La Fourmi Ailee (the mosquito I presume), get the specialty of the house, Demi Canard en croüte de sel, duck cooked in a salted dough cask – very tasty and a good value too (19.80 E) – enough for two if you get a salad or a appetizer. The beef carpaccio or one of their salads would be a good choice.

Their wine list is short but has adequate selection to accompany the meal.

The menu is formatted like a Trader Joe’s newsletter, including education sidebars. Visit their website for an entertaining story on the history of the Latin Quarter area of Paris.
