My best secret spots in Paris: a must to visit absolutely !!!

1. Le Saut du Loup


Museums are generally diurnal destinations, places to discover who receive their guests during the day and politely dismiss well before dusk. The exception that proves the rule: the Saut du Loup. Nestled in the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, this restaurant will bend over backwards to affriander Parisians after nightfall: nicely decorated, terrace views of the Tuileries, Shakera bar with two or four sophisticated cocktails before bedtime ...

The finish of the mojito is always an excellent criterion for judging the quality of a harbor. And the Saut du Loup pass the test well: not too sweet, not too sour either, as soon as the rum and lime hit the taste buds, fresh mint and sugar rush to cushion the fall. A treat.

Meanwhile, the rear of the illustrious clients are pulling their few chairs design, wildly eclectic styles (Art Deco oblige), scattered here and there. So many pinches of fantasy came within an otherwise bland spice, a bit of a cleaning maniac.

2. Le Patio Opera
A great place near Opera? Great for getting together with friends after work.

You can enjoy the interior court that very nicely. It's a little piece of freshness that would almost make us forget that outside is "hell" urban boulevards, the Galeries Lafayette and a monument to architecture disproportionate.

3. Shop Miyakodori 

Miyakodori is installed at an impasse in deserted back from the bustle of the Rue Saint-Antoine, but you can not miss its front royal blue. The shelves of the tiny craft shop are filled with Japanese traditional dishes, table linens and trinkets of all kinds. The fetish-object of M. Toshima, the master of the house? The "Maneki Neko": this lucky cat is hypermignon declined in all forms: teapots, piggy banks, punching or ask chopsticks. Mon to Sat, 12 am-19 pm. April 28 to May 7: 15 am-19 pm.

6. Chez Bertrand

7.Sunday night dinners at Jim Haynes 

Here an American who did not wait Meetic and social networks to play the troublemakers to dine in circles. Since the 1980s, Jim Haynes, very invested in the AC and the underground culture of the 1970s, received on Sunday night in his former studio of Alesia garden. Its Sunday Dinner (83, rue de la Tombe-Issoire 75014 Paris) and rounded up a motley crowd of all ages and all genres that sets the tone more or less crazy evening. Each guest must also bring his mite (approx. € 25) to share menu and cellar with total strangers until recently. Are you interested?

8. At the Cafe of house architecture 

Incredibly peaceful, two cars of the Gare de l'Est, this cafe contains a lovely terrace, hidden within the walls of the former convent of the Recollets (which now the House architecture). A haven for cooling off around the well and the great old tree planted by Franciscan monks and today natural parasol.

9. Le Bistro des Dames 

We would like to call it the "best kept secret in the neighborhood." Between the Place Clichy Batignolles and behind the facade of a lambda bistro lies a garden patio with bamboo, ivy, plane trees and garlands of lanterns. No reservations, this little green spot almost invisible from the street wins.

10. Canteen of the House of Armenian culture 

It lurks in a pretty courtyard of the ninth but there is no need to eat where sesame. The welcome is warm, the family kitchen, the tables occupied by regulars - often members of Armenian associations - which are found there. Dish of the day (stuffed eggplant or chicken skewers, 8 €), small crescent stuffed for dessert, it's good-natured and full of kindness, in a quaint dining room, converted into a dining hall for large.

11. Ô Chateau 

For almost three months, the winemakers of O Chateau remains elected to the Hotel des Vins. It does not just happen. The venue offers three tasting rooms with cozy decor, privatized free, from 6-7 people. For the record, this mansion, built in the 1640s belonged to Madame de Pompadour. In the eighteenth century, Marie-Louise Dupin, grandmother of George Sand, was a salon frequented, among others, Voltaire and Rousseau.

12. The Divette Montmartre 

The most rock'n'roll bar in Paris! Inside, the walls and floor to ceiling, displays the largest European collection of picture discs, the vinyl decorated with images of 78s and collectors of Stones and the Strokes. Amazing!

13. The private library of Jean-François Trap 

The two-star chef opens the door to his room-library staff, to serve a gourmet dinner every night of the week. In the midst of his collection of guides and other fine cookbooks, a light wood table hosts an intimate up to six guests. From 200 € per person.

14.A la Petite Chaise 

Like many Parisians, we often zap our restaurants "historic". Less media attention than the Procope or La Tour d'Argent, La Petite Chaise is not least the oldest table in the capital. It was founded in 1680, during the reign of Louis XIV, in a building dating itself early seventeenth. Among the people who have had their napkin include jumble Brillat-Savarin, Vidocq, Musset, George Sand, Toulouse Lautrec, Colette and some François Mitterrand, then a student at Sciences Po school nearby.

Stashed in the courtyard of St. Paul Village, a few tables beloved of young women in flower in search of healthy food, fresh and light, half-raw, partially cooked.
