Paris restaurants

[Vic69]

Posted this question in chat before realising that this is a better place...
Anyway: we are having our last fling in Feb, before birth of first child in April: 3 nights in Paris - yippee! I have lived there in the past but haven't managed to go back for about 10 years, so I am completely out of date now. Do you have any recommendations for nice places to eat - cafes, brasseries, salons de the or restaurants? We are not looking to blow the budget, and are quite happy to eat any cuisine, but it would be great to know of some relaxed,atmospheric places. Hopefully we'll be based in the Marais, so anything round there would be great... thanks!

My current favorite for dinner in the Marais is Cafe Baci (36 rue de Turenne, 3e Tel: +33 (0) 1 42 71 36 70) which is quite trendy but the service is very good and the food is pretty good. About Eur50 per head including wine.

The Buddha Bar is great for eating or just a drink and the music. Can't remember address but it's v well known

there are a chain of restuarants called Les Bouchons. there is one on 12 rue de l'Hotel Colbert, 75005 Paris, 01 43 54 15 34.
alternatively 7 rue de Boccador, 75008, 01 47 23 57 80.

Great food and inexpensive wine since they are wine merchants.
