Chef Michelangelo
Chef Michelangelo takes the meaning of one-man show to new extremes. The shopping, the chopping, the table-waiting, the cooking, the sitting down with guests for a glass of wine while the pasta is boiling… Michelangelo does it all. Dining here in fact is tantamount to being invited to a Sicilian chef’s house for dinner. There are things to know, of course: 1) there are only 14 chairs (everyone eats at a long table in front of the open kitchen) so reservations are mandatory; 2) Michelangelo chooses the menu (three courses, about €25, cash only), so be prepared to eat anything; and 3) all the products – the olive oil, the wine (from €28 per bottle), the cheese – come from…

Palais Des Rajpout
Joining rue du Faubourg St-Denis and blvd de Strasbourg in the 10e, this old-style covered arcade could easily be in Calcutta. Its incredibly cheap Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi cafés offer among the best-value lunches in Paris (meat curry, rice and a tiny salad €5 to €9.50, chicken or lamb biryani €10.50 to €14.50, thalis €7 to €9.50). Dinner menus are from €12.50 to €24 but it must be said that most of the eateries here offer subcontinental food à la française, There are lots of places to choose from, but the pick of the crop are Palais des Rajpout, Passage de Pondicherry and Pooja.

Le Palais Bleu
It’s not cheap but this stylish eatery just opposite Cathédrale St-Pierre, that looks more like a stylish farmhouse than the ‘Blue Palace’ that its name describes, is the place in Beauvais to sample la cuisine picarde (Picardy cuisine). Go for flamiche (leek and egg savoury tart), ficelle picarde (ham and mushroom crêpe) or the inventive tiramisu with bacon and crème de chorizo (cream of chorizo sausage).

Les Vents d’Anges
A straw poll among local people suggests that this restaurant in the shadow of the Église de St-Étienne (Church of St Stephen) about 150m south of the tourist office is the best in town. It serves traditional but inventive French cuisine and its own wines in bright, upbeat surroundings.

Choucroute garnie (sauerkraut with assorted meats), oysters on the half-shell and a skylit dome in the centre – it’s Central Casting Alsatian-style in Picardy. But the welcome is warm, the location central and the menus more than affordable.
