French Stranger #60
Located in the 1st, on rue de la Vrillière,
Bistrot Victoires is a nice little place for a good lunch at an affordable prix. Our waitress was very charming and pretty as well! We had a table in the doorway facing the street. I love that about Paris. In fine weather, you can enjoy your meal and people watch at the same time.
Since writing this text, I might add that we also dined here our first night in Paris last January! Peter joined us and we had a nice dinner and got to see this charming waitress again as well. Jet lag and wine provided many laughs that night!
The zinc bar is so, so Paris!
I don't know exactly what this is. A brass R2D2 or an expresso machine of some kind? Love the straw hat!

I vote for the brass R2D2 ~ I think it's the hat that does it for me!! This place looks very cosy and inviting, Virginia.
I love that bistro; a great place to take visitors because it's a classic.
It's an espresso machine. «Louis'» caffeine meter quivered immediately when «Louis» saw it...
This bistrot is duly noted. Merci. And I must thank another Paris blogger for mentioning that sometimes streets are listed under "La" in the street index. My PARIS Moleskine is getting a good work-out.
Looks like a BIG espresso machine ... nicely captured!
Just began following this charming blog -- terrific photos! Makes me feel as if I'm leaving the four walls of my studio and having my capuccino at a cafe in Paris!
Great picture of the espresso machine.
WEll I guessed right on the expresso machine. Cool with the hat!
Sandy,
Your website is a delight!! Love your illustrations.
Ah...I'm so jealous! Good food in a warm delightful place with a beautiful waitress...just can't get much better than that...oh, and in Paris, too!
I'll have a a cafe au lait sil vous plait!!!
I was wondering how cold this waitress must have been should you have taken this during your recent January trip.
Delightful portraits! (And I include the R2D2 barrista in that group.) I'll have to add this to my growing list of places to try.
I've seen lots of espresso machines before, V - but never one wearing a hat! Great shot.
love that bistro; a great place to take visitors because it's a classic.

I remember the January dinner! A nice place, nice company ... and a nice waitress!
