I would NEVER go back there and other Paris, France Restaurant Reviews

Restaurant Name: Chez Clement

Sorry in advance for my English, I'm not an English mothertongue 'cause I am Italian. After a long walk across Paris my boyfriend and me were very, or let's say extremely, hungry but we nearly couldn't eat what we ordered. The food was bad, he ordered a tomato complete meal (entrée+pasta+dessert) composed by a small yellow-tomato salad, pasta with tomato sauce and a dessert with tomato; the pasta was overcooked and the sauce tasted worse than ketchup; I'm not "doing the picky" about the pasta because I'm Italian, in our opinion it was just bad. I ordered a dish with vegetables and they brought me raw vegetables cut and disguised like sushi. I generally like vegetables but when I ordered I didn't think they would be raw, otherwise I wouldn't have ordered them. Anyway I generally like raw vegetables too but those didn't taste good at all. That was the meal, that we obviously barely ate.

In our opinion not a single thing was good. I got sick that evening. Service was bad too, we believe waiters laughed at us (and not only). They said they could'n understand me. I don't think so. Actually I can speak French well and I understood perfectly what they said. We lifted from the table sick and angry, also because the bad experience had cost lots of Euros compared to the quality. This restaurant was recommended by my travel guide book which was paid 25€ (or 27€?) but after this experience I decided to write to the distributor of this guide. For us our meal turned into a long affair and gave us a reason to be upset. I would never recommend this restaurant and neither my boyfriend would. We could see another couple that went away from the restaurant angry because nobody hadn't taken their order for a long time. It's just our opinion over the matter but we generally eat well when we're abroad. We personally have another idea of what cuisine is and represents. And our idea is really far from that restaurant.
