Gilles
Pudlowski
France's
most respected restaurant critic and journalist for the French weekly magazine
Le Point, Gilles Pudlowski is
a contributor to Saveurs and Bon Voyage magazines; cultural
commentator and critic; a historian of French regional culinary traditions;
and the author of two cookbooks, France the Beautiful Cookbook and
Great Women Chefs of Europe.
Published
in the US by The Little
Bookroom, his Pudlo
Paris guide to restaurants, cafes, bars, and gourmet shops is now
available in English for the first time in its 17-year history. The Pudlo
is considered by discerning Parisians as the most informed, sophisticated,
and up-to-date restaurant guide published today.
Organized
by arrondissement, the guide describes almost 1,000 restaurants in every
neighborhood of Paris, ranging from Grandes Tables–the paragons of the
French culinary scene–to restaurants that give unusually good value for
the price. The Pudlo also lists almost 300 bars, pubs, wine bars, tea salons,
and cafes. And–a priceless bonus for the culinary traveler–descriptions
of almost 300 specialty gourmet shops.
Gilles
Pudlowski has singled out 21 of his personal favorites; 185 restaurants
in settings of historical significance; 93 establishments he judges as
giving especially good value for price; and 144 places where a meal costs
less than 30 euros. You’ll also find a Listing of Establishments by Rating
and an alphabetical index singling out establishments with terrace or garden,
those open on Sunday, and those open past 11 PM.
Each
review in the Pudlo is updated and rewritten annually by Mr. Pudlowski.
The Little Bookroom will continue to be the English-language publisher
worldwide for upcoming editions of Pudlo Paris as well as Pudlo France.
In
Pudlo Paris 2007-2008 you’ll find: reviews of 32 Grand Restaurants–the
paragons of the city’s culinary scene; reviews of 965 Good Restaurants
& Others–worthwhile venues in every neighborhood; and reviews of 41
