5.4 Chez Graff, 62, rue de Bellechasse in the 7th (Metro: Solferino), 01.45.51.33.42, closed weekends, is a place associated with the ex-patronne of the nearby Laiterie Sainte-Clotilde.  The carte is simple, no fussy stuff but solid neighborhood cooking.

The bill; for a threesome with a bottle and glass of wine, no bottled water and three coffees, the damage comes to 102.60 E thus 68.40 E a couple.

Go?  If one lived nearby, every so often, but considering the competition (principally Le 122) not very often.
