Sort of like (on a much less grand scale) Miss Pittypat's Porch in Atlanta. Tourist trap. Locals never eat there.

Tell me, please -- if YOU were in Paris, and wanted a good dinner, where would YOU go? (I do enjoy good traditional French food, well cooked & presented. I have all of Julia Child's books - including Vol. 2 of Mastering the Art of French Cooking - and I do use them. Never did enjoy 'nouvelle' - in Miz Julia's words 'you just know somebody's fingers have been all over it'.)

I,too , am a big Julia Child fan. I use her books all the time. Vol I and II.

My own personal favorites in the top category for a special occasion and superb dinner are

l’AMBROISIE in the historic Place des Vosges

l’ARPEGE

I am putting together a list of Paris restaurants, and will post them to the Ping List soon.
