This was one of the most incredible experiences I've had in Paris from sommelier Lou giving us a full understanding of wine, I cannot say enough. Most locals don't even know about this place, but it is a historical location that is worth a visit, I highly suggest upgrading your experience for the premier wines and receiving a bottle of wine with a commemorative label. I went with my father who does not drink, but there was a nonalcoholic option for him. At the end of the tour, he was asking where to purchase the grape juices. Inside of the caves, you are transported from Paris to a completely different world of wine and history... Make sure to watch your head, the ceilings are low. Ever room in Les Caves du Louvre were full of history and made you feel like you were eternally out of this world

I attended Le Cordon Bleu (Grand Diplôme program) for 9 months with the hope of learning the…read morefundamentals of cooking, as I had no prior experience. Unfortunately, LCB does not cater to beginners, despite their claims that no experience is required. That simply isn't true!! Classes moved at a relentless pace, leaving little room for actual instruction! Instead of focusing on techniques, we were always rushed and then told what we did wrong. This led to injuries, mistakes, and a lot of unnecessary frustration. If you're new to cooking, this environment is more overwhelming than educational. It became clear that LCB is designed for those who want to work in high-pressure restaurant kitchens. But in my class of 16, only four students had that goal (and most classes had this same ratio). The rest of us were there to learn for personal enrichment, to open a restaurant/ café one day, or to explore culinary arts more deeply. Unfortunately, the program doesn't seem to acknowledge or support those paths. My disappointment isn't with the instructors--(shout out to Chef Caals, Chef Yann, and Chef Hoel), who were excellent given the constraints they were under. The issue lies in the LCB system itself! The program feels more like a factory line (taking your money) than a school, pushing students through their machine, rather than investing in their growth! For the cost and prestige, I expected much more. Le Cordon Bleu needs to rethink how it supports students who are genuinely there to learn, not just to survive the next service rush.

Luc was our guide and chef, and did a really great job. We enjoyed shopping for ingredients at the market just a few blocks away from the Le Foodist kitchen. Once back to the kitchen, Luc gave us the run down of what we would be making. Instructions were clear, and we all worked together to put a 3 course lunch together. I even learned a few cool new techniques such as a simple "sous vide" by tightly wrapping chicken in plastic wrap and cooking in hot water. Fun, educational and delicious. They offer a variety of different classes and I would highly recommend when visiting Paris.

This was hands down one of my most favorite restaurants and experiences I had during my Europe…read moretrip. Frenchies is a wine bar with a number of tapas..think fusion. I was lucky enough to be seated in the first round of customers since I got there 15 minutes before seating. They do not have a reservation system and the wait can be a while after first seating since all the food come out one at a time for all groups. So think, if groups got a specific dish, they'd all get that dish and then the staff would work on the next one to serve, etc. The wine list is endless and there were so many options to try! Note: more bottles than single glasses but worth it considering the ambiance and conversations you can have! Staff is so patient and knowledgeable about the options and even let me try some before I made my decision! I tried 3 of the dishes available, the pork cheeks, the Agnolotti, and the Shrimp Toast. Everything was delicious and I still dream about that shrimp toast to this day. Wish I went with a group so we could try everything on the menu but this just means, I have to go again!

Paris definitely does not have a craft beer culture. This is a real shame because there are many wonderful beers produced in France. But you would be hard pressed to find 95% of them in bars in Paris, even bars known for having good beer. One of your only options is going to Cave a Bulles and buying individual bottles of French beer. If Simon is not busy, you can easily chat with him for an hour about beer. He will help you choose a good variety of beers to bring home, ones that you are probably not going to find in the US. His English is excellent. And If you really want to make a friend, bring him a rare beer from the US (or elsewhere).
