Chez Omar - Marais institution

Be sure to arrive with an empty stomach, bring cash and be prepared to queue (you can’t reserve in advance).

Rest assured its well worth the wait, nowhere does couscous, France’s favorite comfort food, in such quantity and quality, like Marais institution Chez Omar.

Omar was here long before the Bretagne branchés but don't be surprised if you catch a glimpse of a famous face or two - psst - is that Yoko and Sean?

too expensive and you will be sitting next to someone else speaking english. Watery vegetable broth for the cous cous and boring starters. I fail to see the attraction even more now than i did "then" when it was so-called hip

If you are not put off by place clichy, please do try "La Tunisiana" for Tunisian home cooking.
