Happy Friday. I want you to go to the most controversial restaurant in all of Paris. But first, a bit of business. As you know, Your Survival Guy isn’t big on selling positions. My default position is to hold forever. With that said, it doesn’t mean I operate with my head in the sand, far […]

Or it’s the place setting that’s perfectly adjusted to make room for a late arrival to your party, whose alarm apparently never went off, making it “no inconvenience at all monsieur/madame.” A […]
The Most Controversial Restaurant in Paris?
One either loves or hates CHEZ L’AMI LOUIS Many visitors find the prices high and the staff a little off-putting. Debbie and I continue, after numerous visits through numerous years, to be enthusiastic supporters. The best roast chicken, green salad, escargot, and foie gras merit the price received. And the wine carte, a little cumbersome […]
