I'm trying to choose among these for our anniversary dinner in Paris. Any favorites or non-favorites among them?
Paris: No cheese course?
I have been researching restaurants in Paris - generally of the Michelin one or two star variety - and have found that a few do not seem to offer cheese between the main course and dessert. For example, La Table de Joel Robuchon and Le Restaurant (at L'Hotel). Is this true? Are there other fine restaurants in Paris that don't offer cheese? (We like cheese. The lack of a cheese course would be a bummer.)
Thanks.
Paris: top food, relaxed atmosphere?
My wife and I are going out for dinner in early September for our 15th anniversary. We would like to reserve at a place with absolutely tip-top French cuisine, preferably more classic and traditional, where you're paying for the great food and not fancy decor or stuffy atmosphere. Someone has suggested La Table de Joel Robuchon. Any other recommendations please? Thanks!
Falafel
Just had my first one. I was a fan of Rainbow in Union Square, Alfanoose downtown, and Jerusalem Falafel on the upper upper west side. This one tops 'em all. It's a falafel poem. It was so good that I had another one, even though I wasn't hungry anymore.
