Bouillon Chartier Grands Boulevards
Pigalle & SoPi
The 1896 original, Belle Époque listed dining room, twelve euros for blanquette.
1906 Art Nouveau bouillon, Mucha-style nymphs, listed monument, Édith Piaf's table.
Bouillon Julien opened in 1906 at 16 rue du Faubourg Saint-Denis with Belle Époque ambition the original Chartier never tried for: master glassworker Louis Trezel commissioned for four 'women-flowers' panels in the Mucha vein, Hippolyte Boulenger's tile-work covering the floor, the whole room listed as a historic monument since 1997. Édith Piaf had a regular table here. The restaurant runs as a working bouillon, twelve to fifteen euros for a main, no reservations, daily service, not a museum. For an Istanbul visitor who wants the Belle Époque dining room without the Belle Époque price, Julien is the most beautiful budget meal in Paris.
10e arrondissement. Cult-institution exception (1906, listed monument, Mucha-school decor).
