Coutume Café
47 Rue de BabyloneGreat coffee and brunch, including a veggie one
A tiny restaurant serving french terroir basics like pâté, rillettes, cheeses, beef and purée + wine of course. They also have an amazing tarte Tatin (order it as soon as you arrive to make sure you'll get a slice!)

Be nice to the restaurant owner! He cooks everything himself and is super nice if you don't bother him too much.
