Au P'tit Curieux, 27 Rue de Sambre-et-Meuse, Paris 10
The restaurant is in a somewhat forgotten part of the tenth arrondissement, one that still looks like areas of Paris in 1950s films noir (although it is not a dangerous area, of course). French film fans may think of Bob le Flambeur and Touchez pas au Grisbi [https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rJUd!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7d65c75-eef3-4968-bce1-e7db5bd03908_4032x3024.jpeg] https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!rJUd!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff7d65c75-eef3-4968-bce1-e7db5bd03908_4032x3024.jpeg .

As a result, along with Pétrelle in the ninth arrondissement, it one of the most romantic restaurants in Paris.

The room included groups of French people of varying ages who seemed to be regulars, a thirtyish American couple, and a couple of about the same age who seemed to have New Zealand accents (perhaps in town for the Rugby World Cup). For a first course, I took the salmon gravlax on a bed of quinoa. It was correct, but nothing exceptional. I accompanied it with a glass of very good Beaune 1er Cru en l’Orme from Domaine Germain.

Au P’tit Curieux, restaurant bistronomique parisien
La rédaction [https://www.luxury-touch.com/] vous embarque dans sa dernière découverte, une pépite gastronomique, nichée dans le Xe arrondissement parisien. Mais il n’y a pas que la cuisine… Si vous êtes à la quête d’un moment précieux et mémorable, rendez-vous dans ce bistrot parisien intimiste pour faire la rencontre d’une personnalité très attachante, Selim Ben Amor, ancien violoncelliste professionnel, qui a ouvert ce restaurant avec son associé Charles Lecurieux-Clerville. Une ambiance chaleureuse vous saisit dès l’entrée avec l’accueil affable du patron mélomane. Son souhait : faire partager une expérience multi-sensorielle avec la complicité du violoniste Nadim Garfi qui programme de la musique classique, jazz ou du monde après le dîner. CÔTÉ DÉCORATION Selim a métamorphosé cette ancienne boulangerie en parenthèse enchantée pour les épicuriens avides de plaisirs gourmands et d’échanges dans un esprit bohème s’inspirant des bistrots parisiens ! On aime la salle colorée d’une vingtaine de place avec des chaises en velours multicolores. Nos yeux sont subjugués par le monumental bar incliné en chêne français, dessiné par Selim, tout a été pensé dans les moindres détails : aucun genou ne se cognera contre le bar d’où son inclinaison ! l.es murs s’habillent de bouteilles et d’une fresque picturale créée par l’artiste peintre Jean-François Granier.

Sadaune CÔTÉ CUISINE La cuisine franco-italienne du Chef Toni Verardo évolue au rythme des saisons. Tout est fait maison. UNE SYMPHONIE DE SAVEURS Lors de ce dîner, les papilles sont à la fête. En entrées : le Saumon gravlax sur lit de quinoa, crème d’aneth, chips tapioca, coulis d’agrumes et les Artichauts rôtis, émulsion de parmesan, anchois & citron confit au miel de thym, crumble de noisettes… suivis de Noix de Saint-Jacques de Normandie poêlées mousseline de panais, réduction de betteraves… et la Belle Noix d’entrecôte Simmental, pommes grenaille sautées, beurre d’échalote. Tout simplement un régal, du début à la fin !
