A mere skip and a hop away from Place de Clichy, Le Cyrano recites the classics with panache! Dusted off by a young group of friends (Charleyne Valet and Clovis Aupetit, ex-Parigots and Les Gamins, plus Arthur Podetti, who is new to the restaurant game), this iconic dive with spotted mirrors and art nouveau mosaic tile floors – a brothel in a previous life – has been rekindled thanks to the charming plates made by Charleyne, which you can nibble at the marble counter or around one of the tightly packed bistro tables. Our lunch consisted of: leeks mimosa dressed in a praline vinaigrette; flame-charred mackerel adorned with yellow carrot purée, shiso leaves and piquillo pepper oil; before a delicious sweet clover far breton cake. At night, Le Cyrano serves dishes à la carte, with the likes of haddock taramasalata, black mullet crudo with pickled rhubarb, or their emblematic potato and brown butter millefeuille. And don’t forget about the homemade scones which make for a royal breakfast! // Thomas Jossin
