Shall I compare thee to a California's Erewhon?…read more Y'all know I can be wowed by a fabulous grocery store. This one is surely opulent, but crowded out the wazoo. The North American section made me giggle. I grabbed some fancy French mustards and cookies to bring home for friends and family. Unsure if any locals actually come here or if it's ALL tourists. The layout was extremely confusing to me. Now, I'm sure there are some simply fantastic elements to this store that evaded me due to the sea of people inside. But, I think Erewhon had more going for it. Artistic, clean, bountiful displays of produce. More organization, better lighting, etc. I felt like I could actually see the products at Erewhon, whereas here I was fighting with a lot of noise.

Worth the wait! Waited for only about 30 minutes for this lunch spot and it was well worth the…read morewait! We had no idea what the menu said or what to get and the worker was so sweet and helped explain all of the options and what the favorites were. Small little shop, only allows 1 group at a time which honestly makes you feel like rushed/judged. We went with 2 types, one cooked and one curated meat and the one with Brie cheese and one with truffle cheese. Absolutely phenomenal and would recommend if youre in pairs!

We grab the table on the left just outside. It's great to people watch. They have a decent happy hour for pints of lager and this time we got a Nutella crepe and a shot of the absinthe.

We split a raclette sandwich and it was really good. It was an experience watching him heat the cheese and melted it directly onto the sandwich which was on a fresh baguette. It's very close to the tertre de arte park. There's no shortage of cafés and restaurants in this area but this one is great for Takeaway there's two very small tables to sit at and it's better to just eat somewhere else. I would definitely come back

Little Davoli is the restaurant right across the street for sit down dining. The food ordered is brought over covered from Davoli when ready. We started off with Greek salad and a bruscetta appetizer. Both were fresh and delicious. For entrees we chose the spaghetti alla carbonara and the spaghetti alla Bolognese. The pasta in both dishes was undercooked; no where near the al dente stage. Neither dish was very flavorful, although the serving size was decent. Casual, small, restaurant which was very busy. Service was fine.

The mushroom pappardelle was tasteless and lacked flavor. The mushroom risotto was bland AF. The pasta was not good. The risotto was not good. The servers were rushed and borderline rude.

We stopped by this place because it has various authentic French small bites, sausages, meat loaves, seafood salad etc. I ordered the Salmon bites, octopus salad, mini French cream puffs (??) not sure what they called in English but they are super good. Too bad we are leaving tomorrow but I will definitely come back to this area when I come visit in the future. The business hour is from 9 am sharp to 7 pm sharp. Not a min late or early.

We had foie gras (their specialty) very delicious, escargot, smoked salmon salad, french onion soup, and plenty of baguette. Helpful servers speak English well, they were quite patient and friendly. All the food we had was eye-opening, in both taste and presentation. We arrived 30 minutes before the kitchen closed, with several groups in front of us, but they kept us apprised of the situation and prepared a place for us outside as soon as it was available. We placed our order and the food arrived quickly; in the meantime several more diners came by and were seated for wine and desserts. It was fun for people-watching at such a late hour as many groups and couples were still out and about. While waiting to be seated, we had a chance to peruse the deli area with many varied terrines and foie gras, pickles, smoked salmon, caviar and wines. I wish I was more knowledgeable about their products, but I was amazed that my French from high school and college (40 years ago!) held up as well as it did!

This way you can get what you really came for without having to carry it around while shopping. Once outside one can go from window to window looking at the Christmas displays. This is a great place to sample different items such as 10 different flavors of eclairs. How can you give this less than 5 stars? You really can't. I love this place.
