Christmas Tastings....In Paris
How do you spend Christmas in Paris? From the culinary perspective, that is!First, you must visit the markets for the seasonal treats.And, of course, visit the best pastry shops! We led a pastry and chocolate tasting to taste some of the best of what Paris has to offer....ho ho ho!After walking through the shops and munching on things like millefeuille, lemon tart, madeleines, candied chestnuts, and more, we took a stroll through the Luxembourg Gardens and St Sulpice. Then we relaxed in our own private lounge, sipping real Hot Chocolate and sampling artisan pastries and a selection of 5 different chocolates and caramels.Of course, we also had "real meals"! Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas. We will. We'll be dining in a cozy traditional bistro on French fare such as oysters, foie gras, scallops, truffles, lamb, bass and duck...What are your favorite holiday dishes to dine on if you are away for the holidays?What says "Christmas" to you when you sit at your table? And, what would you try if you were in Paris --during the holidays or any time?
