LUNCH/DINNER IN PARIS..where to eat?
 
Two years ago my hubby and I went to Paris to visit his son and daughter-in-law. We had a great time. Did the sightseeing thing, Eiffel Tower, Jardin de Luxembourg, The Catacombs, Notre Dame, etc. However, I was a little disapointed in the choices of restaurants they made. I love the kids to death, but they are a little more adventurous than I when it comes to food. We had Indian food,and Armenian food mostly. I was looking forward to a "traditional" french dinner in a bistro, or I love to sit outside, eat dinner and people watch.

We are going back to Paris in July for a week to see our new grandchild!!
So, who can recommend a quaint bistro near or around our hotel? We will be staying at the Concord Lafayette/3 Place Du General Koenig. Thanks for your help :)

I do not know if this site will work, but it is the ViaMichelin site. Enter your arrondissement (75017) and choose either Michelin restaurants or the category "other restaurants" and you will get a listing of what is in your neighborhood.

I've been to Le Stella (Ave Victor Hugo, 16th arr) about half a dozen times with visiting friends when I lived in Paris and found it to be a reliable choice for an upscale, non-touristy French bistro.
