When Le Bistrot Paul Bert crossed the Atlantic for dinners at Le Rock Brasserie in Rockefeller Center and a lunch at Frenchette, GIFTSHOP created a limited-edition collection to mark the occasion. The New York Tote, in sleek black, carries Kevin Lhuissier's recognisable façade design with a dash of New York sophistication.
Produced in very limited quantities, it is a high-quality everyday bag designed for life between two cities.
Bistrot Paul Bert
Opened in 1997 on rue Paul Bert, in the 11th arrondissement, Bistrot Paul Bert boasts one of the most charming dining rooms in Paris and one of its most agreeable crowds: newcomers feel they have walked into the Parisian bistro of their dreams. Run by Bertrand Auboyneau and Gwenaëlle Cadoret, the house entrusts its stoves to chef Thierry Laurent.
The menu draws straight from the classic bistro repertoire: steak frites, andouillette, soufflé and tarte Tatin, not forgetting the steak au poivre, the house's signature dish. Compared with many other bistros, Paul Bert stands out for its first-rate sourcing and careful cooking. The dining room is open Tuesday to Saturday, for lunch and dinner.
