Except on Thursday night, when a clientele of mostly local residents is likely to drop in for dinner, Chez La Vieille serves only lunch. Amid a crush of local office workers and visitors to the nearby Louvre, you'll be served the first course and your dessert from a trolley, and wait for the staff to bring your main course directly from the kitchen. This method evokes a large communal meal in a private home or perhaps a boardinghouse. Starters change with the season and the mood of the staff.
