Fodor's Review:

Bistro

Ribouldingue. Find offal off-putting? Don't let that stop you from going to this new bistro near the ancient St-Julien-le-Pauvre church, where offcuts take pride of place on the EUR 27 menu. You can avoid odd animal bits completely by opting for dishes such as marinated salmon and seared tuna with slow-cooked eggplant. Or go out on a limb with the tétine de vache (thin, breaded and fried slices of cow's udder) and groin de cochon (the tip of a pig's snout). This adventurous menu is the brainchild of Nadège Varigny, daugher of a Lyonnais butcher and former manager at the wildly popular bistro La Régalade. She runs the front of house while chef Guy Bommefront turns out the impeccable food -- his veal kidney with potato gratin is a classic. Don't miss the unusual desserts, such as the tart ewe's milk ice cream.
