On Saturday 12 September 2026, off for a weekend in Paris.
ICE or TGV?
For the journey, I prefer the German ICE to the TGV: there’s currywurst in the dining car. So, a French or a German train restaurant?
Octopus kebab at Le Dürümier
First foodie stop at Le Dürümier, known for its octopus kebab. I had the octopus and squid mix.
Pasta on Rue Daguerre and Belon oysters
In the evening, La Maison de la Pâte on Rue Daguerre for fresh Italian pasta, then XXL Belon oysters, size 000, at L’Écailler du Bistrot.
