Can't speak for the citizens of Paris—for that matter, who can even speak to the citizens of Paris? —but for somebody like me, who's been traveling there for forty years and in recent decades has found it almost impossible to stumble on a satisfying meal, bistronomy may be the savior of the city. It's a totally irresistible and entirely revolutionary restaurant movement that deserves a slogan: Liberté, Égalité, Frugalité.

Perhaps you are unaware of the difficulty of eating well in Paris. The city remains beloved by those who shop for cheeses, breads, macarons, a terrine or two, but dining out has regressed. The new restaurants are markedly different from what classic French dining has become—regimented, often stultified. Nothing is rejected as a sin against convention. Architectural details vary, depending on the fame and finances of the chef. The restaurants are scattered throughout Paris, many of them in arrondissements rarely sought out by visitors.

Le Comptoir du Relais d'Yves Camdeborde : une larme de bonheur. Nous y voilà enfin. Sept mois d'attente pour la table la plus courue de Paris. Aucune étoile Michelin et un niveau de cuisine digne d'un troizétoiles. Un menu du jour à 50 euros, des vins de qualité, un joli décor. Le sentiment d'être un privilégié. "Rappelle-toi quand on a réservé en mai dernier... " Le vin est vite choisi. C'est parti. Gougères, chips vitelotte, rondelles de saucisson frère Camdeborde.

En entrée, on laisse parler le chef. Arrive le petit souci, un gramme de problème : le menu à 50 euros peut être vu comme un produit d'appel. Nos voies ont quelque peu différé. Et pour les garçons, "Saint-Jacques de la baie de Granville rôties en coquille, beurre demi sel persillé, agrume confit". Ebouriffant. Arrive donc la viande. Et pour les garçons, no limit. Avant... ...et après. Rien que de revoir les photos... No limit, on a tout goûté. Le dessert est déjà là. Et puis le moment qui cloue le bec à un dîner comme ça, la cerise sur le gâteau.

Movable Feast: Yves Camdeborde's Le Comptoir - Service Number 12. I unexpectedly had dinner at Yves Camdeborde's new gastronomic bistro Le Comptoir last night. With only about 20 covers each weeknight and a daily changing menu for only 40 euros, I'm guessing that a reservation here will soon be coveted as at El Bulli. Like a lot of cooks, Yves Camdeborde and I are distantly related. He was formerly sous-chef at the Crillon - under the infamously influential reign of Christian Constant - working in the same sprawling basement kitchen where I work now.

But over a decade ago he broke out and now has something of a cult following - comprised of cooks and clients alike. And now, there's Le Comptoir. Above, you see a small basket of root vegetable chips - a housemade version of those addictive Terra chips - potato, beet, yam, etc. - and a whole mini loaf of excellent country bread - secretly and cleverly sliced.

Mind blowing, Tongue numbing Cantonese French Fusion with a twist Address: 4, rue Sauval, ParisArrondissement: 01Phone Number: +33 1 40 26 08 07 Tucked away in a rather small street in the busy, crowded, godawful les Halles area awaits for you Yam’Tcha, one of the best Paris eateries opened this year. This French fusion restaurant, that sits only 20 when packed, combines French and Asian cooking with a lot of innovation and good taste.

That has been done before, and quite a lot you might say. Almost every time that someone refers to the French lastest trend for fusion, the reference is to some kind of Asian inspired traditional French cooking of some sort. Yam’Tcha has recently been awarded the Fooding award for best restaurant in 2009 and so justfully so. Chef Adeline Grattard, previously in the fabulous L’Astrance, together with her Hong Kong born husband, Chiwah Chan, are in charge of the innovative menu and the entire concept – The menu changes frequently and there is little choice.
