Appreciating French food and wines
France is a country that has a special day for music Fete de la Musique, one for work, Fete du Travail and of course for a nation that has officially become the number one as a “world intangible heritage” by Unesco, there is a place for a Fete de la Gastronomie. It seems more that fair to have its own festival, to gather the finest food ever, French! This year the festival will be held from the September 16th until 22nd, when everyone will have a honor to celebrate delicious cuisine…it will be all about appreciating French food and wines, wine tastings, food events and classes in Paris and the rest of France. Many of PAris’s restaurants will give great deals, such as 2 meals for one and great food tours through all the best restaurants,tous au restaurant, in Paris.This event will bring together the best food professionals and all the curious foodies, the general public, it’s a national celebration to celebrate what French are best at…you will experience everything, from cooking demonstrations and the best recipe competitions to a very special tasting menus in Paris’s best restaurants for an amazing price. This will be the third year that the event is on, over 6000 events are planned to take a part as the previous years, in the inaugural Fete de la Gastronomie with similar expectations for this year as well.
All the actions happens on the streets of Paris, all the restaurateurs willing to show off their work to the public will head to the streets loaded with their dishes, recipes and menus or simply just their personal cutlery, some visitors just get there with a fork ready to taste some, sounds good, doesn’t it?
