Moveable Feasts: A Story of Paris in Twenty Meals - Chris Newens

Descriere Moveable Feasts: A Story of Paris in Twenty Meals - Chris Newens

A rising-star food writer takes the reader on a gastronomic adventure around Paris to indulge in its irresistible melting-pot of cuisines. \nParis has a justifiable claim to be the center of European gastronomy--but beyond its trademark terrasses and zinc-topped tables, what can its cuisine tell us about the city? Chris Newens, an award-winning food writer and long-time resident of the historic slaughterhouse quartier Villette, takes us on a delightful gastronomic journey around Paris' twenty spiralling arrondissements, seeking out, sampling, and attempting to recreate a dish that represents each as it is today. \n \nHemingway wrote that wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast. From Congolese cat fish in the 18th to Middle Eastern falafels in the 4th, to the charcuterie served at the libertine nightclubs of Pigalle in the 9th, Newens lifts the lid on the city's ever-changing, defining, and irresistible food culture.\n
