Le Servan

On the watch of Katia and Tatiana Levha, two Filipino sisters, this place has blossomed into one of the most popular bistros in Paris (booking essential). The interior puts its best foot forward, showing off its period frescoes. Tatiana put her English studies on hold in order to indulge her twin passions of eating and cooking! Trained in the establishments of Alain Passard and Pascal Barbot, she creates lively and cheerful cuisine, French but with a good measure of Asian influences. Indeed, just the right amount of chilli is used to spice up a number of recipes. Particular care goes into the sauces and jus, such as the soy and chilli butter on the pork and langoustine ravioli, and the saffron bisque and rouille served with sea bass, fennel and kale.
