A
Huîterie Regis
Hip, trendy, tiny and white, this is the spot for revelling in oysters on crisp winter days. They come only by the dozen, along with fresh bread and butter, but wash them down with a glass of chilled Muscadet and voilà, one perfect lunch. Add coffee and a glass of Sancerre (€26) or be a devil and have some king prawns too (€27.50). A twinset of tables loiter on the pavement outside; otherwise it’s all inside.

Fish la Boissonnerie
A hybrid of a Mediterranean place run by a New Zealander (of Cosi fame) and an American, with its rustic communal seating and bonhomie, Fish has surely taken its cue from London, where such places have been a mainstay for several years. The wine selection is excellent – it’s almost as much a wine bar as a restaurant – and the wonderful old mosaic on the front façade is a delight.

La Mascotte
The Mascot is a small, unassuming spot much frequented by regulars who can’t get enough of its seafood and regional cuisine. In winter, sample shellfish. In summer sit on the terrace and savour delicious fricassée de pétoncles (queen scallops fricassee). Meat lovers, Troyes andouillette (veal tripe sausage) is for you.

Charlot, Roi des Coquillages
‘Charlot, the King of Shellfish’ is an art deco palace that some Parisians think is the best place in town for no-nonsense seafood. The seafood platters and oysters are why everyone is here, but don’t ignore the wonderful fish soup and mains, such as grilled sardines, sole meunière and bouillabaisse (€36).

L'Écailler du Bistrot
Oyster lovers will luurvvv The Bistro Shucker, a neighbourhood resto owned by the daughter of a famous Breton oyster culturist that serves up to a dozen varieties of fresh bivalves, freshly shucked and accompanied by a little lemon juice. Make sure you sample a half-dozen oursins (sea urchins) in March.
