Gigi, either you got a defective Zagat's or something very strange has happened. Are you saying NONE of the places above are listed in Zagats? I don't have a new one, but a number of them were sure in the 2006 version.

However with thousands and thousands of restaurants in Paris, it's pretty hard to find a very complete list in any guide.

I went to my favorite Chinese restaurant in the Chinatown of the 13th arrondissement yesterday, and once again an enormous meal for 2 including a 50cl carafe of wine was 26.50&euro; for two.<b>
Restaurant La Lune
36 avenue de Choisy</b>
metro Porte de Choisy
It's just a block from the Chinese McDonald's, which is worth a tourist visit in itself.

Our family of four really enjoyed our very good and reasonably priced meal at Le Caveau de L'Isle, on Ille St. Louis.

Here's a detailed report with photos, written by someone else:

And the restaurant's menu is on their URL http://www.lecaveaudelisle.com/uk/

Well, the 19.95&euro; menu of the Caveau scrapes into the 20&euro; elusiveness, but only if you drink tap water with the meal. The wine list comes up blank when I click on it. Scary!

Kerouac, I couldn't find the wine menu on-line, either. We only ordered house wine by the glass, and it was fine for us.

Is Le Fete Gallant still open? It is/was at 13 rue d'Ecole Polytechnique. I haven't been there in a while (too many restaurants to try!!) but that had a nice prix fixe menu for under 20 euros with good service.

I also liked L'Auberge de Champ de Mars, 18 rue de l’Exposition....but is that not out of the way enough?

Since this thread was dragged back up, I thought I would mention that there is a relatively thick Paris guidebook (in French) called &quot;Paris restaurants under 12 euros&quot;. I noticed it in FNAC yesterday.

Thanks for the ethnic food suggestions!

I had fabulous Indian food in Madrid. It was different in a slight way from the Indian I've had in the states. I love to try ethnic food in other countries to see what the differences are.
