my favorite spot in paris is called place dauphine, behind the palace of justice {and go visit la sainte chappelle while you're at it}. sit outside at au bar du caveau, have a drink and a snack, and watch the old men play boules in the square under the streetlamps.

Mmmm. My very first visit to Paris, I stayed in a hotel on the Pl Dauphine in what once was a printer's workspace. Extremely primitive, but I was young and it was Paris.
My favorite restaurant our last visit was probably L'Ambassade Auvergne,. You can read about it here: http://stlouiseats.typepad.com/st_louis_eats_and_drinks_/2007/08/paris-restauran.html
Have a swell time!

Where are you going to be?
Places in the 5th arrondissement (Latin Quarter) where I stayed last year:
Academie de la Biere - http://www.academie-biere.com/
Ribouldingue (make reservations, or get there earlier)
There are so many places, many of them pricey and such. But usually any small quaint bistro is excellent. I spent a week there in Paris and the Loire valley and the worst meal I had was still great!
Check this out too if you plan on being near the 5th district http://www.chowhound.com/topics/410823
