Subdued sophistication and signature soufflés make this 7th arrondissement institution a success. Quiet covered terrace in warm weather.

The happy marriage of two restaurants has transformed this once classic Burgundian bistro into a fresh yet equally as stylish haven for ethereal, exotically spiced soufflés, both savory and sweet. Gérard Idoux of La Cigale has taken over the glowing space where retired Martin Cantegrit presided for over thirty years. A privileged location on a shady pedestrian passage in the chic 7th arrondissement, the restaurant and its coveted terrace still attract notable personalities from Paris' literary milieu around a morel mushroom or camembert soufflé, a steak tartare, or a beef filet grilled in basil.
