You should re-post this on the France board.
One tip – go to Notre Dame at the opening hour – 9:00 am as I recall – on a weekday. No line. And the cathedral is much better than pre-fire. The carvings - formerly dark blobs - have been cleaned and add so much to the experience
Wrangling 12 folks for dinner sounds daunting!
The markets/food halls might be a consideration, not quite Applebees but offering many options.
This article lists a fews and take a look as the larger department stores, most have offer dining.
Have a great trip!
How about a brasserie or a bouillon?
We’re planning a trip for September and came across this in our research.
