Hello, Emily here, from day 29 of the 2nd confinement (lockdown) in France. I never thought you could miss the city you live in, but I miss Paris. Physically she remains present and although stores are allowed to reopen tomorrow, restaurants will remain closed, the streets are quiet and the soul of the city is sleeping. The old Latin motto of Paris is ‘Fluctuat nec mergitur’…
As of last week, France has gone back into lockdown, which prompted a 454 mile (730km) traffic jam as people tried to get in and out of the city. The lockdown is expected to last a month and while it’s not ideal, it’s not nearly as restrictive as the lockdown we had last spring and everything from taking a walk to going to the grocery…
如果您年纪大了，那么感恩的死者就会有一首歌，“那是一场漫长而奇怪的旅行。”（当时还有其他原因您可能不记得事情了，尤其是当您是听取感恩的死者的类型。）但是，这可能是许多事情的标语，有些是最近2020年，Covid危机和其他…
It amuses me when people talk about snooty people sitting around, leisurely eating pâté, because pâté is rustic, country fare, not considered fancy in France.

Coup de roulis translates to “strong blow,” referring to…
I was surprised the first time I met Jacqueline Ngo Ppii, who by sheer coincidence, I’d contacted a few weeks earlier when I learned about her company, Little Africa Paris. I wanted to sign up for one of their culinary tours of the African neighborhoods and markets of Paris. I’ve visited some of them a few times on my own, but I wanted to learn…
对于巴黎的企业来说已经有一年了。从吉列斯（Gilets Jaunes）运动到法国历史上最长的过境罢工，然后是大流行，他们不得不努力很多事情。其中一名士兵是肮脏的柠檬。在对以前拥有LED Lit寿司餐厅的空间进行了重大改造之后，我和朋友一起度过了一个夜晚 - 詹妮弗（Jennifer），…
I was astonished when I was eating a sandwich at Mokoloco, which I can pretty confidently say makes the best sandwiches in the world. Okay, perhaps that’s a bit of hyperbole, but every sandwich I’ve had there has been spectacular.
