The Restaurant Boucherie Hugo Desnoyer, 28, rue du Docteur-Blanche in the 16th, 01.46.47.83.00 (Bus = PC1) is open weekdays non-stop between 9 AM and 6 PM and starts taking orders for lunch at 10, is it was just what I needed in order to eat and make a 1 PM conference at the nearby OECD.

For dessert they had a cherry muffin-type-thing and cherry creme. With this, a bottle of good Givry and two coffees, our bill came to 125 E a couple.
