This title provides travelers with a well-considered, comprehensive guide to all manner of Paris food, from bistros to chocolate shops. Wells arrived in Paris in 1980 to live, research, and write a guide to the city's food. Her book, reissued repeatedly since 1984, is divided by category such as restaurant, bistro, market, pastry shops, and cheese shops. Within these sections, establishments are listed by "arrondissement", or district. The short and to the point but completely enticing entries are sprinkled with the author's experiences and preferences. Wells provides each establishment's contact information, hours, approximate prices, and nearest metro station. The guide also includes 40 recipes and a French/English food glossary.
