I love Paris in the springtime.
I love Paris in the fall.
I love Paris in the winter when it drizzles.
I love Paris in the summer when it sizzles.
I love Paris every moment,
Every moment of the year.
I love Paris. Why, oh why, do I love Paris?

Cole Porter sang these words, finishing with &quot;because my love is here&quot;. But, your love does not have to be there to love Paris. Of course, that is a bonus, but with all that Paris has to offer, you love Paris as it is, especially for its food.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Food requires no explanation or introduction when speaking about Paris. It is everywhere. It is local and worldly; it is small and big, traditional and modern. It is available in a vast array of forms and shapes, but, as always, some places just like to stand out, and they do.&nbsp;

Loved and appreciated by locals (you have to book this place in advance), Le Bon Georges is on top of my list of Paris restaurants if I want to enjoy a relaxed atmosphere, yet unforgettable event, wines from the world-renowned wine list, seasonal and local produce, and food I will never forget, having learned where it comes from as all the suppliers are noted on the board. This bistro is a place that has unstoppable French charm, an exceptional feeling, excellence served with every dish, and a private dining room or place at the chef&#39;s table where you can see everything that is composed for you, making the experience at Le Bon Georges even more memorable. Truly stunning.&nbsp;

It might look very touristy and exaggerated, but, don&#39;t judge the man by his hat and enter the world of local produce and cuisine and simple, yet superbly prepared food, where natural and local wines are served in a chic interior one will not forget. And do have of the best Paris-Brests in the city, even if you think you don&#39;t want one. Home-made rillette, generous steaks, puree with sausage, seasonal fish, scrumptious steak tartare, and, yes, I&#39;ll tell you once again - one of the best Paris-Brests in Paris. A place to stop by for dinner, coffee and cake, or the daily lunch special that changes every day.

Located in the center of Paris, this place is still one where at lunchtime you will spot locals having their business or daily meal, where people greet staff as their friends, where food is absolutely divine, as is the interior. The menu is small with mostly traditional dishes. Foie gras, rillette, sardines, fries with aioli, p&acirc;t&eacute; en cro&ucirc;te, steak tartar, croque madame, and the list goes on. All made to perfection. Wine glasses are small, but the wines served are grand. Tables are small, portions generous, and food satisfies.&nbsp;

If you come alone, you will be squeezed in between tables with other people. As a bigger group, you will sit at your own table, but so close to others that it feels like the whole restaurant is a group of friends. And that&#39;s what is so charming about this restaurant. The menu, brought out on a blackboard, is simple, local, french, and seasonal. Their famous pork terrine and&nbsp;Paris-Brest (during&nbsp;cold seasons) is a must. And a glass of wine, bien s&ucirc;r. The terrine arrives with&nbsp;gougere, pickled gherkins, and a breadbasket. When the main dish arrives, you know this will be the last meal of the day, and when the dessert comes, the waiter might say &quot;bon courage&quot; (good luck), as you need it to finish something that good and pleasantly large. And then, when the espresso comes, it is complemented by a small and crunchy&nbsp;cannele&nbsp;(as if the Paris-Brest wasn&#39;t enough). The owner likes to walk around talking with the regulars and giving goodbye kisses.&nbsp;
