Couldnt agree more ! Ethelya was a friend from her Chasse and Lawrence years and I visited the couple at Sergent Recruteur and Comice with great pleasure. High end , delicate food worthy of its Michelin Star . Lovely room : a Hoffer on the wall allways contributes!

Ma blonde et moi on a passé une semaine à Paris cet automne (première fois!). J’avais réservé chez Comice, effectivement ce fut un très beau et bon repas. On a aussi bien aimé le bistrot sans prétention Les Arlots, c’était succulent. On attends vos autres recommandations à Paris car on va sûrement y retourner.

Leslie you had me within seconds of hearing about the tasting menu. Cross fingers they have room for me on Friday !

It's hard to communicate Ethilaya's passion for wine (which you did so well!), which isn't the least bit pretentious but is truly a subject that she comfortably dives deep into, knowing the producers and explaining so well to customers what makes the wines so special. Noam is also a wonderful, and thoughtful, chef. It's such a great place - I only wish I lived closer!

So true. She is such a breath of fresh air compared to the pretentious somms who make you feel bad for not forking over a mortgage payment on your wine. And that smile! I wish I lived closer too!

Damn! I won’t be able to make the Chasse et Pêche dates in Montréal. I guess I’m going to have to plan a trip to Paris then…

je me souviens très bien de cette excellente sommelière à Christian Bégin. Bravo à vous Lesley qui avez les connaissances pour juger ces plats et surtout grand Merci de partager cette visite.
