Dear Ella,
I just discovered the most perfect bookstore by accident! I was in the metro (line 3) on my way home from work. I was a bit distracted, trying to come up with a decent text-message for a boy...) and missed my stop! I realized just as the doors were closing. So I was forced to find my way home from Bourse, about a ten minute walk, following the rue montmartre. And once again, it seems that everything in life happens for a reason. Because right there, on number 92, the Librairie Gourmande popped up! Yes, closed. But it looked promising!
Two days later I discovered just how great it was. Two stories, completely packed with books on food, divided into every category you could possibly think of. Weather you are looking for the great chefs, French family kitchen, molecular cooking or kiddy cooking, it's all there! I was personally very interested in their vegetarian section, which turned out to be very satisfying.
I went home with just one book, Mon premier diner végétarien by Alice Hart (you'll be introduced to her recipe's shortly), but I could easily have left with much more! A great field-trip for everyone who is into cooking!
Go check it out!
Love,
Josee
