One of the most historical brasserie at St.Germain de Pres in the 6th Arrondissements of Paris
yea dun ask me why the Metropolitan of Paris is divided into arrondissements
it's "their" thing.....hahahahaha
Paris used to be the World's Largest City from 16th to 19th century
so most buildings in the center arrondissements are really old
even our hotel is 101 years old :)))))))))
and this beautiful classic luxury brasserie is part of the Hotel Lutetia
which is a must go for us
if u are a bread lover, then France is just really for you
with so many Artisan bakeries
eating bread is just never the same again

creamie buttery snails with wild chanterelle mushrooms
how appropriate to pair both produce fr Earth
I mean mushrooms are very earthy and so are snails too!!!
plus the snails were removed fr its shell...makes it so much easier to nom nom nom
but then again eating escargots fr its shell it's another different story altogether
:)))))))))))))))))))))

Caramelised crispy duck with sweet pear
yeah French are really good with duck
anyhow u must try everything
else how would u know if u like it or not?
I have many friends who stereotyped food
sometimes u just need to encourage or FORCE them to TRY
and the surprised look on their faces when they found it not that difficult afterll
but most of all that it's actually yummy and delicious
well same goes to chomping crispy bugs on the streets of Thailand
it's not something that I like/enjoyed
but then after trying it, it's not a terrible snack
and it's high in protein!!!!
after that, we'll alwiz have deep fried bugs with salt and pepper whenever we are in the Land of Smiles
well as the saying goes --> when u r in Rome, do as the Romans do
