Rond
Paris, France
The read// why locals go
Rond is a cider-led crêperie on Rue du Transvaal, tucked into the streets above Parc de Belleville in Paris's 20th arrondissement. It keeps to the Breton canon, savoury buckwheat galettes and sweet crêpes, and treats cider as a proper drinks list rather than an afterthought, which is what separates a crêperie from a pancake stop. The location helps. Rue du Transvaal climbs one of the steepest corners of Belleville, past the park's terraces and one of the widest views over the city, so most people arrive having earned lunch. The surrounding quarter is among the liveliest in Paris; Rond is the warm, low-key room in the middle of it.
