Careful, this new happy hour spot will make spot cheese-addicts melt with pleasure. Very near the hip rue des Martyrs and Hotel Amour, Comptoir des Rillettes is no other than an offshoot of Rillettes, the super earthy bistrot across the street.
On the menu of this bar- fine grocery store with a retro glam’ look, rillettes of course, but also a haute couture raclette to compose as you with a nice selection by Marie Quatrehomme , MOF chesse monger of Saint-Germain-des-Prés.
Are you more Reblochon, Cantal, Morbier, Camembert or frankly blue or goat? Here everything goes, just choose and priori, chacun choisit et mix your favorite cheese for a customized raclette with an amazing choice of charcuteries (white ham, pork, chorizo, saucisson…), condiments and the best potatoes er we’re telling you.
The must ? A bill by the weight. Tops for twigs wishing to master quantities and enjoy themselves without feeling guilty.
We also like: the grocery corner that features qui name-dropped earthy products by small regional producers.
Deluxe lobster oil, jams by Francis Miot, Normandy soups and by Atelier du Poissonnier, old fashioned lemonades to mention but a few.
Tuesday to Saturday starting at 2pm (reservation mandatory after 11pm)
