Bouillon Julien
Canal Saint-Martin
1906 Art Nouveau bouillon, Mucha-style nymphs, listed monument, Édith Piaf's table.
1906 Art Nouveau room on the Left Bank, Chartier's brother house, listed.
The Chartier brothers opened this rue Racine room in 1906 as the Left Bank companion to their Faubourg Montmartre original; architect Jean-Marie Bouvier filled it with the Art Nouveau vegetable motifs and stained glass that earned it monument-listed status in 1995. The kitchen runs more 'careful bourgeois' than strict bouillon, escargots, foie gras, pike quenelles, but the price still lands well below the 6e average and the room is the equal of any Belle Époque interior in Paris. La Liste rates the heritage; Le Figaro and the Sortir guide cover it as a permanent Saint-Germain fixture. The cult-institution exception applies straightforwardly.
Cult-institution exception (1906, listed monument). Pricier than Chartier/Julien, bourgeois menu, not strict bouillon prices.
