French Identity

To dine out on a restaurant is part of the French culture, so we suggest that you al need to follow that custom! Simple or fancy - that's the first question you need to ask yourself, because France has everything; from the most simple to the most extra ordinary and from the very cheapest to the most expensive you could ever imagine.

But irrespective of price range you can find a great kitchen, where the food is cooked with a lot of passion and care. One heads-up is that the typically tourists places are more careless than the ones that more for the Parisian people. If you don't want the check to become more expensive than you plan you need to stay to the offered menu, because a lot of places have some dishes a side from the menu and those are probably the more expensive ones; special fish, clam or seafood of today etc.

Many of the wine brands on the restaurant wine list are very good and then also very expensive but on the non-top-class restaurants you can almost always find the house wine, and don't be surprised if that's more expensive than the water. The French has their lunch between 1 and 3 pm and their dinner from 8.30 and late.

There are a couple of different kinds of restaurants in France and we are now going to present them and explain the difference and then give you some names of good restaurants in Paris. And if you are interested in some of them we have all the addresses here so please come and ask for them after the presentation.

Maria Sofia

Boulangeri Bistro

Creperi Brasserie

Cafй

Cafй is a type of a restaurant, often with an enclosed or outdoor section extending onto the sidewalk, where meals are served. They are generally only serving coffee and other beverages, except in some cases were they also serve meals but this is generally not considered their main trade.

The name cafй comes from the name of coffee itself and is French from the beginning but were adopted by the English-speaking countries in the late 19th century. Today it's a global functioning world except maybe for the Netherlands, where a cafй is an establishment that's sells liquor and a coffee shop sells soft drugs.

Restaurang

Then finally we have the restaurant itself. A restaurant is a more elegant dining place, often with white tablecloth and posh waiters. You probably need to make reservations in advance.

Ok, now we are going to give you some Parisian restaurants and we divided them into four groups; Traditional French, Top Class, Trendy and finally some Tea Salons.
