Dat Viet
A family Vietnamese near Denfert-Rochereau that cooks Hanoi street food without shortcuts — the bún chả, grilled pork over vermicelli, is the dish to order, and the kitchen makes a point of leaving out the MSG.
Lunch service is quick and the regulars know it; the bún chả is the reason to come. Closed Sunday.

Catacombs are man-made underground passages primarily used for religious purposes, particularly for burial. Any chamber used as a burial place is considered a catacomb, although the word is most commonly associated with the Roman Empire.

Catacombs
1, place Denfert-Rochereau. The bones of approximately six million Parisians, transferred between 1786 and 1860 from overcrowded cemeteries to the limestone quarries beneath the 14th. The accessible visitor section is 1.5 km long, 20 m below street level.
Book a timed ticket online — same-day queues are 2+ hours. Bring a jacket: 14°C year-round. The signed visit ends at a different exit (Rue Rémy-Dumoncel) than the entrance, three blocks south of where you went in.
