On out recent trip to Paris, we wanted to add a restaurant in the 20th arrondissement near the famous Père-Lachaise cemetery. We were lucky to find Bistrot Blanc Bec. Here's our entry in the new 8th edition of "Eating & Drinking in Paris" which will be released this summer:
Friendly bistro with a beautiful mosaic floor in a former bakery.Highlights include bavette (flank steak) and the rich ganache chocolat (chocolate cake). Good selection of wines by the glass and a decent Côtes du Rhône house wine. Nice choice for lunch while visiting the nearby Père-Lachaise cemetery (the eternal home of Chopin, Proust, and Jim Morrison). Info: 20th/Métro Ménilmontant. 15 rue des Panoyaux (off of blvd. de Ménilmontant). Tel. 01/43.58.45.45. Closed Sun. and Mon. facebook.com/bistrotblancbec. Moderate.
