would he join me at his favorite place for dinner?
every Easter would have home made manicotti and aw wonderful baked ham dinner -- after which we finally allowed do to do your Easter baskets.
Made for a nice holiday
lemon meringue pie
there is nothing more difficult than getting this one just right
use a slotted serving spoon as an egg separator. So much easier and if you do it on top of a glass you can let it drain
a toasted bagel , nova lox and chive cream cheese
I'd take some friends, some great champagne and a really great French pastry chef to the best sushi bar in Kyoto
And ask them to provide some of the best fresh fruit in Japan for dessert
then I would make sure that the very last thing I.d tast would be chocolate, wild strawberries and lots and lots of champagne
my favorite chicken story is about the Italian guy on the next block who opened a tiny restaurant that had everyone laughing since he had space to fit sixteen and a gigantic rotisserie that could cook 90 chickens at once.
The joke was on us since his chicken was so wonderful that within a year the takeout business was so good he had to install a bigger rotisserie.

My favorite is a Aux Lyonnais, Ducasse's brasserie by the old Opera.
Super nice service, amazing food and for a crowded little brasserie great ambiance.
I also enjoyed Pinxo, and the King of Hotpots, can't remember the French name, Le Roi du Hotpot au Feu?
I've only eaten in the airport and I don't think that counts...
I'd love to go back and actually spend time in Paris.
I have never been to Paris, but if I get this book I swear I'll call you from (just outside) my newest favorite cafe to report.
There's an unpretentious little spot in the 5ieme arr. not far from the Pantheon called Bistro 24. I still think about the steak tartare, carpaccio and tarte tatin. Convivial and tres Parisienne.
Now as for all you good souls who have yet to visit Paris....you MUST MUST MUST go. Even a few days is better than none and it will exceed your expectations.
La Fourmi Ailee.. I went back for the pear tart 3 times
I will have to come back and tell you after I get a chance to visit Paris!
I was in Paris a few years ago, but I honestly can't remember the names of any of the restaurants!
