Duvin — Restaurant in Paris

Just behind the Église de la Trinité, in the 9th arrondissement, is a bistro where everything revolves around wine, as the name suggests. Host Pierre Guignard was previously a sommelier at the nearby Le Bon Georges. In the kitchen is Belgian chef David Meert, who has cooked in Australia and Bordeaux, among other places. The wine list is extensive and fairly priced, with names such as Jean Foillard, Pierre Vaïsse and Emmanuel Reynaud.

The menu features French bistro classics: oeuf mayo, duck to share, chocolate mousse and the chef's beef Wellington. The chips are fried in beef fat, a nod to his Belgian roots. It is almost always full, so book ahead. Recommended for anyone in Paris who wants to eat well alongside a serious wine list, within walking distance of Pigalle.
