French Food
If you’re not one to try new things, especially any other type of food besides American, I advise you to go to the nearest grocery store as soon as you get to Paris and load up on all the snacks you can find. French food is nothing like American food, and it’s about 1/4 the serving size. You’ll be hungry the majority of your trip, but the sites to see in Paris will distract you from your stomach growling. I’m not a big dessert eater when I go to a restaurant, but in Paris, that was by far the best course of every meal. I strongly urge you and your party to share at least a couple of desserts at every restaurant you visit.
The three restaurants that I enjoyed the most were:
- Flam’s - famous for their pizza. The pizza is not like American pizza by any means, but it’s just as tasty. If you don’t like veggies, just get the plain cheese pizza because they like to load up their pizzas with every vegetable you can imagine!
- Altitude 95 - this restaurant is located on the first floor of the Eiffel Tower.
- Hard Rock Cafe - besides McDonald’s, this is one of the most Americanized places to dine. It is two stories and has a huge bar on the bottom floor. At night it turns into a nightclub with a massive dance floor right in the middle.
