Renowned for its rich and varied gastronomy, France actually has notone but several gastronomies, as numerous as the regions that make up the country. The finest products of the French terroir are put to good use in recipes that are sometimes centuries old.
Bouillons in Paris, bouchons in Lyon, estaminets in the North, restaurants run by former bougnats - the Auvergnats who came to the capital in the 19th century... In Paris, regional restaurants are plentiful; they cheer up expatriates by reminding them of the flavours of their childhood, and offer great discoveries to the most curious gourmets.
It's hardly surprising, then, that in Paris, on Monday you can enjoy a typical Provençal bouillabaisse, on Tuesday a boeuf bourguignon and Burgundy snails, on Wednesday a real Alsatian sauerkraut, on Thursday a string of Basque tapas, on Friday cod accras, on Saturday a well-stuffed Breton galette, and on Sunday, Lyonnaise-style pike quenelles.
