One of Paris’ best kept secrets–the revered French Le Pudlo guide to restaurants, gourmet shops, cafes and bars–available in English for the first time in its 14-year history
Â
Created by France's most respected food writer and critic, Gilles Pudlowski, Le Pudlo is relied upon by discerning Parisiennes as the most informed, sophisticated and up-to-date guide published today.
Organized by arrondissement, the guide lists and describes almost 1,000 restaurants, starting with the Grands Tables–the paragons of the capital’s culinary scene–followed by literate and illuminating descriptions of hundreds of the most attractive and appealing restaurants in each neighborhood of Paris. Mr. Pudlowski uses a simple one to three plate award, and a cracked plate for those establishments that have failed to maintain previous standards. Restaurants that give unusually good value for the price are also noted.
Â
Le Pudlo also includes brief listings for hundreds of rendez-vous–almost 300 bars, pubs, wine bars, tea salons, and cafés. And–a priceless bonus for the culinary traveler–each arrondissement includes a listing of specialty gourmet shops, by type, selling: Bread and Baked Goods, Pastries, Wine, Tea, Coffee, Candy and Sweets, Chocolate, Cheese, Charcuterie, Ice Cream, Prepared Foods, Fine Groceries, Regional Products, Fresh Fruit and Vegetables, Cutlery, and Tabletop Items–almost 300 in all.
Â
Each review in Le Pudlo is updated and rewritten annually by Mr. Pudlowski and a very small team of trusted professionals. The Little Bookroom will continue to be Le Pudlo’s English publisher worldwide for upcoming editions.Editorial Descriptions are usually submitted by the manufacturers, publishers and authors.
