Savoring Paris: A Culinary Adventure in Bastille 🍷🥩
✨ When your Uber driver doubles as a food guide, you know you're in for a treat! He pointed us to a hidden gem in Bastille, and after a quick peek at Google Maps, the rave reviews had us sold. That evening, it was just my husband and me, two adventurous souls ready to dive into the Parisian food scene. Feeling a tad shy, I skipped the photo ops, but trust me, the experience was unforgettable. We indulged in a perfectly cooked steak and beef fillet, both medium rare, paired with a glass of exquisite red wine. Pure bliss! 🍷 ✨ Next stop: Il était une oie dans le Sud Ouest, located at 8 Rue Gustave Flaubert, 75017 Paris. This spot is a haven for foie gras lovers! Walking in, I was greeted by familiar Asian faces and a Chinese menu, which was both comforting and surprising. I couldn't resist trying the fruit foie gras and beef marrow, and they did not disappoint. The flavors were on point, though the confit duck leg was a bit too salty for my taste, not quite matching the delightful duck dishes from back home. Still, it was a culinary journey worth every bite! 😋 #Europe #FrenchCuisine #France #FrenchTourism #FrenchFood #Paris #ParisFood
