Petit Paris
Kortrijk, Belgium
The read// why locals go
Petit Paris has been making its own pasta on Rijselsestraat since 1975, in one of the oldest houses in Kortrijk. That is the whole proposition: fresh spaghetti, salads and baked dishes at prices that never became an event, served in a room that has had fifty years to settle into itself. Weekly specials keep the regulars moving through the menu, and the drinks list has grown its own quiet obsessions, including a house Picon and a beer named Claudette. A renovated terrace on Sint-Michielsplein catches the afternoon. It is an eetcafe first and a pasta place always, the sort of address locals name without hesitating when someone asks where to eat cheaply and well.
