  • It is more difficult to eat badly in Paris than in many cities, but there are places which look for a fast profit at the expense of the tourist who will never return. Avoid signs that say “Menu Touristique ” – they may be fine, but places that attract local people are far better.

    At Least Do This: Most restaurants have several set menus (menu prix-fixe ), as well as à la carte , from which you order separate dishes. By law, menus must be displayed outside the restaurant. Set menus, which may include wine, are usually excellent value, the cheapest one often costs as little as €7.00.

     Your museum tips are very useful. As you know such tips are the peak of our interests on VT. Unfortunately, we have never been to Paris, and we will not for at least a year.
