21/08/2024: Staying in France during the Olympics, my husband and I wanted to ensure we'd avoid the crazy traffic of Paris before catching our flight. So we decided to stay close to the airport at a completely new and unfamiliar area to us. Sadly, with an area like that, there are not too many food choices, so when it came time for dinner, we were struggling to find an authentic French place to enjoy one last French meal before leaving Europe. The one we finally decided on was Chez David, and boy are we happy we did! First and foremost, the family-owned warm and welcoming vibes accompanied us from the moment we walked through the door right until we left. The incredible father-daughter duo managed to deliver a dining experience we would've been beyond happy to receive at some fancy restaurant next to the Eiffel Tower, not to mention a small restaurant on the outskirts of Paris! The service was the most authentic, friendly and accommodating we've probably ever experienced in France. From giving food recommendations to providing samples of wine for us to choose our favourite, the service was nothing short of amazing. However, the absolute highlight of our visit was the food. We ordered a small set of escargot, which was seasoned perfectly and went down an absolute treat. Since we weren't too hungry, for the main course we shared some seared scallops, which were cooked to perfection and probably the best scallops I've ever had! The sauce they were served with was full of flavor and absolutely delectable! On the side, we shared a Caprese-style salad, with the sweetest, juiciest tomatoes and deliciously creamy mozzarella. All in all, should you ever find yourself in the area, a visit to Chez David is an absolute must! PS! The prices compared to the city center are also an absolute treat!
