la guinguette auvergnate

. I expected that all of the guignettes would have terrible food. It wasn’t great for sure but it was passable. I had an entré of pave de Saumon sauce dugéré and it was quite good. My plat was Saint Jacques provinçale and I wasn’t sure what was in the sauce—and I wasn’t particularly fond of it. We ordered the cheese for dessert. The music consisted of an accordion player and a keyboard player and they both sang too. I thoroughly enjoyed the music.

In spite of it being full, the service was almost immediate. On my first trip I opted for the buffet lunch, and on this most recent trip I ordered from the menu their fabulous Auvergne sausage, followed by a luscious desert that alone probably could have calorically fueled my body for the entire day.

Hoping to return this summer. Visited on a beautiful sunny Mothers Day a couple of years ago and had the most fun day of our Paris trip. Despite being fully booked Jean-Pierre found us a table and we enjoyed a very reasonable & enjoyable three course meal with complimentary wine. The place was packed & humming and everyone made us feel at home. The dancing was a little impaired by the amount of wine I consumed but what a day!Super super super and if you want to come home feeling you've experienced real Paris make the effort & get out of thee city.
