today, i fell in love with bread :)
it is my belief that staying in france, the day will inevitably come when one bites into a loaf of pure heavenly goodness ,crispy outside, fluffy inside, that makes you a slave to it
mine came in the form of a 2-euro football-sized loaf from carrefour, which i apprehensively took a bite of after check out. and then i just couldn’t resist tearing at it, finishing a quarter of it even before making it back home.
happiness :)
If I’m ever cooking lamb THIS is how I’m gonna make it.
Had my first ever meal at a bouchon lyonnais today. A narrow, unassuming shopfront decorated with the famous Guignol puppet of Lyon greeted us as we slowly navigated through the aisle, careful not to bump into any of the waiters or diners littering the tiny restaurant. A door by the wine cellar opened to reveal a room bustling full of local diners; we slowly moved to our allocated table, tucked neatly in a corner of the room, while soaking up the convivial atmosphere rarely seen elsewhere in France.
What followed was a hearty meal of local oddities (mine was the tamest of all; think beef trips in a stew or sausages stuffed with chitterlings), with spirited chatter over glasses of beaujolais occasionally punctuated by quips and jokes from the affable maître d’hôtel. With food living up to Lyon’s reputation as the capital of gastronomy in France (and henceforth the world) and the intensely personal touch of the attentive serveurs, a meal in a bouchon truly makes for an unforgettable experience.

"Eel is quite a treat. There’s something different about it, compared to other foods. Certain foods can take the place of others, but in my experience, nothing can take the place of eel."
