The Food Lover's Guide to Paris: The Best Restaurants, Bistros, Cafes, Markets, Bakeries, and More
Patricia Wells
It's the definitive, all-encompassing guide to the very best of Paris's gastronomic delights. Patricia Wells - inveterate culinary explorer and trusted ambassador of all things French - brings us the very best of the City of Light: not only unforgettable evenings in her carefully curated selection of restaurants, bistros, and caf?s, but the places to find the flakiest croissants, earthiest charcuteries, sublimest cheeses, baguettes with that golden ratio of crunchy crust to tender interior, most knowledgeable wine merchants, and tableware so fine it would make the simplest meal fit for your fussy in-laws. Whether the urge is a simple one, like satisfying a mid-afternoon sweet tooth on rue Rambuteau (try Pain de Sucre), or grander - deciding between vaunted Pierre Gagnaire or the "littlejewelbox" Yam'Tcha - Patricia Wells's guidance is infallible. She tells us what is new and wonderful and what is gloriously familiar and still to be treasured. Written in an authoritative, engaging style, Patricia's prose is lush and elegant, providing equal delight to the armchair traveler and the hungry visitor thumbing through the pages on Paris's streets. Helpful features include: up-to-the-minute information on locations and contacts (street addresses, metro stops, websites, telephone numbers), a French/English food glossary, and quick-reference indexes so you eat only the best, whatever your tastes and location. Fully illustrated with gorgeous, evocative black and white photography throughout.
