WESTERN PARIS

Change comes slowly to this old bourgeois neighborhood bordering the Bois de Boulogne. It’s full of Paris stalwarts, where families have gathered over generations, and you can find some wonderful deeply Parisian bistros and brasseries. Avoid anything looking too chic or polished, where you’ll very often pay high prices for mediocre fare.

Fodor’sChoice Comice. $$$$ FRENCH The culinary experience here is a progression of delights, from your first luscious sip of carrot vélouté to a light-as-air chocolate souflé contrasted with a zesty yuzu macaron. In between, dishes like butter-poached lobster, with sweet potato, spinach and shallot; or fois gras en terrine with quince, walnuts, and dates—all meticulously sourced from the finest producers around France—surprise, comfort, and deeply satisfy. Known for: fantastic four-course lunch menu; beautiful, serene setting; excellent wine list, of mostly natural wines. Average main: €44 31 ave de Versailles, 15e, Western Paris 01–42–15–55–70 www.comice.paris Closed Sun. and Mon. No lunch Tues. and Wed. Mirabeau, Javel 3:A3.

Fodor’sChoice Le Pré Catelan. $$$$ MODERN FRENCH Live a Belle Époque fantasy by dining beneath the chestnut trees on the terrace of this fanciful landmark pavillon in the Bois de Boulogne. Each of chef Frédéric Anton’s dishes is a variation on a theme, such as l’os à moelle: bone marrow prepared two ways, one peppered and the other stuffed with porcini and cabbage, both braised in a concentrated meat jus. Known for: three Michelin stars; splendid “country” setting in the Bois de Boulogne; elegant service. Average main: €120 Rte. de Suresnes, 16e, Western Paris 01–44–14–41–14 www.restaurant-precatelan.com Closed Sun., Mon., 2 wks in Feb., 3 wks in Aug., and 1 wk in late Oct.–early Nov. Jacket and tie Porte Dauphine 1:A3.
