I’m a little in love with Jamie and Marie.
Since 2004, this Franco-American couple has been raising some of the coolest restaurants (and children) in Paris. Outposts of their Pink Flamingo pizza empire open unerringly in the neighborhoods that need them most – places filled with broke hipsters, post-punk parents, and picnic lovers of every stripe.

Tartes Kluger

I began to wonder, while sitting at the communal table and trying to fork the last stray strands of an arugula salad, could Tartes Kluger be the most bobo meal I’ve ever had? Before I continue, let me define that term. The word “bobo” – a contraction of bourgeois and bohemian - is one that

The men and woman in blue (the team comprised of Daniel, Mary-Aude, Josh, Sylvain and Fabrice) were mightily outnumbered last night as their new épicerie was stormed by a mob of gourmands with a nose for free wine and snacks.
For the lucky/sturdy souls who managed to battle through the bloggers, there were winemakers (Catherine Breton,
My Porn Career to Date

I started a photo blog four months ago called Paris Daily Porn.
Saucy title aside, there’s nothing randy about this site – save for the occasional naked man swimming in the Canal Saint-Martin. I suppose that one could see something sexy in a photo of gaspacho pouring forth from a porcelain pitcher. But I never intended

When I walk through the door at Goumanyat et son Royaume, I’m greeted by a cascade of bells and then the trickle of an indoor waterfall. It’s a brief moment of calm before the sensory overload begins. I’m in the best spice shop in Paris, and my eyes and nose are going to be working

I don’t actually recognise the place, and though the little square drawers remind me of the Chinese herb shops where one can cure aches and pains inside and out, it can’t be that… So…Herbs… Goumanyat?? Never been, but know it’s “famous”.

That’s Goumanyat (spelling?) and I’m guessing that it’s saffron.
I went to Du Pain et Des Idees yesterday and bought that lovely pain des amies at your suggestion. Beautiful shop, great bread, but a trek and a half for me. Will you ever find some treats west of Concorde? (Some of us can’t help that we live on this side of town. Not complaining. I’m just saying.)
