Il Piccolino
Great italian restaurant, run by an adorable italian man.
My favorite lunch spot, close to my office. I recommend their carpaccio, served with salad or delectable fries.

Cosy american style burger joint, with a terrace (one out of three Schwart's in Paris). I recommend the avocado burger, or the bearneise burger (a special they don't always have).
