In November 2010 French gastronomy was added to the UNESCO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage. You can fully enjoy French cuisine in Paris no matter what your budget is. Each French region has its own specialties (Auvergne, Corse, Bretagne…) and the capital reflects this variety.
And there's much more than French specialties on offer. Travellers can enjoy other tasty cuisines like Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Lebanese, North African, Greek, Spanish – the list could go on…
Decent restaurants are not concentrated in one area of the city. Very good places exist in every Parisian district.
Le Perchoir

Nestled in an industrial-looking building on the unassuming rue Crespin du Gast in the 11th, Le Perchoir is the kind of place that only Parisians in the know frequent. We all know that Paris doesn't have many rooftop bars and terraces that also whip up a great cocktail, which is why Le Perchoir was an immediate hit when it opened in 2013.

Located in an awesome spot at the top of the Parc de Belleville with a large terrasse, this cafe is a top place to go to on sunny days. The terrasse provides a great view of Paris, including the Eiffel Tower, and drinks are reasonably priced.

While I have nothing against the famous Ladurée macarons, when I first tasted Pierre Hermé macarons I immediately became addicted to this brand. Which brand is best is a hot topic amongst Parisians. I advise you to try both and then pick a side. I’d be very curious to know your opinion!

Note that the main Berthillon boutique is often crowded. The good news is that you can find their famous ice creams at partner shops like Nicolsen Chocolatier at 112 rue Mouffetard in the 5th district, and Smiths Bakery at 12 rue de Buci in the 6th. There's also a small Berthillon stand by the Saint-Louis Bridge leading to Notre Dame.

As it served as an enormous wine marketplace for more than a century, this place is full of history. The white stone wine storehouses of the "Cour St Emilion" are reminiscent of this era. For architecture lovers, you must see the buildings by renowned architects.

It’s not often you’ll find a place this big in the city! Its uniqueness also resides in its underground atmosphere, just like in Berlin or San Francisco. As you pass through the door, a long corridor leads you to two huge rooms where you can sit on recycled sofas and chairs with world music rocking the stereo. The entrance fee is up to you!

You can come here to eat and drink at the café-canteen, visit a urban farm, ask for advice or repair things in the workshop Chez REné, or just chill and enjoy a wide range of events. It's an ideal spot to relax after vintage shopping at the famous flea market nearby.

A small cave where Parisian students (and not so students) drink wine bottles in small glasses and eat cheese while dancing all night long on Ediath Piaf, Rock'n'roll or typical Jewish songs (the DJ is an old Jewish man)!! True authentic experience and proximity guaranteed ;) Agoraphobic do NOT go there.

With a toaster on your table and a host of sauces at your disposal, it feels as if you’re in a genuine American diner. A pleasant way to start the day is to order their delicious homemade pancakes (ask for the pancake of the day)! Their burgers are nice too, though I'm more fond of the €8 Burrito.

Pancakes topped with eggs, bacon, homemade Bourbon butter, and maple syrup – need I say more? Brunch is the star here with patrons lining up to get their pancake and Brûlerie de Belleville coffee fix as early as 9 am. Its location near the Canal Saint-Martin also makes for the perfect summer day.

The interiors are awe-inspiring, the food and drinks are delicious (though a bit pricey at times), there’s always new geeky art lining the hallways, and every now and then a local artist or director stops by for a signing session or to talk about their new project. If none of this convinces you, maybe the arcade table with classic games will.

Many Parisians who shop in Le Marais come to rue des Rosiers to eat falafel. As it's typically Middle Eastern, sometimes people are surprised that it can be found in the heart of Paris. One falafel will set you back about €6. The queue can be long but the service is quick.
