Crunchy and Delicious Fried Veal Cutlets đ
đCoordinates: Paris 14th DistrictâŒïž FI LIA PARIS is the second restaurant I've visited out of 100. It's not in a tourist area but located downstairs from a hotel in the 14th district. This is a reference for those nearby or passing through. It offers fusion cuisineâFrench and Italian, a classic combination. It's humble yet charming, a perfect blend of Mediterranean spirit and Parisian flair.đ„ đ„Octopus Tentacles | They're incredibly bouncy! I mean it! You don't even need a knife and fork for this dish! It's elastic but not tough at all, falling somewhere between chewy and melt-in-your-mouth. The secret is a long, slow bath in olive oil, followed by a quick sear on a hot plate, which brings out the collagen inside. The sauce has pumpkin in it, giving a warm yet refreshing taste, like a sea breeze. This octopus dish is definitely in my top three! đ„©Fried Veal Cutlet | I've been craving this since I was in Milan, but I never had the chance. And here it is! Not just any cutlet, but a fried veal cutlet! If I could only choose one dish, it would be this one. The sound of the crispy coating shattering as you cut into it is pure bliss! It's a huge piece, bone-in and perfectly fried. The meat is juicy and tender; the veal is cooked to perfection. It's worth every bite! Sicilian Rice Balls Can you believe they have Palermo street food here? It's exactly like the original I had in Sicily! There's a touch of hotel elegance to it, from the cheese inside to the grains of rice. The dipping sauce is the best part; the spices mellow out the richness. (Tips: Pair the octopus with Sicilian volcanic white wine, and enjoy the rice balls while they're hot for the perfect gooey center!) #ParisianEats #food #ItalianCuisine #TasteTheFlavors #ParisTravel #FrenchFood #GlobalEatingAdventures #100RestaurantsVisited
