Paris Restaurants Known and Loved
Reviews and contact information for many of the best known Paris
restaurants.
Acclaimed British critic Francis Bown
reviews La Côte St-Jacques in Joigny
"Chef Jean-Michel Lorain ensures that
each plate which leaves his kitchen delights the eye and caresses
the palate. No wonder that every gourmet worthy of the name longs
for the day when he can visit (or return to) La Côte St-Jacques."

A Croissant Tour of Paris
"Looking for the best croissants in Paris? Adam of A LIFE WORTH EATING shows you where to go
to find them!"

Andy Hayler dined at Michel Guérard's Les Prés d'Eugénie earlier this fall and found it in top form
"I was so pleased
with this meal, as I had enjoyed a stunning meal here over a decade
ago and was worried that it may perhaps have deteriorated over that
time, as some 3 star places of that era have. Yet here the chefs see
no need to go chasing after the latest culinary fad, and yet have
not just rested on their laurels and become complacent: the
ingredients and technique here were magnificent."

Adam reviews Restaurant Paul Bocuse for A LIFE WORTH EATING
"From an educational perspective, this was an excellent meal. It was a glimpse into France’s past. This is the first restaurant I’d been to where the dishes were unabashedly traditional but the flavors exciting."

Food Snob enjoys an early Sunday lunch at
L'Ami Louis in Paris
"The cuisine here is easily described: excellent, often humble,
ingredients cooked consummately and served generously."

The Luxeat critic dines at
the famous L'Auberge de L'Ill in Alsace
"I do not doubt the talent of Marc
Haeberlin, the chef of the L'Auberge de L'Ill, but also I don't
understand why he is content to recreate the "classics" of his
father Paul and not bring the cooking to a more exciting level?"

Wine Rating Standards: Against Dumbing Down
Unfortunately the wine ranking systems which are

20 point system.
