LA POULE AU POT - Restaurant Chez Moune Les marcheurs de planete u m a m i I know, this blog has been so neglected it is collecting virtual cobwebs. However, we have not been idle, just that life has been a bit hectic and it is also more instantly gratifying to use other platforms like twitter, instagrams and even Facebook. Donc. there have also been some lovely travels too, to Taipei, London and most recently Kyoto via Osaka. It started with a dinner at this tiny restaurant that seats only 12. We sat at a counter overlooking the open kitchen. The brown foam is soya sauce emulsion, the jelly was made from fish and even the scales were edible. However, all that extravaganza was not even the main point. This was the highlight of the meal. Chef checked at least twice with me, that I wanted the crust. That dinner checked many boxes. That something was this little dish of "vegetables". According to the guide-book that husband referred to, this is not a new phenomenon. The good effect lasted well into weeks. So there we are, our lovely souvenir from Japan.

Brioche Dorée - Groupe le Duff - Accueil I Prefer Paris: Lunch with Lynn/Under 20 Eats: Au Bougnat Lynn happily decided to write the Lunch with Lynn/Under 20 Eats feature this month Through a certain ironic piston, the American connection, we heard about a bistrot on the Ile de la Cité, a block from Notre Dame, 26 rue Chanoinesse, the Au Bougnat, a name which means a coal-seller turned café-owner from the Aveyron, in south central France. Ironically, comparing then-and-now pictures of the Au Bougnat building in the 17th century and the way it looks today, one is struck by the fact that little has changed. What remains are the architectural facts: the building began as a late 18th century house whose hallways were paved with tombstones that no doubt came from the numerous churches that existed in the area. And here’s the joyful news about our lunch. The formula was 14 euros for entrée + plat or plat + dessert. Richard’s duck shepherd’s pie was perfect, a generous round of shredded meat topped with a chantilly of mashed potatoes. Click here to read more about the book and to order. New!
