2014 Paris

For a much shorter version, see 2014 Best of Paris in FEATURED.
Another AHI trip - #12 or so but who’s counting. All the ingredients for a great trip - early November in Paris with a small group (6 others), cool weather, not too many other tourists, and lots of unstructured time. Ate from all parts of the food chain, street-food to plush restaurants, and were impressed not only with the quality of the food but with the friendliness of the service.
