L’Astrance
I’m writing this now while the experience is fresh in my mind, despite my lack of wi-fi–perhaps more as a cathartic treatment to allow myself to move pass the experience.
Gordon Ramsay at the Trianon Versailles
Having a couple days to explore before we needed to be in Bordeaux for the race, we decided to visit Versailles. Yes, this is an easy day trip from Paris, but wanting to relax before the marathon, we decided to stay in Versailles, which also gave us a chance to explore more of the grounds without worrying about trains. We chose the Trianon Palace Versailles to rest our heads, which happens to have a two Michelin Starred restaurant–Gordon Ramsay–we couldn’t pass up.
Gelinaz Shuffle
It’s shocking to me that the Gelinaz Shuffle isn’t sold out yet!!! I set alarms to remind me to buy tickets to the only local restaurant participating and was ready when the tickets went on sale a bit early. I nabbed a two top for the Willow’s Inn dinner with surprise chef! We wanted a table for four, but my preparedness wasn’t fast enough! But there are only a handful of the events sold out, so there is still time for you to experience this amazing culinary mix-up.

Chef’s Table: Massimo Botturro reminds me of a dinner…
Watching “Chef’s Table” on Netflix brought me back a few years to my dinner at Osteria Francescana. It starts by going in depth in how he cooks from his memories (that is a paraphrase of course).
Man V Food Seattle
I ran across a blog post on My Tan Feet about Beth’s 12-egg omelette and it brought back a few hilarious memories. In 2010, Artboy’s cousin visited the PNW from Miami, and set out to recreate Man V Food segments, including the infamous 12-egg omelette.
