The tables, tha chairs, the font on the awning... Yes it looks like a typical Paris café, but precisely it's a little bit too perfect to be true... Not to mention the name of the place "Home in Paris", which does not exactly sound French to me LOL! I investigated a little more and found out that this restaurant is managed by 3 people, including Guillaume Gomez, who is a deputy Chef at l’Élysée (the home of the French presidents). I don't know if it's good or bad news (I never ate at l'Elysée LOL), but now I feel like trying it (the restaurant I mean...)! BTW, it's at 17 avenue de la Motte Piquet, just by the rue Cler.
Hope you'll report back again after you try this place. The lone customer looks like he may be planning to stay a while. :~}
ReplyDeleteWhen I travel I'm trying so hard to be "away" that I avoid anything that smacks of home. But let us know if it's good. I can be flexible.
ReplyDeleteI find quality to be inversely proportional to the number of paying customers!

ReplyDeleteIf you weren't so proud, you would have accepted Carla's invitation to dinner at l'Elysee. I told you to not to shun them, but you just wouldn't listen. These French, what can you do?
ReplyDeleteLet us know if you eat at Home In Paris.
Well, he attained the rank of: Meilleur Ouvrier de France at the age of 25....impressive to say the least. The place looks beautiful, and the prices:
ReplyDelete17,00 € Formule express déjeuner (E+P+café)
23,00 € Formule expresse dîner (E+P+café)
30,00 € Brunch
Is VERY reasonable for a
- Brasserie
- Paris 7th
- Tour Eiffel / Invalides!
Yet again English encroaches on French culture under the guise of 'coolness'. But how 'cool' is English on the streets of Paris? I'm not so sure...
ReplyDeleteIt's very French-looking. Or what one would imagine as a French bistro. It is quite lovely. Let us know how it is, Eric! :)
ReplyDeletei hope it just opened...a lonely diner doesn't look to well for business!
ReplyDeleteHome in Paris just doesn't that ring to it, know what I mean?
ReplyDeleteI understand what you're saying, Sab. Here in the states, a French name can give cachet.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Petrea's first comment.When I'm over there,the last thing that I want to see is anything that reminds me of home.
ReplyDeleteAs a neighbour, I recommand the restaurant 'Pain et Chocolat' across the street, which much more typical than 'home in Paris'.
