Where to eat · Vegan Afro-Caribbean · € · 10e · Canal Saint-Martin & Gare du Nord
Jah Jah by Le Tricycle
A vegan Afro-Caribbean kitchen that grew out of three years selling hot dogs off a delivery tricycle. The daily bowls stack grains, legumes and sauce-slicked vegetables, flanked by cauliflower wings and the namesake hot dog.
It gets crowded after 19:00 with shared tables, so come early or aim for the afternoon tea window.

Le Grand Rex
1 Boulevard Poissonnière, opened December 1932 — the largest cinema in Europe (2,800 seats), and still operating. Art Deco facade, fortress-style spire, Spanish-Mediterranean themed interior with painted starry ceiling that has its own weather (clouds drift across before the film). Classified historic monument 1981.
Worth seeing a film in the main hall (Salle Grand Rex) — the smaller side rooms are ordinary. There's a backstage tour (les coulisses du cinéma) that includes the projection booth. The starry-ceiling 'meteo' starts about 15 min before the show.
Within a few minutes' walk
- New MorningJazz club€€ · 1 minA 450-capacity room running since 1981, broad enough in its booking to put gospel, the Bad Plus, Kenny Garrett and Joshua Redman in a single fortnight.
- Urfa DürümKurdish / Turkish dürüm€ · 2 minA counter doing chicken or kefta dürüm grilled to order and rolled in a thin galette with herbs and onion — among the best cheap eats on Faubourg Saint-Denis.
- 52 Faubourg Saint-DenisNeo-bistro€€ · 3 minA walk-in-only neo-bistro from the Compagnon group with a short rotating menu — the egg-yolk ravioli with ham and mushroom is the signature.
- Le SyndicatSpeakeasy bar€€ · 3 minThe storefront is papered over with torn gig posters; the only signal is a gold metallic curtain. Inside, every cocktail is built exclusively from French spirits — Armagnac, Cognac, Calvados, Chartreuse.
- PoulicheNeo-bistro€€ · 3 minAmandine Chaignot's dining room trades on shared starters and a precise seasonal main, and at weekday lunch it stays inside the €30 line that her dinner menu abandons. Sundays bring a roast chicken carved at the table.
- La Reine du KashmirIndian / Pakistani€ · 4 minOne of the steadier kitchens in the covered Passage Brady, the glass-roofed alley of South Asian restaurants behind Strasbourg–Saint-Denis. Skip the touts working the passage and order the biryani or a tandoori-grill thali.
The district · 10e
Canal Saint-Martin & Gare du Nord — Canal ParisThe locks and iron footbridges of the Canal Saint-Martin, the South Asian Passage Brady, the Faubourg Saint-Denis food strip, and two big stations. Young, mixed, and where a lot of the good cheap eating is.
Best for: Twenty-somethings and food-first travellers; lively rather than pretty.
