Grands Boulevards
1. Broche
Broche, nestled in Paris' Passage des Panoramas, offers a unique culinary experience focusing on Levantine street food. With a concise yet exquisite selection of pitas, including wood-fired shawarma and delectable falafels, Broche appeals to lovers of Eastern flavors. The menu's simplicity, featuring items like fries, pickles, and falafels, underscores a commitment to quality and authenticity of ingredients.
Chef Tamir Nahmias, known for his Middle Eastern influences blended with contemporary creativity, is the culinary mastermind behind Broche. After closing his restaurant Adar, he now dedicates himself to this new venture that reflects his Israeli heritage and expertise gained from renowned chefs. Broche's casual atmosphere, perfect for a quick meal at the counter or to-go, complements its street food fare.
The experience at Broche extends beyond just dining. The restaurant offers innovative sandwiches like the shawarma in a soft pita, reminiscent of the sabich. Vegetarian options are equally impressive, with juicy falafels among the best in Paris. To finish, desserts like maamouls and chocolate and halva cookies add a sweet touch. Broche, with its authentic flavors and minimalist approach, is a true gem of Parisian street food.
