When the iconic monuments and the hordes of tourists start to tire you, there's Charonne, the "real" Paris to some, where people from many corners of the globe call home. Disparate cultures, incomes, and ages collide to bring you a Paris that is different from the postcards. Spanning from the 11th arrondissement to the 12th, Charonne is young and energetic. Local business owners are friendly, always available, and in a perpetually relaxed state of being. With its trendy, boho clientele, Charonne offers a truly eclectic and unique Parisian experience in the north-eastern part of the city.
Go here if you love friendly ladies who call everyone «ma chérie». Don't let the ultra-simple decor scare you. Get ready for a long wait (food usually takes a while to come out) because the end result is worth it. This is a no-frills, down-to-earth eatery that serves up some of the best vietnamese cuisine we’ve ever tasted in France.
