After a very, very long day and after stopping by in two restaurants nearby that very openly only catered to locals, we found L'Alicheur. It was the best find ever! The owner warmly welcomed us in and helped us understand our options. After encountering only French and no English menus it was wonderful to have someone come clearly and gladly explain all of the amazing dishess. We got a tamarind and lemongrass soup with chicken and a curry chicken dish to eat in. There are only a few spots where one could sit down at but it made it all the more cozy and part of the experience. After our meal we even chatted for a while with the owner about our travels and he gave his suggestions to help us have the best trip possible.
It was a perfect way to begin our two night stay in Paris and if we were here for longer we would definitely go back again. We might still even though we have such a short stay since it was that good! read more
