Wonderful cooking class which begins with a visit to the local market to choose fresh ingredients, and ends almost four hours later after having enjoyed a delicious traditional French meal, which you actually cook, with the help of the chef, of course. Philippe, the chef, was absolutely charming, very patient and incredibly skilful. He was fluent in English and taught us a few key French words and phrases related to food, as well as several traditional recipes with his own personal twist. It was a truly delightful experience.

One of the best yet reasonably priced Italian restaurants in Paris. Great pizzas and even better pasta with traditional Sicilian sauces, always a feast for the eyes and palate. The service is absolutely wonderful and the atmosphere warm and unpretentious.

Wonderful quirky tea room in Le Marais, famous for its sinful cakes and original, flea-market style furniture. Definitely worth a visit if you're around this trendy neighbourhood in Paris.
