Le Bistro Saint-Antoine , is one of the truly bistros of Paris Bastille. It is situaded near Bastille on the long rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine between Nation square and Bastille Square. This bistro is run by a true and kind Aveyronnaise, Jean-Paul Azémar , who as thousands of others, came up in Paris and run bistros.

Jean-Paul Azémar always think of the ambiance of its place. As in a true bistro, everybody is welcome, and the result is a perfect mix of different social classes, races and religions. A sort of democratic forum which fit with the definition of the parisian bsitro.

Or course, Jean-Paul Azémar reserves good surprises for the gourmets with very nice prices. He defends the products of his native region : the aligot, this emblematic dishe of Aveyron, a rich puree made with Tomme cheese, butter and mashed potatoes. But also, the delicious Salers Beef from the Cantal country. One's can find tripous, these pieces of sheep's stomach that the Aveyronnaises have sometimes in breakfast...

And of course, there are the wines. Jean-Paul Azemar is fond of theses "french little wines", like sancerre or brouilly, theses perfect wines to relish with friends in a warm bistro like Le Bistro Saint-Antoine.
