Resto 39 Au 35, Paris

A lighter lunch than I would have liked but good service and atmosphere at Au 35.

Listening to Jacques Dutronc's Paris 'Paris s'Eveille' I realised I'd never actually BEEN to the Place Dauphine. Now I have.

We wanted a quick lunch on the way to the Louvre and galettes (or Breton pancakes) seemed a good option.

A round up of the best and the worst of 2016. Le Voltaire takes top prize but who will be the stinker?

Sadly without Gatting we couldn't get a carry out but Les Babines wineshop did have the best value of the weekend.

It's always a mistake to choose your restaurant from the name of a record rather than the food it serves.

On the back of one hour's sleep I break the rules with a return visit to Café Charbon.

'Freshly made cocktails fizzy sour and poured over a colossal goblet full of ice. Already Le Fumoir had become one of my favourite places on earth.'

Another hit in Paris!

Thoughts on Delacroix in London and Paris.

In the footsteps of Nairn. The prices may have gone up since 1968 but the quality endures.
