Cocktail Hour Meets ... L'APÉRO - Jeremy Cooper
Paris
While this book focuses on individual wine regions, we simply couldn’t ignore the capital—the City of Lights. Most of our trips began or ended in Paris. We survived Y2K in Paris, and many special birthdays have been, and will continue to be, celebrated in Paris.
There are so many positive memories. The food. Our experiences run the gamut, from Michelin-starred restaurants, including dinner at Alain Ducasse au Plaza Athénée (still the most expensive meal we have ever had) and lunch at Taillevent, to our favorite brasserie (Bofinger near the Bastille), to döner kebabs in the Marais. Long lunches at cafés in the 8th. Or the time we treated ourselves to a stay at the Ritz (during Fashion Week!) and ordered steak tartare from room service (prepared to our specifications in our room by two tuxedoed attendants while we watched in our robes).
The museums. Multiple trips to the Louvre, the Musée d’Orsay, Le Centre Pompidou (with its multiple street performers in the plaza outside), the Rodin. Shopping. Neckties (when we still wore them) and a complete silver setting from Hermès . . . back when the USD was strong! Strolls down St. Germain. The artful food and great chocolates at Fauchon at Place de la Madeleine.
And the time we took our young son on his first trip overseas. Eating a very messy chocolate crepe, gazing up at the Eiffel Tower, showing him the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo, lunch at Maxime’s, him literally skipping along the streets of Montmartre. Naively listening to the hotel concierge’s recommendation that taking him to the dinner show at the Moulin Rouge cabaret (our table was nearly on the stage and he caught a feather from the boa of a topless performer) was age-appropriate (he was sworn to secrecy until high school graduation). A day trip to
