Planning Paris in Christmas 🎄 😍 Can't wait. I will take the advice for lunch on the very first day. I'm staying at a hotel near Eiffel Tower, so will be perfect.
@@simplyhadassah, I can’t remember where you ate now and I’m not going to go back and watch the video, but for locals in Paris, they would be considered average at best. Some good bistros for example are: 1. Le Bon Georges 2. Les Arlots 3. Café des Ministères 4. Bistrot Paul Bert In my opinion, if you want a real French experience, you need to go to a good lively bistro. Those are some of the best for food. There are also about 15 one-star restaurants where you can have a three or four course lunch and try more elevated gastronomy for about €40 per person (aperitif and wine not included of course). The idea is that while everyone thinks Paris is so expensive, it doesn’t have to be and the main reason people have this impression is because they are going to tourist restaurants where they’re overpaying. There are many more world class fine dining restaurants, but there is no point in discussing them without knowing a budget because they can be generally very expensive.
@@LeMagnifiqueDoubleAgent-cj4zoI hear your point. Trying authentic food and see more of the local Parisians would be ideal. Thank you for clarifying and for the suggestions. Hopefully on my next visit, I'll be able to try some of those places.
