I was super excited about this book. It seemed like it would get me more fun food places than I could possibly visit let alone eat from in my short trip. Of course I was right, but that did not turn out to be the frustrating thing. The frustrating thing was that I possesed a guide book for Paris that lacked a map. It did list the nearest Metro stop, but more than anything I wanted to see these places laid out on a map so that I could quickly find any of them that might be nearby or determine if the walk were too long to make it before it closed.
Since I got home I discovered that there are online updates and maps. If I had been a reader of her blog, I may have assumed this to be the case, but as my husband bought her book I had no idea what lie on the internet. Or, if i were younger and had grown up with the internet, I may have also have assumed this book would have a sister web site, but I'm too old, and now too far for away for that info to be useful. But, if I make it back this fall, I am so there.
All in all, this book delivered some of my favorite experiences of the trip.
