All you can eat restaurant?

I visited Paris in 1974, and was taken out to a restaurant where we had unlimited appetizer, salad and side dishes, and one main course. A great place to take teen age boys. Now that I am traveling with two of them, I was wondering if such a place still exists.

%26quot;All You Can Eat%26quot; (AYCE) isn%26#39;t all that popular here in France. The entire concept of people eating as much as they possible can for as little cash as possible gives some of the French people I know shivers down their back!







I know af about 5 Asian restaurants that offer this in various parts of town for about 10euro per person.





There are also the odd restaurant that may have either a first or second course (main) that%26#39;ll be %26#39;all-you-can-eat%26#39; but there are rare. Pizza Hut has this offer at lunch for example and the Bistro Romain chain has a Beef Carpaccio that%26#39;s AYCE.





FLAMS (www.flams.f) have an AYCE buffet, but you have to actually like those German style pancakes first :)





FLUNCH (www.flunch.fr) is more of a canteen style restaurant which is cheap and has all you can eat veg (fries count as a veg!).





The term in French is %26quot;restaurant �� volonte%26quot; so happy eating !
