Au Bourguignon du Marais
We conclude this short tour among the restaurants of the Marais arriving at the Bourguignon du Marais. It is a place with atmosphere and class, not too big – as often happens in Paris – which offers dishes from the French tradition. The name says it: the Boeuf Bourguignon is the flag of the place and many say that it is among the best in the city. There is also a certain choice of fish and one extensive wine list. The prices are absolutely normal but for lunch there is also a very affordable fixed price menu.
