The menu consists of salads, sandwiches, coffee and other drinks. Le Pré Verre 8, rue Thénard, between Métros Cluny-sorbonne and Maubert Mutualité. A good place for a nice dinner. The food here is French with a twist of spices, very good without being too pretentious. Expect about 40 Euro per person including wine. Académie de la Bière 88-bis Boulevard De Port-Royal near RER Port-Royal. A very laid back place, serving light meals (moules frites and croque monsieur).

A small take-out place that makes good Lebanese mannaeesh, a flat bread best with zaatar (a mixture made of an herb related to marjoram and oregano, sesame and sumac) and labne (yogurt cheese). Christian Constant 37 rue d'Assas, near the Luxembourg gardens makes really good chocolate. Le Boulanger de Monge 123 rue Monge near Censier Daubenton has some of the best bread in Paris.
