Once we discovered that Gail Simmons (reigning queen of the High Chef franchise) could be returning to Paris for the first time in a decade, we requested our Twitter followers to share some favourite spots for meals & wine. Your most frequent ideas? Le Comptoir du Relais, Chez l’Ami Jean, & Gérard Mulot.
On the finish of her keep, I caught up with Gail for dinners (she put away two full meals that night time) and to ask which mouthfuls had made an impression.
Gail Simmons’ High Paris Tastes
- The boudin noir (blood sausage) and roast coquelet with potatoes and root greens at Le Comptoir du Relais
- The cod with smoked eggplant and pleurotes (king oyster mushrooms) at Frenchie
