    No longer exists at this location. We found other spots nearby. Consider Cafe Madam. Lovely old…read moreneighborhood.

    Grand plans!!! We had grand plans!!!! You know what they said about the best laid plans of mice…read moreand men... they often go awry. This was our last night in Paris. We were going to hit the big time. We were going to head back to the hotel, change into some fancier duds, and go out with a bang! We were going somewhere fancy and probably spend too much money in the process. We got delayed at Disneyland Paris and our half day turned into a bit more than that. We got rained on. One of us got too excited shopping on Boulevard Haussman! (That wasn't me.) We forgot to pick up our take home chocolates @ Patrick Roger. (That was me.) We decided to take home a bunch of fresh gallettes from Poilane Bakery (That wasn't me.) And so on and so forth. If you're playing the home game... that's a lot of back and forth in Paris. We walked into PG's loaded with shopping bags and starving. I had fired up the old Yelp when we were at Poilane Bakery and the place that interested us most was PG's and one other nearby joint. We aimed ourselves in this direction and took off walking. Ultimately, we let our noses choose and our noses chose PG's Bar a Manger. Let me say that I love hamburgers, but hamburgers don't always love me. Sometimes they mess my stomach up in a bad way. I was going to be in the air for over 10 hours the following day, so I was hesitant to risk it. I wanted a burger so badly. BUT I also hate to be "that guy" who tries to warp the menu to his tastes, especially in France. I asked the server if I could get the Texas Ranger Burger with chicken instead. He offered to ask the chef. THE CHEF SAID YES! I was very pleased. My wife made her choice and got a Tartine. We both loved our meals. The food was incredibly fresh and the chef makes his own condiments, which were delicious. The food was wonderfully prepared and it was our biggest surprise of the entire trip in regards to meals. The chicken was tender and juicy. The toppings were SPOT ON. I can only imagine how awesome it would've been to have beef instead. I just couldn't risk it with the long flight. The chef actually came out (it's a tiny place, there were only the 2 of them working) and checked on us. He noticed my shame of pulling the caramelized onions off of my burger. He asked why I didn't ask for it without and I had to tell him the sad tale of how I love the TASTE that onions bring to food, but hate to EAT onions because of their mouth-feel. My wife gives me the stink eye for this sometimes, but she usually steals my onions in the end, so it works out. He just laughed. After our meal he came back out and chatted with us a bit. Telling us how he was from NY, but has lived in Paris for a few decades now. We laughed about old people in Florida (he had an aunt with a timeshare) and he asked us for the one thing we'd adopt into our lives back home. He was a real pleasure to chat with and make some delicious food! We left full and happy. Our blown plans wound up making for a deluxe final dinner in Paris. Highly recommend stopping in. They have a great craft beer selection and these great artisan lemonades.
