Chez Marcel is a Lyonnais-style bouchon in Saint-Germain, where the manager plays piccolo for birthdays and waltzes with the waitresses before service gets going. Gingham tablecloths, shoulder-to-shoulder tables, and a free plate of saucisson sec sliced thin enough to read through set the tone. Expect rich pork-heavy classics, a gravy with real structural ambitions, and a cheese board that needs its own zip code.

Slow-cooked lamb's shoulder
“Order the slow-cooked lamb’s shoulder, which comes with a gravy thick and rich enough to pave a highway, pleasantly tempered by a glass of whatever red wine happens to be in the manager’s hand when he walks by.”
The Infatuation -
Vanilla millefeuille
“The daily specials on the chalkboard menu offer a slightly lighter touch, which might mean you have room for the cheese board the length of your wingspan or the vanilla millefeuille, assembled to order.”
