Paris Fondue Restaurants

Fondue is often served at French restaurants.








Fondue, a Swiss dish, is a type of sauce (often cheese) melted and shared in a pot at a table. Food such as bread and meat is then dipped in it. Across France it is one of the most popular types of dishes, and most restaurants serve some form of fondue. As the city of food and love, it is no surprise that a number of restaurants are famous for their fondue menus.


Pain, Vin, Fromages


Pain, Vin, Fromages Restaurant may be a quaint restaurant tucked away in the winding cobblestone streets of Paris, but its fondue menu is anything but small. Locals make the trek to the fondue restaurant for Bourguignon (fondue with oil and diced meat) or Savoyard (melted cheese and potatoes). Pain, Vin, Fromages is rustic with minimal seating, but fondue pots are scattered throughout the restaurant, where you can see your food being prepared.
