brasserie plateau de fruits de mer
For the last 4 months I have been travelling through the vineyards of France and Italy working on a new book of wine routes that will be published later in 2015. All the details and timing of publication will be revealed soon……..when I have the permission of the publisher who is keeping everything secret for the moment. On these trips I have discovered brilliant wines and winemakers in regions as diverse and Puglia in the south of Italy and Alto Adige, up in the Italian Tyrol, to new producers in Alsace and makers of some of France’s greatest red wines in the Rhone valley……
Imbetween I had time to write a story for Business Traveller of my favourite brasseries in Paris, and there is no better time to visit one of these legendary institutions for either a huge seafood plateau or a steaming plate of choucroute heaped with smoked pork and sausages. I can’t share the link for the article as Business Traveller operate a PayWall protection, but here is the link for a tantilizing food, art deco and art nouveau picture Portfolio of five of the best – Au Pied de Cochon, Flo, Charlot, La Coupole and Chez Jenny…………http://www.thewinetattoo.com/portfolio/five-legendary-paris-brasseries/
but everyone has their own favourite and I did not have the space to include the likes of Brasserie Lipp and Le Balzar, Julien or the majestic Bofinger. Bon Appetit and more news soon on the wine book plus regular posts of Twitter – @thewinetattoo
