Summary: A loyal spot for classic fare.
Le Bougainville stands as a cherished venue in the heart of the city, where patrons from the worlds of finance, fashion, and journalism alike find a refreshing yet familiar dining experience. While it nods to contemporary tastes with dishes like dahl lentils and Caesar salad, the bistro remains true to its roots with traditional offerings such as tĂȘte de veau, herring with potatoes, goose rillettes, andouillette 5A, and the must-have stuffed cabbage. It's a rare occasion that guests have room for dessert, but for those who do, the floating island and tarte Tatin are not to be missed. This spot is also known for its specials on the chalkboard and a well-curated wine selection, all served in a relaxed setting with a laid-back ambiance and street-side tables for a quintessential dining experience.
