$$-$$$, Bistro, Champs-Élysées
Fodor's Review:
Bistro
Au Petit Verdot du 17e. Sandwich bars might be threatening the traditional two-hour lunch, but that doesn't stop this old-fashioned neighborhood bistro from flourishing -- even though it's open only at lunch, except Thursday and Friday. Businessmen loosen their neckties to feast on homemade pâté, plate-engulfing steak for two, or guinea hen with cabbage, with one of 40 or so small producers' wines, which are delivered directly to the restaurant. The dining room has been freshly repainted with a wine theme.
