About
Les Papilles is an iconic bistro-wine bar in the Latin Quarter, founded by Bertrand Bluy, a former rugby player and Taillevent chef. This singular venue blends restaurant, gourmet shop, and wine merchant, featuring a late 19th-century zinc counter, wine-lined walls, and artisanal products. The concept centers on a unique daily market menu (appetizer, main, cheese, dessert) served family-style, showcasing generous and flavorful cuisine. Signature dishes include velvety soups, braised meats, panna cotta, and aged cheeses. The warm, authentic atmosphere, generous portions, and accessible prices make it a favorite among local food enthusiasts. Michelin Bib Gourmand, reservations essential.
