I know this may seem like cruel and unusual punishment, but please try to see it as vicarious deliciousness. I just got back to London from a weekend in Paris (and I will never get over my American astonishment that that is possible), and as is par for the course, here is what I got to eat. I wish I could share a bite with each of you, but pictures will have to suffice. More details from the trip to come!
