      You can do much better then Russ and Daughters for a bagel. They don't even bake their own bagels. They are brought in from other bakeries. Now if you are about smoked fishes and lox it's worth going. Also across the street is Joey Batz, the only pasteis da nada that I've had in NYC that even comes close to having one in Lisbon

    Note that Hanoï Cà Phê is a chain restaurant. There are several in Paris especially in shopping malls.
    You go there more for the experience and drinking out with coworkers after workday (the area where this one is located is mainly office buildings).
    Hanoï Cà Phê is not where I would go to eat good vietnamese food.
    I would be more in outer areas of Central Paris (13th arrondissements for southeastern asian restaurants, even if you can find good ones in many other areas).
    That's the issue with Paris, most of the areas with the best restaurants are not where the tourists go.

      @jamesjeffries8281 Рік тому +3

      @stayclassyvlog you will find it is true, all of the best French restuarants are in the UK.
      I believe that it is due to the fact that there are, or at least were, rules in France to how many hours you can work each week, and as you know, it takes time to prep and cook good food, and therefore chefs were never allowed the time to be creative and so moved to London and the home counties.
      Even Nuno Mendes, the great Portuguese chef, has or has had many restaurants in London, although he now also has one in Porto, which you must try next time you're up here.
      When in London you must try and get a booking into St. John run by Fergus Henderson, the man has inspired so many international chefs throughout the years despite his own personal difficulties!
      Keep up the works and take care the two of you!

    Paris. Loved the center with the lovely architecture. Used the bus to get around. Didn't visit the museums, just sightseeing. The suburbs we saw from the train were ugly. There are indeed tons of tourits in some spots, but it's expected.
    Got scared of the prices to eat.
    Ended up discovering an out of the way buffet place for office workers. We would take the bus from the other side of the city to go eat there.
    I want to visit Paris again to look at the streets and buildings.

    We went to Paris for the first time a few weeks ago and were blown away by the lovely Parisians! I miss them. The food that we enjoyed the most was from the boulangeries, the falafel wraps, and the galettes we got from the farmer's market after seeing Parisians line up for them at lunch time. We also travelled similarly in that we did not have any museums booked in advance and we stumbled upon so many amazing places... but we may have walked a little too much lol.

    Paris is several cities in one. The one we all want to visit is for the rich and those without financial worries. But there are other Parises that are less romantic. Paris of immigrants from former French colonies. The Paris of poor workers and servants of the rich, barely getting by from month to month. Paris of black taxi drivers, city bus drivers, garbage collectors.

    Back from Paris 4 months ago. Tourists are not the problem. The streets are filled with African and Middle Eastern immigrants who will not assimilate. They seem to have no where to go and stand on the side walk all day. Get out of Paris and see the small towns which represent true French culture. Paris was shut down from protesters most days I was there.
