Klee Brasserie?
I have eaten at Klee several times and I find the food delicious--both inventive and well-prepared. But do not forget the wine list! For a small, reasonably priced restaurant, I think Klee does an impressive job with their wine selections-none of the run-of the mill wines you see on every "homogenized wine list" in Manhattan--there are some really interesting choices there (and healthy selection of half-bottles) to satisfydiverse tastes. And, I find the staff overall fairly knowledgeable about their list--which is refreshing to say the least!
Our Honeymoon Trip to Paris in July
You have a wonderful itinerary--you have clearly done excellent research. Regarding the macaroons, I second (or third?) Gerard Mulot. To my mind, the macaroons are simply exquisite (and I have done quite a bit of research on this). And I second "La Grand Epicerie" as well--just a lovely way to spend a few hours. For lunch, we learned the hard way that it is east to hit gastronomic overload. For our past few trips, we only do cheese, bread, fruit and some wine for lunch. Then we find ourselves with a nice appetite for dinner.
Wines from Provence?
Again, if you find yourself near Bandol, Domaine de Terrebrune is lovely--they have a small restaurant open for lunch and dinner--food was exceptional, as were the wines. It is off the beaten path and a little difficult to find but I believe it was well worth the trip--a lovely tasting and tour that ended with a wonderful meal.
