Relais de L’Entrecote Saint Germain

I’m sure you have worked up quite the appetite today. It’s a good thing steak frites is on the menu tonight. In fact, it’s the only thing on the menu.

You may have to wait in line but don’t let that hangry side out just yet, it moves pretty fast as this place is a steak frites institution. You’ll immediately be served the best salad of your life (unless you aren’t a fan of dijon mustard. Apologies to all of you!) and of course a basket of bread.

The only questions the server will ask you are how you would like your meat prepared and what drinks you'd like (sometimes you'll get a drink menu but more often than not, it's a simple vin rouge or vin blanc). I don’t know how they do it, but that green goddess sauce with the steak and fries is a picture perfect dinner in Paris. And definitely save room for dessert because you have to order two, the Vacherin du Relais and the Profiteroles! Yay food!
