Le Rubis - Paris
Le Rubis is the best know wine bar in Paris, offering an extensive wine list centred mainly on the Beaujolais and Loire wines. Despite its rustic, slightly battered interior, it attracts serious businessmen and lawyers at lunch, and students and fashion folk at night. For lunch you can have typical bistrot meal like andouillette, bourguignon, jarret and boudin (10 et 12 €). The best time to visit Le Rubis is late in the afternoon when the streets are darkening and the regulars are installed at the bar, leaving the banquettes empty.
Editor's choice : Le Dauphin - Restaurant
Le Dauphin - Paris
After the famous Le Chateaubriand (next door) - Inaki Aizpitarte and Fred Peneau opened by the end of 2010 the “Le Dauphin” a tapas bar decorated with white marble by Rem Koolhaas (Pritzker 2000) and Clément Blanchet..
No surprise design is really astonishing .
Concept at Le Dauphin is to present big tapas called in Spain “rationes” like “terrine of mallard”, "tempura shrimp",“cevice of Shade-fish”, “risotto in its ink”, “velvety of sweet chestnut with foie gras”, “yellow Pollock à la plancha”…. It’s delicious and creative like they are used to..
Excellent wine selection. It’s a bit far from the city center, but trendy and fun by night time.. Worth to see!!
