January 11.2010

Found them those little tiny tasty fried fish at La Cagouille. So far this is the best meal in Paris simply prepared, unpretentious, cooked perfect. A whole grilled bone in St. Pierre with a bit of butter sauce and a side of parsnip puree. Ahhh this is what I was looking for. Perfect pear tarte.

Met the chef and we drank 40 yr cognac. Definetly recommend this restaurant for its simply prepared pristine fish and oysters with not much else. Great value for the money.

Also ate at Pierre Gagnaire's Gaya restaurant on Rue de Bac. It was good with intelligent touches and alot going on . Some beautiful dishes here too. But LaCagouille was more enjoyable . more on that later

  3. Looks like fun. With a twist of whiplash. A lot to absorb. But must be tasty
