Places to Eat
Isami One of the best Japanese restaurants in the city, but tiny so book ahead. Good choice of sushi. Le Fin Gourmet Excellent
bistro in a 17th-century building. Expect dishes such as scallops with
shallots, or veal and baked apples. Bustling at lunchtime, candlelit and
quieter in the evening. Spring American
chef Daniel Rose offers a no-choice daily menu created with fresh
ingredients from the market. Advance bookings are necessary. 6 rue Bailleul, 75001 01 45 96 05 72

tiny tea room with a witch-themed decor serves flavoured teas, rustic
tarts and what is surely the most potent hot chocolate in town. Brasserie de l’Ile St-Louis Wooden tables and a rustic look complement hearty Alsace fare such as Tripe in Reisling wine.
