Pitchi Poi

Pitchi Poi restaurant in Paris honours the Marais as the traditional home of the Jewish community by serving every favourite, nostalgia-inflected dish of Yiddishland. A generous awning covers coveted outside seating, while the interior is warmth itself with sunshine yellow walls, classic bistro seating, lingerable banquettes and white table linens. This delightful corner restaurant in peaceful, traffic-free Place du Marche Ste Catherine is a welcoming haven that offers the best of Polish, Russian and Central European Jewish cooking: gefilte fish, bagels, herring and an impressive array of flavoured vodkas. In summer, the covered terrace seating attracts artists, writers and politicians, particularly at weekend brunch time.
