Hong Kong: Foodie gift recommendations?
Fellow Chowhounds,
Do any of you have any recommendations for edible gifts to bring home from Hong Kong? Preferably something sweet and portable -- they will need to survive a 15 hour flight and make it safely through customs.
Thank you!
portland restaurant choices - help please!
hi chowhounds-
trying to decide for a dinner at either sel gris, le pigeon, or laurelhurst market. which is best for a combination of food and ambience? recommendations for must-haves at your locale of choice are also much appreciated!
thanks very much in advance!
Question: Le Baratin
Ok thanks - do you (or anyone else) have any recommendations for a bistronomique can't miss dinner besides Chez l'Ami Jean, la Regalade, Chez Josephine, la Pre Verre?
We're looking for something not terribly expensive (around 25-50€), outooor seating a plus, but if the food is really excellent, not terribly important.
Question: Le Baratin
Hi Chowhounds,
Have some friends passing through Paris this weekend, and we would love to go to Le Baratin for dinner. I called for a reservation for Saturday night, but they are full - would it be worthwhile to trek over around 7 to see if they could possibly fit us in??
A Week in Paris - help?
From 24-31 July, just before everything closes! Not the best time for oysters, but my dad will appreciate the gesture.
A Week in Paris - help?
I will be in Paris for one week with my parents, who are going for the first time, to celebrate my birthday. I would love recommendations for a birthday dinner. The sky's the limit for prices, and my parents don't drink wine, so a glass of champagne and maybe a digestif after dinner is really all that will grace the table in terms of drinks.
My initial thought was to do the tasting menu at Guy Savoy....thoughts? other recommendations?
Other places for more casual dinners would be much appreciated, as well as traditional French bistro type lunch spots in the 16th. And the best place for oysters? (My father has an oyster farm, so this one's particularly important.) My parents care most about the quality of the food, but as it's their first time in Paris, I would also love recommendations for places with historical significance, that are particularly Parisian/French, and/or beautiful.
...Souphie??
