Oh, a lot of those places disappeared long ago. Good luck.

Thanks for the link, Mimi. I found the name of the cafe where we're eating in a couple of weeks. It's the Louis Phillipe and TA doesn't have any info about it.

If you're looking for little-explored areas of Paris, be sure to visit the Butte Chaumont, a beautiful park built in a former quarry. Wear your walking shoes, enjoy the scenery, and relax! Off-hand, I'm sorry I can't remember the arrondisement, but you can access the park from the Metro stop Laumiere
