Ok, that’s not French, but…

Ah! A real Vietnamese Bobun: If you really want to go for it, plan well ahead because a full afternoon filled with preparations will pass by.

France: Where you want to eat…

February 3, 2013 by Ullrich

I’ve been out of Paris over the week-end, we’ve visited a dog breeder’s farm in the Sologne region to find us a new flat coated retriever but our short trip happened to turn into a culinary excursion, too. We roamed close to Aubigny-sur-Nèr, that’s very close to the banks of the Loire, so close, in fact, that we had to fight some inundations on the way.

When 3 stars aren’t sparkling…

Grand Véfour means grand spectacle…

March 15, 2010 by Ullrich

…even if Guy Martin’s restaurant has lost its third Michelin-star some time ago. I’ve eaten there when he was still in three-star-heaven but already going down a bit. The ravioli filled with foie gras were nice though, as was the classic Poulet de Bresse. Don’t expect experiments in a restaurant founded in 1760! Here, the menu still reads like a poem of the good old bourgeois days, before the financial crisis, that is: Brittany lobsters, caviar, fat soles and frog […]
