Ouvert de 11h à 7h du matin

Métros : Sentier, les Halles

The Pitch

A Moroccan restaurant-bar that is open day and night. Notably, they serve couscous and sandwiches at all hours.


The Meal
I got a merguez sausage sandwich for 5.50 euros.
I had two, so you can tell that the night up until then had been a bit difficult, but at least I got my food in 10 minutes, I got to chat with everyone. In brief, I found some understanding people. Don't understimate Le Bienvenu.

Honestly, I had already tried the couscous, but I find it's better for a pick-me-up sandwich. There's merguez, brochettes and more. I included it in my list of "My favorite sandwiches ", it may not be the best but it's consistent, and the fact that it's open late made me give it a place on the list.

Métros : Trinité, Notre Dame de Lorette

Located between Notre Dame de Lorette and Trinité, this bistrot serves good home-style cooking. Careful what you order - the sandwiches are quite expensive (a jambon de pays¹ and comté cheese sandwich was €6.50), but the dish of the day was €10 at the bar (€1 extra if eating in the dining room). There was a good atmosphere and I ate well. This type of serious bistrot is becoming a rare thing.

1: Jambon de pays: cured ham ; literally means country ham

The meal
Main dish (black pudding with mashed potatoes, a glass of wine (Minervois Léocadie), coffee: €13.20

Hello!

I want to introduce you the video of "716/Le Vrai Paris with Jules Kim".
This jewelry designer from NYC who came especially to Paris for the fasion week promoting her own brand "bijules". Favourited by the biggest names (Beyoncé, Rihanna,...) she is the guest of Le Vrai Paris. B
ehind the wheel of the Classic Citroen 2CV, we drove to one of my favourite spots "Les Routiers", where it is easy going as much as friendly. Located in the 18th arrondissement, this restaurant is one of the two last ones featured in the famous "Guide des Relais Routiers" : traditional french cuisine, generously served without frills, and for a great price. A precious moment, typical fom Le Vrai Paris.
