Eating and Drinking in Paris: French Menu Reader and Restaurant Guide (The What Kind of Food Am I? series)

Rating:
Summary: Incredibly helpful!
Review: This little book - the size is perfect for a purse - was indispensible in Paris. I don't speak French but this guide book let us be confident about what we were ordering without hesitation. It was often borrowed by people at other tables who were having a difficult time. Loved the little "handwritten" notations in the margins.

Review: We just took this book with us in November 2003 on our vaction in France: Paris, Loire Valley, and Normandy. We only used the Menu guide portion (which is the majority of the book), not the restaurant recommendations. I had this book out at every meal, and it saved us MANY times from making ordering mistakes. For tips on dining in France, I also highly recommend reading "Savoir-Flair: 211 Tips for Enjoying France and the French." Our trip would have not gone so well without either of these books!

Review: What a great book. You never have to wait in horror to find out whether you ordered sheeps tongue instead of steak. This book takes the mystery out of ordering at a French restaurant. A necessary addition for any traveler to Paris
