rest of your life, but the place is very cute and if you like coffee in commercial quantities here ye will not thirsty. Pray Energie formula, coffee, chocolate or tea, with half baguette and butter and jam spreads (5.5 €). Or you can try the pie of the house, the tranche de grand-mère brioche (brioche slice of Grandma’s), the same formula as before but is called Petit dej’Vitalité (€ 4.80). You will return to feel like a children drinking coffee from a bole so great that you will be as if you were small.
Also close to the rue des Abbesses, down the Rue des Martyrs have La Flute de Pain, the “flute earn” their specialty worth trying to have a different flavor twist. But without doubt, the best is to Demontel, Martyrs in the same street but a little below. Their baguette and croissants are the best of all Paris, but that we tell you in another post.
For if when you desire to put you tighten a baguette under his arm, Montmartre you far away, in the middle above Les Halles, curiously Montmartre street have the boulangerie Regis. Winners of a lot of awards for best baguette, make this clear teaching all his glasses. Or on rue des Petits Carreaux, the continuation of the rue Montorgueil, near the top of all you have the craft Eric Kayser boulangerie, where it is normal to queue to get on the road to take a baguette under his arm (the original is in the pastry 14 rue Monge in the Latin Quarter).
In any case, the truth is that almost all the baguettes are boulangeries death. Remember, only order the “traditional”, which is the best.

If after seeing the Sacre-Coeur are in the main square charismatic throughout Paris, Place du Tertre, looking for the famous painters and artists among hordes of tourists and hunger squeezes you, do not fall into the trap of sit on the terraces in the around. As much get off the corner of the right to the lookout and there you have a corner with a bit of charm at least.
And if not, the best is the Tutti Sensi on rue Norvins 14, just behind Sacre Coeur before reaching the Place du Tertre. Do not miss it. You will see a line of people waiting for some of his famous Italian salsicha sandwiches, actually a sausage as Madna god. For € 7 eat two of a sandwich.
More recommended restaurants in Paris Other recommended restaurants in FranceL’estaminet, rue de Bretagne 39 (in the Marche des enfants rouge)
No city in the world that boasts where fashion is not brunch. To see when the appetizer arrived in Barcelona, the afterwork ideal for those not wanting to get home and not having a cat or who cherish. For now we have to settle with streets such as Carrer Parlament and have brunch only sites. Paris is no exception and everywhere you look you will see posters with a “formula brunch”. If you will not itch and go somewhere authentic brunch, L’Estaminet is your place, within their own Le marche des enfants rouge, the red children’s market, named for the former orphanage that was next to where the uniform children was red.
L’estaminet is a nice corner with tables of colors recalling the food-market of London. Until 12pm you can take a petit déjeuner by € 8.50, coffee and apple juice over medium croissant and baguette to eat with butter and jam lovely. And from then on the weekends you have the traditional brunch for 20 € (with sausages) and fish for 22 € (with salmon and herring), pick to taste but I recommend the second!
If you search online where to have brunch in Paris is easy it comes out an article in El Pais talking Catz on rue Rodier 57. So successful are having to only open from 11.00 to 15.00 h. Yes, the weekends are stretched to 17.00 h. However, we recommend it. For € 26 per head one expects much more, especially to go out in the Country … The bakery is fantastic and also orange juice, though fair it can not be repeated. The rest, as much buffet “to Volunte” it is, is worth little. Apart from the small “chocolate” in the form of heart, the rest of cakes are nothing special and, instead, not a single sausage or cheese.
What’s more, the coffee not worth anything, something that is rare in Paris but if you expect to spend two hours eating breakfast seems like it should be the minimum.
