Chicken. Did you…read moreknow that it took until the 1920's to figure out how to tell the sex of a baby chicken? Before that all the chickens were raised until they were 4-6 weeks old and then the males were killed because they're not laying eggs and their meat is too dry and tough for nuggets. In the mid 20's someone in Japan figured out that if one would ever so softly and quickly squeeze a baby chick, its intestines would momentarily turn around and show a cloaca, a small external orifice that birds have, which could be analysed to tell if it was a boy or a girl. This discovery gave birth to the profession of a "chicken sexer". To become a chicken sexer one has to get in and undergo a rigorous training in the Zen Nippon school in Nagoya, the only permanent school for the purpose. What is very curios in the process of "sexing chickens", that only in 20% of the cases the chicken sexer can actually point out why he made his choice - for the rest of the time the chicken sexer goes with his intuition and experience. Most of the time they cannot tell exactly why this ass of a chicken is a boy or a girl. It's pure intuition and unconscious neural pathways. Nowadays, with new alternative sexing methods having been invented, only few students graduate from Zen Nippon school each year. However, the pay remains very good - a chicken sexer can make up to 15'000 € a month and you get to travel the world as well. Churrasquera Galo is a Portuguese cantine in 9th, in which a 1/2 chicken with rice (that has flavour), fries and few green things costs 10 €. They also make other dishes with meat, fish and octopus, but I go there for the best Portuguese chicken in town.

*************3.5***********************…read more It was our last nite in Paris so we wanted eat something good but local. We walked around forever trying to decided where and what to eat. We walked by this place and it was PACK w/local so we look over the menu and decided to give this a try. It wasn't French food but I didn't mind because we been eating so much french food that I was a little relief hehe. The place was known for their roasted chicken so we decided to get 2 plates of them which include french fries, salad, rice. We also order a bottle of red wines which want perfect with our meal and after that I order couple of Portugal beer which I never try before. Overall it was a good meals and I like it here but it remind me alittle of El Pollo back in the States. hehehe

A colleague of mine, who is Greek, recommended this place. The dishes taste homey, with a touch of…read moreelegance. Our favorites: * Kalamaria ghemista (squid stuffed with small vegetables, spinach, and rice) * Oktapodi sto tigani (pan-fried octopus with tomatoes and parsley) * Souvlaki kotopoulo (chicken souvlaki) * Moussaka (eggplant and lamb casserole) * Kataifi (vermicelli-like pastry) The restaurant space is pretty small though. We had a table for five, in a space that is ideal for three or four. We ordered many dishes, and they barely fit on the table. We could only take about two dishes at a time. The back of my chair was butting up against the next table. The bathroom setup is awkward (1 star off). To enter the bathroom, you have to squeeze by a table with guests enjoying their dinner, go up a few steps, and enter an area with a urinal. The women's bathroom is located past the urinal, i.e. women need to walk past the urinal in order to use the toilet. After finishing using the toilet, walking back to my table, I was crossing my fingers that I wouldn't accidentally walk past someone using the urinal...

It was very good- a little like the sauce/meat of spaghetti but with veggies and a pastry around it. (Sorry for my very Caucasian connection). I thought it was very good (much better than spaghetti, but you get my drift). And dessert was something "les cheveux des anges " (angel hair) with honey and nuts- very good, I don't remember the name.

I went here over lunch one day and was surprised to see a queue of people wrapped around the corner from the door. Honestly I was shocked to see both businessmen and women as well as teenagers all lined up to get one of these tasty sandwiches. The options are pretty standard, you can choose one of one type of meat, that would be chicken. Then you've got the standard salad, tomato and onion. I took everything and then paid and left. The sandwich itself was excellent, they are using the real Greek pita bread as well as some special yogurt which has to come from Greece. The meat also tasted exactly like you'll find on the islands or the mainland. Overall I'm very impressed and glad I had a chance to eat here.

The Saganaki was delicious as always. Delicious hummus and baba-ghanoush. Everything was fresh, especially the tabouleh and the menu's were in English which was very helpful for us as tourists. The wait staff didn't speak English very well, but we managed to get by. They were very friendly and polite. Cute little neighborhood/area it's located in. Had we gone a little earlier we would've explored more, but it got dark quick and most establishments including the patissiere near by, were already closed.

I would recommend getting Le Formule à 14.30€. An incredible deal for the amount of delicious food. Their soups are delicious and I loved their pesto sauce (which, even though not listed, they will let you get with the formula). Fromage Blanc with honey and raisins was the perfect desert after a big meal, and you get to finish with coffee or tea. I never found a better deal in a formule for quality and quantity in my 5 months in Paris and I went here several times, particularly when I had hungry friends visiting. I also came once with a big group, and they had a lovely table reserved for us downstairs--would recommend for a party of 10+, with a reservation of course.
