8.6
69 rue des Gravilliers, Paris, Île-de-France

Varun S.Varun Shetty: The couscous dishes are large enough for 2 people. Tagines feed 1. The eggplant starter is cold, but tasty. And the cheese pastry starter is delicious.

Jardin des Tuileries (Place de la Concorde), Paris, Île-de-France
Art Museum · Tuileries · 219 tips and reviews

Varun S.Varun Shetty: An amazing collection of art: Picasso, Cezanne, Rodin, Matisse, Degas. And two rooms with Monet's giant water lily canvasses. Pound for pound (frame for frame?), perhaps the best museum in the world.

Falafel Restaurant · Hôtel-de-Ville · 495 tips and reviews

Varun S.Varun Shetty: €6 for 8 (!) falafel balls in a sandwich that ways about 45 pounds. The roasted eggplant is a nice touch. If you want any alterations to your order, you better be a fast talker.

7. Loustic

8.3
40 rue Chapon, Paris, Île-de-France
Coffee Shop · Temple · 168 tips and reviews

Varun S.Varun Shetty: Sleepy coffee shop. For €12 get yogurt and granola, a pain au chocolate, an orange juice, and a any one of their coffee drinks (the chai tea latte has maple syrup in it - yum).

(Château de Versailles)
Place d'Armes, Versailles, Île-de-France

7.9
Place Georges Pompidou, Paris, Île-de-France
French Restaurant · Hôtel-de-Ville · 186 tips and reviews

8.9
11 rue Grégoire de Tours, Paris, Île-de-France

7.6
9 carrefour de l'Odéon, Paris, Île-de-France
Bistro · Odéon · 169 tips and reviews

Varun S.Varun Shetty: A sandwich worthy of the name Monsieur. While peasants overburden their sandwiches with too much cheese, Le Comptoir finely toasts their bread, adds just enough creamy cheese and hits the spot.

Museum · Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois · 2288 tips and reviews

Varun S.Varun Shetty: You could spend many days here. OR just 90 minutes. Follow my plan and you'll see the highlights and walk past a lot of great stuff. Don't be that guy who looks defeated in the museum - trust me.
