La Laiterie Sainte Clotilde

La Laiterie Sainte Clotilde, furnished with 1970s-vintage flea market finds, pulls in a chic local crowd with its stylish, nonchalant hospitality. The satisfying blackboard menu changes regularly but sticks to appealing French comfort food made from good quality seasonal produce—oeufs meurette (poached eggs in red wine sauce), pâté de campagne or marinated leeks to start, followed by steaks and homey main courses like beef shoulder braised with cinnamon and blanquette de veau.

La Laiterie, 64 rue de Bellechasse, 7th, 01.45.51.74.61
