Petit Paris

« Oozing with Parisien charm, this intimate French restaurant in Edinburgh's historic Grassmarket has been delighting Scottish Francophiles with its Gallic goodness for over a decade. From the snails grilled with garlic, parsley and Pernod butter to the checked tablecloths, whitewashed walls, sunny al fresco terrace and cosmopolitan crowd, Petit Paris should be in every local's little black book. Loved for its hearty produits du terroir, this bustling bistro serves up favourites such as the free range "coq au vin"; the grilled entrecote steak dressed in a strong cognac and peppercorn sauce; and the famous Petit Paris stew of the day. »
