Midnight in Paris (2011)
Owen Wilson's Gil slips back to the 1920s and meets Ernest Hemingway at a table here.
What to order
Bœuf bourguignon, then the tarte tatin
A crémerie in 1845, a bistro since the 1890s: Hemingway really did eat here, and the drawers on the back wall held regulars' napkins. Shared tables, paper tablecloths, fair prices.
