Paris II: Rue de Mouffetard

A great street to have a quick (and not so quick...) lunch. First of all we have to remind all of you it's not just another traditional-sightseeing street, but a remnant of an old Roman road, where old buildings, some even dated by the 12th Century, can be found. You'll find this little treasure at the 5ème arrondissement, very close to the Panthèon. The picture from Maximilien Luce probably is not going to help you a lot, but I'm sure you'll like it and if a XIXth Century painter thought the street was worth enough to be painted,... you won't dare to miss it.

Right in 60, rue de Mouffetard you'll find the best fast-made crepes in Paris (except for, of course, any crepe done by a true Britanny native). Au p'tit grec is a really small bar where you can buy and eat cheap crepes. We paid 16 € for three crepes and three cokes. There's not the huge range of choices you might find in Britanny, but it's pretty assorted. My friend took tuna and cheese and my other friend and I took egg, ham and cheese (une complète, on dit chez-moi). You can have tomato, lettuce and onion on it; in fact, the guy seems bothered if you don't want it in your crepe, he didn't understood it, as it was free. I've been told the best sweet crepe is the one made of Nutella and banana. Omelettes (2 or 3 eggs) with differents ingredients can also be taken.

If you feel like a fondue, this is also a good street to find a nice and cheap one; there are a couple of good restaurants where you might fondue and raclette (3 for 5 people, for example), paying around 16€ each one.
