L’Arpège: I think I get it
“If you ‘get it’, it will move you…” So said a fellow food blogger in the hours before my visit to l’Arpège.
I am dumb, five hours after setting down the fork, with neither appetite nor words. But I do think, just maybe, that I get it.
I’ll update this later with annotations and some thoughts about the world’s most expensive turnips. But for now, a few images from my first-ever three-star lunch.

omg, merely the photos move me…
Tell me about it…
So incredibly jealous…
Great photos Meg….
yeah – wow, great photos.
damn you! I’ve been drooling all over your flickr stream, but it’s only half the fun without any descriptions! I need to know exactly what I’m looking at, woman.
Oh, the torture times two. One, looking at these delectables while hungry; and two, not knowing what I’m looking at.
With shots like that, words aren’t necessary. (Though I would very much like to know about that dessert…)
Exquisite shots! they make me wanna run there.
That veggie/crack cocaine place was my most expensive meal ever when I went there..
Meg, I’m looking forward to your post. After eating twice at Arpege, I still don’t get it. Enlighten me!
Beyond jealous.
