Review:

My partner Owl and I came across Le Florentin when looking for a light lunch place after strolling through the Jardin des Tuileries. I love a good salade Niçoise and this was a great one, perfectly balanced. The apple tarte tatin we shared was tasty but too squidgy – it could have done with more pastry and structure. The service was really friendly (we were asked if we were in Paris for Fashion Week, which a lot of the other English-speaking guests clearly were).
