I had some delicious food in newly discovered (for me) restaurants when I was in Paris. But our best meal of the day was often this one—collected on the way back to the apartment and enjoyed with a glass (or two) of wine as we rehashed the high points of the day and planned the next.
Okay, this stuff is beyond yummy, but for me it was mostly a "visual" feast.
I'm with you on the best meal being the marvelous bread, a variety of cheeses and meat -- served up in the apartment or in the park, you can't beat it! Happy New Year!
Yum...cheese (my favourite food). I gave Lorne a really nice cheeseboard for Xmas and went to the British Home shop and got him 4 specialty cheeses that I hope he'll share with me! Happy New Year!
The basics are sometimes the best, but I must confess I love lingering in a French restaurant and not having to clean up. Thanks for playing along today. Here’s my Dreaming of France meme
We've had foraged dinners most nights in Paris- we tend to eat out for lunch and forage amazing things on the way home. Sometimes with red, sometimes with bubbly. You've got one of my favourite cheeses too! The Morbier.

That's how we ate when we were in Paris and what meals those were! I can never forget them. The preparation and then the taste. Amazing.
