Natacha (Paris: Montpanasse)

By in 01: Paris

La Table de Joel Robuchon (Paris: 17e )

By in 01: Paris, Favorite Food Entries

Le Bar a Soupes (Paris: Bastille)

By in 01: Paris

After rich French food every night (in addition Freda got fever and threw up), we got pretty exhausted. We can’t possibly go eat light gourmet deli food everyday. While strolling in Bastille (my favorite neighborhood in Paris) we saw Le Bar A Soupes. A set of Bread (plain, sesame or poppyseed) + Soup + Dessert […]
