Unforgettable Paris


AH, Paris. This is a meal of five women who long for the city of lights. A place which has captivated them individually and collectively for the greater part of each of their lives. This meal celebrates food that brings memories; a first meal along the Seine, the cheese tart enjoyed in an out of the way bistro, a quintessential dessert and so on. We'll dine with vigor, share memories from the past and plot future adventures in this dear city.
