Mon préféré

Sadly the new owner of Le Reminet has painted the façade a dark red. I thought the purple was pretty chic. Regardless, the food is still so good and the best meal for your euros! 

Charmantes Filles

As Meredith Mullins and I stepped outside Le Reminet after a delightful lunch, she spotted a family
that she knew.  They were visiting Paris again,  and I was the lucky one.  I was able to snap these two
delightful girls!

Les préparations

Le Reminet

Today as all of us celebrate Thanksgiving here in the U.S., perhaps my expat friends in Paris will dining on something more French.  Today I am most grateful for my family, friends here and around the world. Bon appétit!

Après le déjeuner

When we lunched at le Reminet there was a large group at the table next to us. It must have been a business lunch as they had everything, including the dessert that you can see was well received.

Réflexions- le Reminet

As you know by now, I do not dine at *pricey restaurants in Paris.  My theory is that you can get a good meal at a reasonable price almost anywhere in Paris. I prefer to save my euros for other things.  I met American photographer Meredith Mullins at le Reminet for lunch in July, 2009, and since then I've returned several times and enjoyed it each time.   Located on the Left Bank, it's close to Meredith's flat so she's a "regular". When you drop her name, the waiters light up!  I love the décor, the mirrors made me pull out my camera.

* For most, le Reminet is a very moderately priced resto. I urge you to try it.

Mes Chères Amies à Paris

Well as many of you know, my dear Paris loving amies Genie and Marie (M) are in Paris at this very moment. We had planned to chat every single day but alas, with the 7 hour time difference, that still has not happened! ( I hope to stay up late tonight and get these early birds when they wake up!)  I'm missing them a lot, so today a look back to a wonderful déjeuner at Le Reminet last juin. Le sigh.

Gros bisous Genie and Marie,

D´jeuner Avec Chandelles

Last trip I took Marie and Genie to my favorite little restaurant, Reminet ( Île de la Cité) for lunch. I was so impressed with myself that I actually found it again, that I didn't think that perhaps we would need une réserve. Not to worry, they had a table for us downstairs. We were delighted. We had the lovely room all to ourselves. This nice vignette was lit by a scrumptious Manuel Canovas candle. We had a wonderful time taking photographs and enjoying our delicious lunch, wine, dessert, and I'm sure they were tickled to have les américains downstairs!

Le Reminet

Mes amis we are happily back in Paris today. I had a really nice lunch here at le Reminet last summer with American (living in Paris) photographer Meredith Mullins. This restaurant, located on île de la Cité, just a stroll across the bridge from Notre Dame, is one of Meredith's favorites. I rarely take photos in restaurants but this one was too charming to pass up. Déjeuner était délicieux!
