The Food Lover's Guide to Paris Paperback – 31 December 1988

I have only browsed and read a few pages from the book but I can tell that it is full of rich food & beverage information and where to find it. Each chapter has a small intro. That gives you the pertinent information on the topic; I like the one on Fromageries (cheese shops)

Updated and full of detailed information on restaurants, bistros, cafes, The best pastry shops and food emporiums, as well asplaces to buy cooking equipment. Get the inside scoop on where to find the best ice cream in Paris. The well-known and known-only-to-insiders spots are lovingly described, so visitors will not miss out on the very best Paris has to offer, As an armchair travel guide, I am transported to the neighborhoods of Paris in a most delicious way,

No one can compete with Patricia Wells when it comes to writing about food in Paris. I used to love her restaurant reviews in the International Herald Tribune and there really is no culinary corner of Paris that she hasn't discovered. This book is not just about restaurants, bistros, cafes and bars, but also the many specialist food shops and also Paris's wonderful markets. A great reference book, but also a really great read or a book to dip into to pass an idle moment. Anyone who loves food or loves Paris or both will love this book.

comprehensive and easy to read

Very good guide to places to eat and drink in Paris. A new edition should include a map of arrondisements, which is missing from the one I bought.
