PARIS Trip Notes-Part II

The food in Paris is incredible. Topping the list has to be the bread. A still warm baguette is the worlds best value at 0.85 Euro. Eric Kayser's olive bread is a wonderful treat you will never find outside of Paris. Some memorable food experiences are;
Roast Lamb w/flageolet beans in Bistro in Marais.
Blanquette de Veau at Polidor.
Terrine of Pork eaten like meatloaf at La Cave de l'os a Moelle.
Steak Frites at cafe in Epernay.
Confit of Duck at cafe in Versaille.
Picnic on Pont des Arts.
Pain au Chocolats.
I believe that we all had great experiences with the food of Paris.
The Wines of France were reason enough alone, to warrant a trip to Paris. Even table wine, ordered at a cafe or bistro were of superb quality. Never would you be served a glass of wine that was oxidized or stale, as unfortunately is not the case at home. Some highlights included;
Alfred Gratien Champagne in Epernay.
Sparkling Vouvray on the Pont des Arts.
Gamay at the Cave de l'os a Moelle.
Julienas Beaujolais in bistro in Marais.
Loire Valley Whites such as Sancerre,Vouvray and Muscadet everywhere.
Loire Valley reds such as Touraine.
Wine, so good and so inexpensive, in Paris.
