I just got back home from Paris yesterday. I plan on baking a Camembert and eating it with a baguette and fig jam later today. The cheese in France 🇫🇷 is unmatched.
My neighborhood. The Laurent Dubois selections were on point! Marion is absolutely adorable. She could read an instruction manual and I would be mesmerized.
Of all your episodes, this was probably my favourite, Paris, Cheese, French wine, all my favourite worlds colliding . I MUST get to Paris soon . But, until then I live vicariously through your channel
For those who are a bit apprehensive about trying smelly French cheeses. There’s one from Burgundy called Delice de Bourgogne, which is a very soft cow’s milk cheese, with a very creamy texture, but almost no funk. The suggestion here for the Crottin de Chavignol is solid. The village of Chavignol is primarily famous for its white wine, Sancerre de Chavignol,which is (surprise) a prefect pairing. Sante!
Brillat-Savarin is one of my favorite cheese. You can even prepare it with black truffle and let it rest for several day so the truffle flavor infuses in the whole cheese, and that's just marvellous. They sell this king of cheese in a retail chain in France called "Grand Frais" under the name "crémeux de Bourgogne" if I remember well. Quite expensive but the rare times I go there, I indulge myself as I don't have a cheese shop close to home. PS: The Langres is a marvellous cheese too!
I used to be a high end cheese salesman in Australia. Selling to only the best restaurants and delicatessens in Melbourne. This, to me, would be the perfect afternoon spent well. 😁
@@dougb.2627 recession hit, about 40% of top restaurants closed and people couldn't afford what I was selling. We tried to pivot, but 3 out of 5 of us were laid off 😪
Good morning, all: What a way to wake up in NYC with this incredible cheese market tour! Marion has done a fabulous job explaining the process of cheese making in France. We have an outstanding cheese market here in Greenwich Village and I took several photos with my phone so I can check them out at some point over the weekend. Maybe they have some of them --- maybe they don't --- it will be an adventure! Many thanks from NYC ! Cheers!
Me and my gal are arriving Oct 15th for 6 days. And because of your videos we are stopping here and also we booked the Le Calife river boat cruise. Thanks for your work and great information for newbies coming over to visit.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel Here now. Staying at the Hotel Normandy. Just finished the Louvre today. What weather !!!! Walked the Ponte De Arts. Got a lock on it. :). Walked Ponte de Alexander. Stopped by Calife to see it. Can’t wait to get on it tomorrow night. Eiffel Tower for lunch tomorrow too. . And we literally said today, “be on the lookout for Les Frenchies”. Lol.
Great video ! 👍❤ I like your sense of humor ! 😂 As a French, i like almost all cheeses, except blue cheeses and Camembert. And like you said, Brillat-Savarin is the best !
Bonjour. We are back from our Mediterranean adventure did get to Marseilles, Cannes and Nice. Good to be home and watching you drink wine and eat cheese in Paris🍷😊
Another great video. Next time put a list of all thed food you try if it´s cheese or something similiar. Another great frnech cheese are Brillat Savarin. That is a must to try
Outstanding video. Thank you very much. My daughter and I have done culinary tours in multiple countries. I can’t wait to book a tour with your friend. 😘
I was salivating watching all of you eat all that wonderful cheese. I will definitely have to take this cheese tour on my next trip to Paris, which unfortunately will not be until next year since I was just there in June.
I am now in the mood for a cheese board!❤ My husband always takes the nose of the cheese because he only like the creamy bits. He never eats the rind even from the softest brie. So irritating 😅
We live in Saint Martin. Every couple of weeks we go to the French Side grocery stores, and have to pick our cheeses. We lack the discipline to remember or take note of which we liked best week to week. Truth is, we've never come across one we didn't like. A far cry from our grocery store choices in Canada.
Just came back from Paris, soft cheese is one of reasons I want to go back to France. But The restaurants in Paris are terrible, 90% are traps. The fresh markets you have recommended are great though! A lot of homemade fresh food that tastes great! Thanks for all the videos and hard work!
We will be in Paris in about 10 days, have been watching your channel for a couple years and bought your guides for our visit. We were wondering if anyone can bring in cheese and baguette like you did into the wine bar? Or was that possible because of Marion? Thank you for brining us so much joy from your adventures!
Buy the wine, the cheese and the baguette, and enjoy it at the place you're going to stay. Or find a place where you can have wine with a board of cheese. There are many "bars à vin" where it's possible. or book a tour with Marion!
@@nathalierossi8547 Sadly Marion isn’t available for the dates we will be in Paris. We will likely do as you suggested and take it elsewhere, but we really liked the atmosphere of the wine shop and thought perhaps we could do a wine tasting of glasses for the different cheeses.
I would love to see a video about cheese tasting for your viewers who don't drink alcohol. You always seem to be having so much fun. I've yet to see a cheese tasting tour or walk that doesn't include drinking so I've never booked one.
@@kathleen4083 I understand you...but it's difficult to eating cheese and not drink wine ...you remember this...good cheese..good bread...good wine .😊 .😊 you can test just cheese and bread but....🙉🙉🙈🙈 nooo ..not with soda or Pepsi....please 🙏🙏🙏😃😃😃 noooo 🙈🙈🙈🙈
@@AlainDenis-pd1vl You missed the point. Some people don't drink alcohol. Maybe for health reasons, maybe for religious reasons, or maybe they have struggled with addictions. It's no one's business why. But it's polite to recognize that not everyone drinks and possibly provide options for those who don't.
They could have had Sancerre, which is from the same place as the Crottin de ,Chavignol, in the Center of France. I live in the Loire Valley end enjoy Cheverny, which is less pricy (juste bought a bottle for 6,5 euro), but there are many other possibilities.
A great great cheese monger in Beaune, the wine capital of France, is Alain Hess. His choices are superb, and he makes his own cow’s milk cheese, Delice de Pommard, a cream cheese rolled in mustard seed!
I'd try everything except the blue cheese. I've tried it once, may or may not have been a good one, I couldn't tell you, but I just can't! I had shivers for hours! But all the rest looked and sounded incredible!
Thank you for the cheese adventure. I just made my first camembert 3 days ago. Can't wait to see if it is worthy. If not, I must come to France and taste the real thing. With wine of course.
Marion is v knowledgeable and also very personable and charming.Really like her.Cheese all looked delish but too much for me to digest in one sitting.V rich❤
Oow..they all look delicious...and I live and devour cheese here in Wisconsin. With fertile land, pampered cows and cheese manufacturers from a long line of European masters,we proudly produce aged cheddar, colby,limburger, Muenster, havarti and more...but damn...the delicacy of French cheeses salivates my taste buds just 👀 this! 👍💯❤ 🖐 Vincent!
I am literally cracking up watching this. Y'all are on cheese #4, yet the number of wine glasses is staggering! Fantastic. I sent it to my entire group, hoping they'll want to book it. My only concern is we are traveling (my s=twin sister, cousin and I) with our moms who are in their 80s.
Was already to book this, but unfortunately cannot as a solo traveler, it requires 2 to book. Hoping I can figure out what that first creamy melting goat cheese was and find it when I'm there in November. All the best to those who can take the tour, I'm politely envious 😉
For the Ossau Iraty, you would not eat the croute (or rind as you say) especially if it has been aged. Ossau Iraty can be aged anywhere between 2 months to 2 years and the croute can get nasty. I don’t know which one you had, but it’s very different if aged a lot. Also, the black cherry jam is popular but by no means mandatory and for wine Ossau needs something like a red Béarn (a cheap one is fine !).
Hi friends, it took me a minute to love your channel but I gotta say I've ended up loving it, and really kudos for this video. It came on on its own, I would not have chosen it to watch since I'm too sick to eat much of anything anymore, let alone cheese (yes I know food in my country is trash and it may get better for me elsewhere). I used to be in the business back before foodieism and so I don't much get into the current discourses around food as they have gotten so redundant and beyond the niche world it used to be, but I LOVE this video and you all's precision in your explanations of each flavor etc. It really is like being there and with people who aren't just ravenous for no reason/general malnutrition (the case in my country generally), but really understanding what you are eating even though we viewers are not eating it. I could not get better culinary TV to watch even in 1990 when it was still good and done by experts. This is really beautiful work. I hope we will get to meet sometime! Thanks for sharing your gifts with us.
Thank you for nice video, for the cheese number 3 is it called Conte or Comte? I found it in Australia 12-18 months old however it is called Comte with "M".
I lived in France for 7 months and at first I hated camembert cheese. But I grew to love it, so much so that I'm back home in the Caribbean craving it. Unfortunately, it's not sold on my island... or at least the real French camembert isn't.
The Brillat-Savarin must not have had much affinage. I am used to it being very creamy. And what brie was it? Melun, Meaux? Nangis? Provins? You guys should do a video on Brie and affinage.

'Blessed are the cheesemakers.' Loved the vlog.
I loved this video…. It’s so good to see Antoine so liberated by 3 bottles !😅
🤣🤣🤣
Liberated is good. One way to to call it -
Hi from Canada 🇨🇦. You are absolutely right about cheese number 7 Brillat-Savarin. That is my number 1 go-to cheese at the cheese shop.
absolutely delicious!!
Of all your episodes, this was probably my favourite, Paris, Cheese, French wine, all my favourite worlds colliding . I MUST get to Paris soon . But, until then I live vicariously through your channel
As a lactose intolerant person, I approve this video. Cheese is too good to worry about your digestive discomfort 😊
😊🙃😊
😂😂😂
That’s what Lactaid is for! ❤
I just watch other people enjoy nowadays but l won’t say no to a little butter fake butter still sucks ❤
Did you know that cheese kept for over one year has practically no lactose ?
In France we have...1200 cheeses..🥰🥰🥰 when i am not in France...i missing cheese....bread..wine ..😊😊😊😊
French here. Just watching makes me hungry. As we say in french "I'm salivating with pleasure".
Moi aussi, mais sans confiture !!
France is definitely a pro in producing cheese ❤🧀
No doubt 😋
Not pro....THE ULTIMATE KING! THE GOD OF CHEESES!
Soft cheese yes, Switzerland has better hard cheese though
@@sunwm2003 clearly not, France has hundreds of hard cheese
And idem for wine, for cold cut (charcuterie), for pastry, for bread, for candy, for parfum etc. ⚜️⚜️⚜️France

Bleu and orange marmalade will blow your mind.
4 or 5 French cheeses + a fine French red wine + a genuine French artisan baguette = heaven..😄

Why would anyone stop doing a job like that? I can't imagine a more perfect occupation.

I never knew there was soo many different cheeses. That was fun and educational. Thank you!
Our pleasure!
You all had so much fun! Cheese came slowly to me, but I'm forever thankful for the variety of flavours and textures.
My kind of party!
😋
This has to be the best way to wake up for work watching your video and it’s about cheese 🧀 yummy
Good morning! 😋
@@LesFrenchiesTravel this is definitely a great morning 😃

Thank you so much!!
I LOVE cheese!!! I’m so jealous, and very hungry now. Completely mouth watering!

Omg the cheese... That gooey days old goat cheese... I would never have thought to hire any sort of tour guide, but your videos have changed my mind.

Pattieries and cheeses
Wonderful video. Very informative!
Love all your very informative, lovely, friendly, and fanny videos!Happy to be part of this group 😊
Haven't seen any of the fanny videos yet. Should be interesting. 🤭
I liked the puppy in the bag.
Such a great video thank you , Antoine after a few glasses! Very entertaining!
As always a great time. Made me wish I was back in Europe even more. EVERY time you do a food segment I get this way.
Putting this cheese shop on my list 😋
Amazing, as always!
What was the name of the first creamy cheese, the one that was three days old?
Merci Colleen et Antoine. Je vous aime!

It was a blast!!
I love this! Going to Paris again in May with some friends. I will definitely hire one of these, thank you!
Please do!
Excellent video. So many wonderful choices.
I go nuts over Reblochon and L'Epoisses!
Sitting here with watering mouth!!!!!
The chef Brillat-Savarin said that Époisses was the king of the cheeses.
That was great !
Excellent video. Heading to Paris on Halloween. Can’t wait to try some of these new (to me) cheeses!
