Aux Charpentiers

Situated in the 6th district, the decor of this grand turn-of-the-century bistro is visibly devoted to the works of the carpenters' guild, located nearby. People from the nearby publishing houses, savvy students and calf's head connoisseurs (a specialty here) gather in to rub elbows. The atmosphere, as colorful and flavorful as the food, adds to Aux Charpentiers down home appeal.
