Curious what kind of camera set do you use to film your adventures? Thanks so much for all the great reviews.
Could you please highlight good restaurants and meals but with smaller portions.
The Riz au Lait was outstanding. Far better than the BB at Au Vieux Comptoir.
I’ve probably said this before, but you’re the absolute best and enjoyable food blogger around. I hate the word ‘classy’ but that sums you up. We certainly share a similar taste in food! Thanks so much. Merci bien.
Alain, I follow you as I think you to be for all people not just tourists as some vloggers are. Always impartial and good taste.
However…Ketchup on a steak tartare? Why not put ketchup on a filet mignon? I think maybe you are courting too many Americans (which I am) so I can speak to this. To use ketchup as a condiment is embarrassing to me as we are in France, not Pittsburgh, so want to enjoy the French experience, not American. Forgive me but I speak for many I'm sure. Merci beaucoup
I don't think all the dishes on the "Petit Retro" menu, or any other restaurant that have so many dishes on its menu, are cooked on order. There is no doubt in my mind that most of these dishes if not all are industrial food.
A bad idea watching this and I am on a fast.
I need to try Au Vieux Comptoir
That Boeuf Bourguignon looked amazing.
The crème brûlée was burnt? I know what crème is, but what does brûlée mean?😂😂😂😂
Excellent food reviews. Sub'd.
The name Steak Tartare actually comes from the tartars, who is said to have put their fresh shot meat under their saddles to "prepare" it. for how long, I don't know. Steak Tartar is also common in Sweden under the name of Raabiff. Raw beef. Or Halstrad, (brulee).
very informative. good work as I am a restaurant owner myself
Bonsoir Alain, we are finally here now and have a booking at Bofinger tomorrow night based on your original recommendation 😊 if we see you there we will buy you a drink!
well that was 44 minutes and 46 seconds well spent. I really enjoyed your reveiws, especially having eaten in a couple of them.
In my opinion, very reasonable prices. We live during winter in Mexico and during summer in The Netherlands. My Mexican wife and I have 2 dinners a year on our birthdays at our favorite restaurant, so we don't mind the price. The last dinner we had was on my birthday on June 1st., visiting family in Mexico, and the total bill was 2800 pesos, 140 euros. The rest of the year we cook. She, the Mexican dishes and I, the European and Asian dishes. I learned cooking relatively late in life and studied the books by Escoffier and Bocuse. Not necessarily the recipes but techniques. I'm retired and have a sea of time, and I enjoy cooking, and eating, very much. You pointed the way for our next visits to Paris. Merci.
la blanquette de veau est un plat inventé par les normands …
