Three Plazas<\/h2>\n

Paris restaurants in general have terraces, plants and views \u2013 inside or out.
\nSome Paris plazas on the other hand have an added attraction, the feel of a small village.<\/p>\n

Plazas are found everywhere in Paris. You have seen them in the movies. Maybe you have sat on one of the green benches next to a Wallace Fountain just because it is there. A bit isolated from heavy car traffic, but still lively, three plazas in particular are worth a visit.<\/p>\n

One has daily, permanent markets, regulars at its caf\u00e9, is close to the neighborhood city hall and at the foot of a famous Montmartre landmark. Another lies close to Montmartre away from the street noise where the children play and passersby sit and watch others pass by. The third was once a convent, then a covered market. Now merchants set up their stalls selling regional goods around Christmas time and at least seven restaurants surround the plaza.<\/p>\n

Place Charles Bernard<\/strong>
\nI read an article about Place Charles Bernard in the 18th arrondissement. They wrote about a certain caf\u00e9 and a certain patron with white hair who comes by every day with her dogs. They wrote about the daily market and the\u00a0general neighborhood activity.<\/p>\n

We went in search of this area down the street from the Mairie (city hall) and the OTHER side of Montmartre. When I saw the neighborhood I realized it was a rarity and that it could all disappear tomorrow…. That is what\u00a0was so fantastic about this small area; it is what used to be all over Paris!<\/p>\n

At Place Charles Bernard take a beer at le Reinitas (18 rue du Poteau) and watch everyone do their daily marketing, buy their papers and greet each other. If you area staying in the area and want to prepare a picnic, this is a great place to buy your roasted quail (caille) or chicken, cheese, veggies, fish, whatever.<\/p>\n

Location, location<\/strong>
\nMetro Jules Joffrin \u2013 eighteenth arrondissement \u2013 This neighborhood is located between rue Ordener, rue du Poteau and rue Sainte-Isaure.<\/p>\n

Origin of the name<\/strong>
\nCharles Jean Bernard (1856-1927) was a deputy in the mayor\u2019s office (eighteenth arrondissement).<\/p>\n

Place Gustave Toudouze<\/strong>
\nThis little community gathering point featuring the green bench and the Wallace fountain is in the ninth arrondissement. This neighborhood has plenty of little restaurants and homes; around the corner is the shadow of Sacre Coeur.<\/p>\n

While waiting for the Katoori restaurant to open, we sat next store at the tea salon sipping a beer and watched as one of the wait staff came out and began to bring Katoori to life, laying out the tablecloths, napkins, cutlery,
\netc. Katoori (4, Place Gustave Toudouze, rue Henri-Monnier) is a bring your own bottle restaurant.<\/p>\n

We made our reservation and went to the Shopi grocery store to buy our sparking wine (Blanquette de Limoux Brut – Jean Lafon for example).\u00a0 People from the neighborhood were returning home from work, the streetlights and restaurant lights were brightening up the evening, a bus passed once in a while, but the area was relatively traffic free.<\/p>\n

Location, location<\/strong>
\nMetro Saint-Georges, nineth arrondissement, rue Clauzel and rue Henri Monnier.<\/p>\n

Origin of the name<\/strong>
\nGustave Toudouze (1847-1904), romantic and dramatic author and journalist.<\/p>\n

Place du March\u00e9 Sainte Catherine<\/strong>
\nThis is one of the areas you can\u2019t help but want to pass through. It is so small, warm and inviting. Surrounded by a variety of restaurants, Jewish, Korean, traditional French, caf\u00e9 style, and one that has food and magic
\nshows for adults and children.<\/p>\n

Location, location<\/strong>
\nMetro Saint-Paul; located in the 4th arrondissement, in the Marais between rue d\u2019Ormesson and rue de Jarente.<\/p>\n

Origin of the name<\/strong>
\nSainte-Catherine-du Val-des-\u00c9coliers was a convent. Although the plaza itself dates from 1783, the layout is typical of the Middle Ages. A fountain is at the end of the Impasse de la Poissonnerie. The convent was razed in the 18th century and replaced in 1777 by the first Parisian covered market. At this time, the Impasse de la Poissonerie (around the corner) was set up to be a fish market. The fountain on the dead end street was designed and constructed in 1783 by Caron ( www.insecula.com ) for more information). By the 1930s this market was in disrepair and torn down.<\/p>\n
