Paris Restaurant Help!!
Serious Eaters, I am at a loss and hope you can help!
Many years ago, my parents took me to Europe for my first time, and while we were in Paris they took me to two wonderful restaurants that I can't remember the name of. Now I have a friend going to Paris for the first time, and he's asked me for some recommendations, but... my father has passed away so I can't ask for the names! Google has failed me, so I look to you! Can you help me name these mystery restaurants?
1.) Walking distance from Notre Dame.. Only a few blocks, as I can recall, and down a flight of steps into a rather dim atmosphere. Absolutely amazing couscous, tiny little place, and has been in the same location since the late 1960s, which was when my father first found it.
2.) Near Sacre Coeur, very near, as we could smell it from the steps as we were walking back. A moules place, with lots of white wood, and the moules were served in colourful metal buckets inside large white bowls with big baskets of yummy, crusty bread. Everyone there was eating moules, and I believe it may have been the only thing they actually had on the menu, but lots of different preparations to choose from as all three of us tried something different. There was also a looooong line out front by the time we left. :)
That's all I can remember! Do either of these ring bells for anyone? Many thanks in advance!

Parisian must eats
Some friends and I will be making out first visit to Paris next month. We are looking for advice as to the charcouterie, patisserie, boulangerie, bistros and markets that we shouldn't miss in order to sample the best (or the most French) or Paris. We don't have much interest in the haute end of things, and definitely not any tourist destinations; we would like to take in the sort of special, perhaps off the beaten path food finds that we wouldn't know about on our first trip to the city. Thanks!
