Le Rendez Vous De L'abbaye

However hungry you may be during your stroll around Paris V just don't go there.

The mains appeared to be all home made, typical French pastry - super quiche Lorraine - exquisite apple pie - friendly service - dogs allowedAvoid cheese platter for dessert I only was offered one piece of under ripe cheese - my fault as I should have asked before ordering

.... and people watching! The Nicoise salads are excellent, as were the crepes for desserts. This restaurant is right next to the abbey. In good weather you can sit outside, but inside looks nice too. Wonderful friendly service from what must be one of the busiest waiters ever. he never seems to stop.

We were recently en route from Germany to Spain

We really were only looking for a place to have a rest and a glass or two of wine, and this appeared to be a good spot. It's located within 15 yards of the entrance to the Abbey and across the street for the Tourist Visitors Bureau (which, as an aside, has some of the best prices on locally produced wine). The benefit to the proximity to the Tourism Office was that free WiFi was available. So while we enjoyed our first glass of wine, we were able to catch up briefly on messages, etc. BUT --- the real surprise came in the food. We had not intended to eat, but then changed our minds --- and the food was quite good. My wife had a salad chock full of vegetables and meats, and I had one of the best quiches I've had in quite some time. Crustless on the sides --- it was flavorful, we'll balanced with ingredients, and perfectly done. It’s a simple place for sure, but certainly exceed our expectations in terms of food, price and location.
