Tartempion restaurant is located in Montmartre on Rue du Mont Cenis which is just off the famous Place du Tertre. It’s one of the many restaurants which are in the area and around the square. Like many occasions during short Paris breaks when there’s not much time to choose, it can be difficult to decide where to eat from the many options available. In any case, I’d definitely recommend Tartempion, especially if you like duck salad.which is what I ordered. It’s a combination of duck leg and smoked duck served with fresh salad, bread and washed down with a nice glass of wine. I’ll be back!

Restaurant VAT cut boosts Paris breaks
July 2nd, 2009 · 1 Comment · paris-breaks, restaurants
As of 1st July 2009, VAT on all restaurants and cafes in France has been cut from 19.6 per cent to 5.5 per cent, a huge reduction leading to big savings for consumers. This translates into a saving of approximately 10 per cent when passed onto customers, meaning a meal typically costing €15 (£13) will be reduced to around €13.20 (£11.40).

The move aims to boost consumer spending in the busy summer period throughout France and attract more visitors on Paris breaks from the UK, offsetting the slightly weaker Pound Sterling against the Euro.

Some good restaurants in Paris
October 21st, 2008 · No Comments · paris-breaks, restaurants
These are some suggestions which were submitted for the Paris Breaks blog some time ago.
Restaurants for Paris Breaks
- Macéo – 15 rue des Petits Champs, 1st arrondissement (metro Bourse or Quatre Septembre line 3, line 14 Pyramides), typical french cuisine, classy surroundings, top chef – lunch menu 30+ €, à la carte 15-25€ main course
- Willi’s Wine Bar – 13 rue des Petits Champs (next door to Macéo), good option for a lunch around 20€ with good quality products prepared by 2 chefs in a tiny kitchen
- l’Abadache – 89 rue le mercier, 17th arrondissement (metro Brochant line 13), french owner, english wife, traditional french food with an english twist (some cheeses and other influences), kitchen visible from the restaurant so you can see what’s going on, good products, interesting combinations
- Rose Bakery – 46 rue des Martyrs, 9th arrondissement (metro Notre Dame de Lorette or Saint Georges, line 12), only for lunch, english-french owner, haven’t been myself but read good things on the web
- Le Zephyr – decent food (especially beef and shell fish – daily deliveries), often imaginative presentation (particularly in the evening), some lovely puddings (esp. “Le Tour du Monde”, a chocolate fiesta of different textures !), cool and trendy bar in a good location. metro Jourdain, 11th Arrondissement.
- La Fontaine Gaillon – Place Gaillon, 2nd arrondissement (I think), simple, classic fish restaurant with daily deliveries and thus very fresh fish. Relatively expensive (£45 midday / £80 evening) metro “4 Septembre” or “Bourse”
- “Avant Goût” 26 rue Bobillot, 13th Arrondissement – look it up on the web, haven’t been there myself, but my wife has been many times and always raves about it.
- “Le Chapeau Melon”, 92, r. Rébeval, 19th arrondissement (my patch !), m° Pyrénées / Belleville – tiny restaurant which is a wine merchant during the day. The chef cooks the same for everyone, you sit down and wait for your food to arrive (4 courses for 28€- if you want a pudding, it’s 5 courses and 6€ extra). Original and absolutely fresh since it changes every day.
