Les Halles

Tony Bourdaina nd LEs Halles, meant a rebel chef cooing up killer fench bistro cuisine. I have many fond memories of Les Halles: crispy fries, frech baked bread and butter, garlicy snails, spicy steak tartar, onglet, and duck confit. It was wear one could smoke an dbe at piece, a place where souffle wasn't ordered but ready just in case you needed to top off your meal. I went back to Les Halles after a disasterous dinner with OnoCoffee. Would things change? I got Tony Bourdain's signature, I had mac and cheese with bacon and duck confit on tap. The mac and cheese was overwhelming with way too much bacon. The confit was hard as a rock when it should have been crispy and fork tender. I dont know. I'm confused and I don't know if I can go back. I guess I can go to Bistro du Coin (not really too many bad memories), or bistro lepic not as hip...help!!!

I vote du Coin. Or better yet, Brasserie Beck. Not French, but Belgium is close enough. Pork belly app is to die for.
