Almost Perfect - Mom of 2 -
This book was a fantastic travel companion for our "food tour" of Paris. The only con was that the information regarding Lenotre was incorrect. We planned to enjoy tea there primarily because of the pastry buffet...unfortunately there was no such buffet. In fact, our waitress told us this was only offered during the month of December. The lesson, of course, is to call ahead before you plan an afternoon around a recommendation from a book. If you are a foodie, however, this book is a MUST!
