This is an old Les Halles bistro with gingham tablecloths, exposed beams, and a cash register that predates your parents. It once fed the market workers who unloaded produce all night, and the menu still leans on slow stews, tripe, and mutton with beans, served in copper pans. Tables sit shoulder to shoulder, so you'll know your neighbor's order by dessert. The Infatuation counts it among Paris's best bistros.
