restaurant recommendations for large group(11) for several dinners in Paris
We will be stying in the sixth, midway on Rue Cherche Midi. Travelling with pre-teens and teenagers Need two suggestions near the hotel to accommodate us for dinner. Brasseries/Bistros perfect.
Thanks
Dining on/near the Isle Saint Louis
will be there in a few weeks with my ten year old, and looking to take her to the Isle, so we can walk to Berthillon for dessert after dinner. Ideally a restaurant, where if it is a bad day, they could find her a plate of pasta.
Price not overly a consideration, but charming would be a plus. All recs appreciated.
BEST of the Flo Brasseries?
Second La Rotonde the food there was better than 4 Flo brasseries I have been to in the past few years. Avoid terminus Nord at all costs. Horrible food, worse service. if you go to Bofinger, ask to sit downstairs.
Restaurant recs Zermatt
Any suggestions, on and off mountain appreciated. Also, do we need to reserve in advance for dining on the mountain?
Thanks
Cal Pep Closed when were are there. Tapas suggestion needed.
Thanks, figured we would not eat much before nine, and price isnt much of an issue of us. Will look at Kaiku, Parallada, and 7 Portes and Can Majo. Thanks for all your suggestions.

Bar del Pla looks perfect, thanks for the recommendation. What do you suggest for traditional Catalan food for Saturday evening? We are staying near the Marina. I need a place that I can get something simple for my kids(like a steak) in addition to fidueas or seafood for the adults.

Finally thought I was going to be able to eat there, and they are closed for a holiday in October. Would prefer to go somewhere you can make a reservation for a party of six.
Any suggestions?
Traditional Catalonian Cuisine in Barcelona
Looking for recs for a traditional Catalonian restaurant in Barcelona. Not moder(a la Cinq Centis), but good local cuisine. Also, if someone could give me the name of the new market(not the boqueria) and let me know if ti is worth a visit, I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
Bermuda recs needed
Thanks, not from France, but go there often. The black horse is actually open tonight, so heading there(although a little concerned about getting stuck, as I understand taxis are difficult). I will try Blackbeards tomorrow. I do travel a lot, and opt for local cuisine when we go to places like Bermuda. , as I get enough of the "fancy stuff" elsewhere. I like the Swizzle inn, they had a great rock fish the other night. Will check out black beards. I try to get my recs from cab drivers as the concierge, especially at a hotel like this, tend to recommend the more expensive restaurants, Thanks for you suggestions.
Bermuda recs needed
Here now, Black horse is closed for renovation.
Staying at Tuckers Point, any other good local recs besides the swizzle inn?
Thanks
restaurants in Forte Dei Marmi
Looking for reasonably priced suggestions for dinner.
"local cuisine" near tucker's point
Will be arriving next week, and are trying to low key dining, as we are splurging to stay here. Dont need fancy, just local seafood, not an exorbitant cab ride from the hotel. Dennis's hidewaway looks great, so things similar to that would be helpful.
breakfast near chatelet tube
Looking for suggestions for easy breakfast near chatellet tube. All suggestions appreciated
Need recs for 5 nights in London near the Landmark Hotel in Marylebone and surrounding area
I second Phoenix Palace for great chinese food. Also,the Colony just opened up on Paddington Street for modern Indian. Really good. Two blocks from the Landmark is Ishtar for turkish food, and if you want to down and dirty, Alibaba on Ivor place is a small egyptian restaurant, run by a family. No ambience, but good food. It is right near Marylebone train station, about a five minute walk from the Landmark. BYOB. There is also a great gastro pub called the Duke of York on Crawford Place(I believe) which makes great scallops. There upstairs dining room is small, so I would recommend calling in advance. If you want simple breakfast, like a yogurt or nothing too fancy, in Marylebone train station there are a few options, including a Paul bakery.
Looking for recs in the Algarve
Great suggestion, just booked Vila joya for lunch the sunday of our stay.
Looking for recs in the Algarve
Any suggestions appreciated, will be staying at Villa Vita Parc, which lists their area as Porches.
London SW: Good Vietnamese, where to buy short ribs of beef and gigantes beans
The natural butcher on Marylebone high street will make them to order. I bet the ginger pig would as well.
Le Bistrot de l'Alycastre
Thanks John, saw it there, but did not know if you had been more recently. Staying in the 5th in a few weeks, and looking for bistro style restaurant somewhere near Saint Placide metro. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Le Bistrot de l'Alycastre
Looking for any recent dining experiences. Thinking of going next week with a group of friends, when we are in Paris.
Indian near trafalgar square
Looking for suggestions for moderately priced(no cinnamon club) indian near trafalgar square for a large group. Must be able to make a reservation, and be kid friendly. Should have tandoori options on the menu. Trying to keep it to 20£ a head.
Best Black and White cookie??
Dont know where they get them from but I love the ones art Artie's deli. Cake like bottom, and perfect icing.
Fun dinner group of 8 women in Paris
Thanks, made a reservation at Rotonde, concerned Le souffle may not be right, as this is a shopping trip, and three courses of soufflee, sound like they may not break the bank, but the waistline. Looking for feedback on Gallopin or Zimmer in the first.
Have been to Ami Jean, and I like it, it may not be right for this group.
Fun dinner group of 8 women in Paris
Going for the sales in January. Looking for something fun for dinner on the right bank, in terms of a bistro. Like to keep it to 50 euros per person. Also, looking for a great brasserie walking distance from the place de la madeline for our first night. Similar budget
Thanks
Gallopin or Mollard in Paris
Thanks, I think I am sticking with Gallopin
I appreciate your help.
Gallopin or Mollard in Paris
Have finally narrowed it down to these two, any recent thoughts would be helpful. Usually not this neurotic, but responsbile for a group of 8 for dinner, and feeling a little pressure.
