Paris, France

Paris is without a doubt the ultimate Culinary Mecca. It is “the” place that every food enthusiast must visit once in their lifetime! It is indeed the most gastronomic city in the world. The city is so full of outstandingly excellent food establishments, that it is almost impossible to choose among the wealth of choices. With food that is guaranteed to be sublime and service that is impeccable, Paris food joints stop at nothing to ensure a meal that pleases all the senses. What struck me the most about Paris was the utmost passion and love for food that Parisians have! They are so passionate about food and it sure reflects in the impeccable quality of food. I enjoyed every single meal I ate in my 2 weeks there. Every experience right from my morning coffee and chocolate croissant at the hole in the wall hotel I stayed at in Marais to the salmon omelet in Dalayou to the melt in the mouth macaroons in Pierre Hermes was perfection redefined! If there is a thing called culinary h(e)aven, it sure is Paris!

When I left Paris, I had only two thoughts; one, I would learn French and second, I would put up with the gloomy weather (it was cloudy & damp; rainy for the entire 2 weeks I was there) for the rest of my life if I could savor this food!
