Guidebook for Paris
Food Scene
Great Libanese/Japanese fusion restaurant, loved by the foodies and a true local spot.
All this just two steps from the appartment!
The owners are adorables and working hard to serve you local and quality lunches.
You can also grab a cappucino and witness them cooking or their daughter sketching ;), they always have nice blends.
Careful they are closed on the week end and catering special events only for dinner.

A hidden gem!
Not your regular Italian restaurant.
Pietro, the autodidact chef and owner of this place will walk you throught the entire menu and his creation.
Directly inspired by his region Les Pouilles.

Best Vietnamese place!
Waiters are always so nice and polite.

Bo bun is to die for and it comes in two sizes, small 9 euros, big 12 euros
Charming location, with shell lamps hanging from the ceiling.
Plus, you can actually see them cooking if you sit at the bar.

This place is the perfect mix of locals and foreigners.
Be warned, it might get a bit fun/crazy on a week end night!

An institution....

Parks & Nature
It's our Parisian High line.
This old aerian train track got rehabilitated and you can take it all the way from Bastille to Bois de Vincenne.
It offers a high up point of view on the 12th arrondissement, walking around the trees on a sunny day is a really pleasant thing to do, especially with kids.
If you want to go for a morning jog, go early, it gets quite packed on the week end and slaloming in between people is never fun.
Plus: Go up to Jardin de Reuilly to try the free sparkling water fountain on display!

Go there for a pique-nique, bring a blanket, read a book and sun tan!
You can grab a coffee & a chocolate croissant to go at the Chocolaterie Cyril Lygnac across the entrance. Or even better a creamy hot chocolate!
FYI : Avoid week ends and late afternoon if you want a relaxing time, or you'll get a lot of kids running around action.
Which is also fun to witness sometimes, an entertainement in itself!
