Restaurant "Charlot, roi des coquillages", 12 place de Clichy, Paris, 9th arrondissement.LE RESTAURANT "L'ASSIETTE AU BEURRE"
At 11 rue Saint-Benoît, was the theater of the Bilboquet, which had also been named "En bas de l'escalier". It was transformed
in the 1970s into a bistro, under the name of L'Assiette au Beurre (a metaphorical expression for the richly garnished plate of the powerful)
by the fashion designer Jean Bouquin, a Parisian dresser, notably for Brigitte Bardot. Raymond Oliver, who ran the Grand Véfour, delegated his pupil Christian Ignace, who was to make a name for himself at the Petit Bedon, rue Pergolèse. The Art Nouveau decor chosen included old Sarreguemines ceramics, which suggested that the place distributed farm products, while also serving as an oyster bench.
The Layrac brothers, who owned "L'Echaudé", "Le Muniche", then "L'Éperon" and "Allard", founded "Le Petit Zinc" at 25, rue de Buci in 1964. Originally, the restaurant was a neighbourhood bistro that specialised in Auvergne charcuterie, poule au pot and entrecote. Its clientele
was mainly composed of students, young artists and night owls. The restaurant moved from the rue de Buci in June 1990
and reopened the next day at 11, rue Saint-Benoît in place of "L'Assiette au Beurre". It then became a Parisian brasserie, specializing in seafood
seafood, Bresse poultry, Limousin lamb shoulder, Salers prime rib and the famous thickly sliced veal liver steak with rouergate
thickly sliced with rouergate.
