300 yds. walk (I'm British we do yards not metres) from Gare Du Nord
brings you to the small square containing the Church of St Vincent du Paul behind which you can find Chez Michel a spot chosen at random from good old Google maps.
No-one in as we arrived which didn't bode well but it soon filled up with locals which is a very good sign. The person on the adjacent table was a chef from another restaurant which it a good recommendation for this one...not so sure about his own!
