The Paris Gourmet: Restaurants, Shops, Recipes, Tips (Flammarion Chic Lifestyle)

This will be very handy to dip into whilst on holiday in Paris. It covers alot of ground re shopping and the best places to eat and visit. There are some good tips within the book and covers lovely places to eat. Cafes, restaurants, tea rooms...icecream and cakes...A nice book to browse whilst sipping that Kir and planning your next move!

I ordered this book because it is exactly what I would hope for to guide me through a gastronomic week in Paris at reasonable cost.Having read it, I ordered another copy for my daughter and her family in Windsor, all of whom will visit Paris for some reason during the next twelve months.

Excellent guide to food markets, restaurants and places to visit in Paris. Would definitely recommend as an interesting guide if you enjoy food and wandering about in Paris.

I bought this for the inside on Paris food markets. I think it will be good for this, but it will require 'road testing' There are lots of tips on fashionable restaurants, which I suspect will be out of date when we go there shortly

Although this is a nicely packaged book with the characteristic lovely Flammarion graphics, it is a derivative, amateurish work. My library includes dozens of books on Paris and France, but this will not have a place on my shelves. The reviews appear to be taken from other works and the featured restaurants include several widely derided, "tired" venues, a fact which the author actually acknowledges ! I intended to give this as holiday gifts to fellow Francophiles, but have returned the purchased copies to Amazon. This is a pathetic, cynical effort to capture the market for Paris aficionados. Buy Alexandro Lobrano's "Hungry For Paris" instead. I would give this zero stars.
