6èME ARRONDISSEMENT. No ordinary neighborhood bistro, Aux Charpentiers lures diners with a warm atmosphere, personal attention and traditional French delicacies. Its fine antique décor pays tribute to the neighboring carpenters' guild. Return patrons include George HW Bush and Dick Cheney. Boudin noir (black pudding), duck confit and foie gras are among the menu's offerings, but inquisitive diners come for the calf's head. End your meal with a classic dessert such as the pear tart, or try baba au rhum, a yeast cake soaked in rum sauce. METRO: Mabillon
