Le Baudelaire at Le Burgundy Hotel 6/8, rue Duphot 75001 Paris Tél. 01 42 60 34 12 As an ex-pat in Paris, it’s easy to drop into Anglophone life.

Ferdi 32, Rue du Mont-Thabor 75001 Paris Tel : 01 42 60 82 52 This year I was rather lucky & had a weeks long drawn out birthday with many mini-gettogethers & surprises. A few weeks after the actual day, fellow food-loving friends, Fred & Lauren, invited me to dinner at Pinxo for more belated […]
