La Fourmi Ailee Restaurant, 75005 Paris

Well ok – La Fourmi Ailee is NOT a vegetarian restaurant

Although it’s not strictly vegetarian La Fourmi Ailee has some meals that any vegetarian would enjoy.

If you are a vegetarian visiting Paris I recommend having a meal there, even though I haven’t been there myself, but I have friends who’ve recommended it highly.

They tell me it’s a charming and informal “writer’s haven” filled with bookshelves of books – sounds great! It used to be a library, so it has lots of history and a real “bookish” feel to it, for those who love the written word like I do.

There’s a non-smoking section upstairs, something still very rare in Paris.

My friends said, “La Fourmi Ailée features a wonderful, varied menu including several delicious vegetarian items. One is a tofu lasagna with just enough cheese and Roma tomatoes to hold the ample noodles together.”
