La Fromagerie - Beautiful cheese

TLDR; a good fromagerie to get some cheese along with some meats/fruits from other shops and have…read moreyourself a picnic and champ de mars. i recommend having an idea of what cheese you want to purchase, or at least the type, because the employee seemed impatient with us while we were deciding. my friend and i decided to walk down rue cler to pick up food for our quintessential eiffel tower picnic. we ended up purchasing two types of cheese for our lunch, as well as some meats, quiche, and grapes from other shops (see my other reviews). // store, service // this shop seems to be widely regarded as the main fromagerie in the area. they have a wide assortment of cheeses to choose from. i am not too knowledgeable when it comes to cheese, so i cannot compare prices with other shops, but the cheese seemed to be good quality. we wanted to get recommendations from an employee since we weren't sure what would go best with our meats and grapes. the employee who helped us said comte was the most popular french cheese and gave us a small sample. when you decide what you want, you guide the employee to cut a desired portion and then pay for it. we asked for other recommendations, but the employee was fairly impatient with us and said he didn't know what to tell us. it felt like he was also rushing us to pick and order something, which was not the best feeling (it honestly rushed us in ordering less, whereas if he treated us better we would have ordered more). maybe it's because the language barrier or we were clearly tourists, but he seemed irritated that we asked him for recommendations. // comte and brie cheese // we ended up getting a slice of comte and a slice of brie. the comte is sweet (easy to slice) and we really liked it with our baguette and meats. the brie was creamier (easy to spread on bread). two small slices came out to around 3-4 euros.

Beautiful selection of cheese, patient staff willing to help an American tourist with no knowledge…read moreof the French language! I purchased some delicious saucisson & asked nicely to have it sliced since I would not be able to cut it in the hotel room. I was very grateful for that, & later purchased a baguette to take everything back to the hotel. Stopped my the grocery store & also bought some white wine. So far, I'm enjoying this visit in France & definitely will need to visit again. A lot to see and not enough time!!

The most life- changing experience with French cuisine. This is what French culinary dreams are…read moremade of. Get the appetizer grilled foie gras with side of greens, you won't regret it. The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

This place was a huge letdown. They had a cute little artisanal market on the front left of the…read morerestaurant. They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.
