I believe I tried everything I wanted to try while I was in Paris, so no regrets on my part. I didn’t really do much research when it came to “real food” and just visited random restaurants. No Michelin-starred places, but I’m okay with that. As mentioned in my previous post, I visited more pâtisseries than restaurants so I actually didn’t eat that much other than pastries when I was in Paris ;)
And before you call me ridiculous for having Japanese food in Paris, I have to tell you there are many, many Japanese restaurants there. I’ve read that the French are interested in anything Japanese, thus the number of sushi restaurants and Japanese stores such as Muji, Uniqlo, Comme Des Garçons and Journal Standard Luxe. Albeit the food wasn’t great, but at least it satisfied my curiosity (grins).
