Healthy restaurants in Paris.
Written by Gillian McKeith
Paris took its sweet time. For years, eating well here meant negotiating politely with a kitchen that had no intention of negotiating back. Now a serious generation of bio and vegetal restaurants has arrived, and some of them are very good indeed.
Below you will find organic bistros, vegan dining rooms and cafes applying proper French technique to vegetables instead of treating them as a garnish.
I selected each one myself, against exactly the same standard I apply everywhere else in this guide.
