After walking probably 10km around Paris during the day I ended up back at Albe Hôtel and after a rest I decided to try another restaurant close by to the hotel for dinner.
Les Balkans, Saint-Michel, Paris, France
Unfortunately I decided to eat at Les Balkans, right next door to the hotel.
I was earlyish so I didn’t expect too many people there, but I was the first, and only patron it would turn out, while I was there.
I ordered a salami pizza and a beer.
The pizza was very underwhelming. Not much flavour and quite oily.
What really turned me off was the lack of service. The waiter and the chef just stood at the bar talking. They didn’t notice that I had finished my beer so didn’t ask if I may want another.
After I finished my pizza, they didn’t notice, and I had to frantically wave to get their attention so I could pay and leave.
Do yourself a favour, avoid this place. There are so many decent restaurants within 100m where you will get great food and decent service.
