Le Train Bleu (1901) https://maps.app.goo.gl/8srFo6f8nJ6K9SHt6 - This restaurant located in the train station is known to be one of the most beautiful restaurants in Paris! I ordered their Pâté en croûte, Roast Leg of Lamb, and Crêpes Suzette for dessert. The entire experience was phenomenal. Total price - €125.50 Le Dôme Café (1898) https://maps.app.goo.gl/SNMsqw29nwqwVD5G7 - Next up, this restaurant was one of the favorites on Anthony Bourdain. I tried their Rockfish Soup, the massive cold seafood Le Dôme Platter, Sole Meunière, and Napoléon Mille-feuille for dessert. Again, a legendary place, and the food and service were both phenomenal. Total price - €394.50 for 3 people Bofinger (1864) https://maps.app.goo.gl/MwxdfUfNXufV2eRm9 - You can’t go to Paris without trying Bofinger, loved by tourists and locals alike. I tried their Endives and Clementines Salad, and the massive Choucroute Garnie (Bofinger’s Signature Sauerkraut) for main course. Total price - €58.90 L'Escargot Montorgueil (1832) - https://maps.app.goo.gl/hdTEyEPeMwMEE4fb9 - One of the most famous or infamous French foods are escargot, snails, and this is a historical restaurant in Paris to try them. I had their XXL Snails, Frog Legs, and Duck Confit. Total price - €138.00 Patisserie Stohrer (1730) https://maps.app.goo.gl/PZrvT1TxUR2waAYc9 - Dating back to 1730, Patisserie Stohrer is the oldest bakery in Paris, and I had their Rum Baba and Chocolate Éclair, plus a few other things I didn’t show on camera. Total price - €20.50 Le Procope (1686) https://maps.app.goo.gl/GUb6Ri9wVHdqn5ZTA - The oldest cafe and no restaurants in Paris is Le Procope, where Napoleon once left his hat as collateral for not paying for his meal. I had the French Onion Soup, Calf’s Head like in 1686, and the Coq au Vin. I was worried this place might be a total tourist trap, but to my surprise, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was incredible. Total price - €89.10 Finally, I have to mention La Tour d'Argent, the actual oldest restaurant in Paris, but unfortunately they don’t allow any filming.
