ABOUT THEEXPERIENCE

If you have been dreaming of having the ultimate foodie experience in Paris then look no further. Come experience a typical Parisian dining experience at my place.

First, we'll have an apéritif in my living room decorated with XVIIIth century woodworks, paintings and furniture. We'll then move on to the dining room where I will serve you a three course meal and you can experience French food with a local. I've been brought up with French dishes such as Boeuf Bourguignon (classic French beef stew), Petit Salé aux Lentilles (a stew of boiled cured pork belly with puy letils), Hachis Parmentier (similar to a Cottage Pie), but I like adding a touch of modernity to it. My inspiration comes from the vibrant Parisian cooking scene, as well as the seasons and produce it brings to the market. My cooking thus varies from one season to another and I cook only with the freshest ingredients in order to make a delightful, tasty and memorable meal.

Wine will also be served. I have my own cellar but please let me know if you have any specific requests.

ABOUT THEMENU

A typical winter menu could include :

As a starter : cream of pumpkin or mushroom sauté

As a main dish : boeuf bourguignon, duck hachis parmentier or lamb shoulder with spices
(please do not hesitate to let me know if you prefer a vegetarian dish)

Plate of cheese from the market

As a desert : poire au vin, mousse au chocolat or panacotta with berries

ABOUT THELOCATION

I live steps away of the Champs-Elysées in a typical Haussmanian appartment built in the 19th century. It is very central with a lot of public transportation and taxi stations around. The surroundings include some major museums such as the Grand Palais, the Petit Palais, the Jacquemart-André museum, the Musée du Jeu de paume for photography and l'Orangerie where Monet's nympheas are on display. The Modern art museum is also at walking distance as well the Galliera Museum. It's perfect to come here for a lesson in French cooking after a day exploring the capital!

We had a wonderful time spending the evening with Florence in her beautiful home with the "special door", our two granddaughters love it. Florence is not only an excellent cook but very gracious and she never flinched answering our, at times, nosy questions. Our experience with this introduction to BonAppentour is the reason I am attempting to book more in-home dinning experiences. Regards, jim caso

Florence was a very gracious hostess and a good conversationalist. The spacious, gilded apartment is beautiful, decorated in the old-world style with art, orchids, and antiques. Of course, the food was excellent. Florence is a chef who also teaches cooking, and every dish she prepared, from appetizers to dessert were a concert of flavors and texture.

When you enter the "appartment" it is as if you are in Belle Epoque Paris but with all the modern conveniences. Dining with Florence, a charming hostess, is a 5 star experience; the beautifully plated meal that she served was made with all fresh ingredients and beautifully plated. She will help you to select a wine that complements your dinner. A plus is that she knows all the shops to buy gourmet foods and sturdy pans to bring back home. We hope to return soon for a real Parisian experience. Luci and Bill
