I don't often "leave" Paris (literally a 5 minute walk outside of the city) but when I do I usually eat at a friend or family members home. This time we tried a new restaurant, la QG, which recently opened on the place de la Marie. It was a pleasant surprise with the trendy industrial look mixed with a touch of what i would call grandma chic type couches and seats. The menu has a nice variety and a long lost of cocktails. I had the goat cheese salad which was nice and large. Most of the table had the ba bar burger-looked mighty fine- and a few ordered the various daily specials.
Because it was noon I had a cocktail, the Mango margarita. It says for two, which it is but I had it all for me... And sure glad I did. Yes, you can share it but you can also keep it for yourself and avoid having to order a second one after.
The desserts looked really good and large but instead we all order the cafe gourmand (my personal go to dessert). It always you to have coffee and sample 3 dessert, the chocolate mousse (pretty delish for a restaurant), a creme brûlée, and a large cannelé. The prive and service are good. Nice place and great when the sun is out on the terrace enjoy the good food and atmosphere. read more
