I don’t really have a favorite café
in Paris. Contrary to what people think, few people that live in Paris will
cross the city to stop into a casual place for a drink or something to eat.
Most will go to a local spot where the servers know you, where you’ll get a
friendly greeting because the staff recognizes you as a regular. Which is a
form of currency in town, one that you really want to hold on to.
However, when you’re out and about,
it’s nice to have a bonne
adresse to stop into, where you can be assured of a bon acceuil (good welcome)
and a decent plat du jour,
or something else to eat. Over in the 7th arrodissement, after prowling the
aisles of La Grande Épicerie
or hitting some of the Left Bank chocolate and pastry shops, I’ll often find
myself at Le Nemrod, a classic corner café serving French fare with an
Auvergnat bent.
