Paris Chocolate Bike Tour Could Have Used a David Lebovitz-Inspired Detour
How does a serious eater justify a tour of Paris chocolatiers? In the New York Times, Amy Thomas pedals from shop to shop. There's no way she could have burned off all those chocolates, but it's the kind of rationalization I would use.
Where did she pedal?
Patrick Roger, Michel Chaudon, Pierre Hermé, Christian Constant, Jean-Charles Rochoux, Pierre Marcolini, and Michel Cluziel.
Thomas actually quotes the great Paris-based food blogger and pastry chef David Lebovitz, but in typical Times style the piece doesn't link to Lebovitz's blog, which has an incredibly discerning and passionate Paris chocolate section. My guess is that Thomas used David Lebovitz's blog as the jumping-off point for her story.

I'm so jealous...I've been scrimping and saving for a few years now to go on the Grand Chocolate Adventure tour with David Lebovitz & Mort Rosenblum in Paris. Thanks to this lovely recession, it looks like I may be lining it up for 2010 instead...
