french 101 at caf?campagne |
|
a regional tour of french
food and wine. |
| |
Paris-Lyon-Marseille
Each month chef daisley gordon and wine director cyril frechier
collaborate to create a prix-fixe menu and wine feature focusing
on regions in france. in the month of avril (april) we take a
journey on the p-l-m railway line.
To many sun deprived parisian the p-l-m railway line represents
an imaginary thread to warm proven?l climates, and a place
where one delights in the simple pleasures of life-the
enjoyments of the table.
The gastronomical journey begins in paris with freshly shucked
belon oysters served with a chilled glass of steely muscadet or
crisp blanc de blancs champagne. within a short hour, the flat
plains of the beauce roll past the windows soon to be followed
by the gentle rolling hills of northern burgundy.
A short stop in dijon is all the excuse needed for a glass of
chablis and goug?e to stave off the appetite. next, it?s on to
lyon where lunch awaits. the saying goes-in lyon three rivers
flow; the rh?e, the saone and beaujolais, and nowadays, one
might add c?es du rh?e to the list. dijon is a shrine to all
things comestible, charcuterie reigns and wine with food is de
rigueur.
The final stretch to marseille via the valley du rh?e ambles
through a procession of wine villages and near-by appellations:
c?e r?ie, st. joseph, hermitage, ch?eauneuf-du-pape, and
gigondas to name a few. the shimmering mediterranean is closer
and one?s cheerfulness increases with each passing mile, and for
good reason, it?s almost time for dinner!
This month, please join us for a culinary journey from la capitale, through france?s heartland, and on to marseille?s
canebi?e. - bon voyage |
