Product Info Reviews

Description:

Candid, honest, blunt--these writers live in Paris, which is to say they have firm opinions about everything to do with the city, and they make no bones about sharing these opinions with you, the reader. It's a pleasure to get the lowdown without that nice-nice promotional flavor. If the walls are thin and the toilets drip, you'll know so in advance. Likewise you can discover with a modicum of browsing where to go for a fabulous hot chocolate, a cheap vegetarian meal, and duck in fig sauce. There are special instructions for dining for decor, dining for food, and dining in various arrondissements, and the same attention to truth prevails for diversions and nightlife, introducing everything from showgirls in feathers to boys in tights. The guide defrocks the overrated, lauds the hidden gem, and includes comprehensive indices. --Stephanie Gold
