My friend and superb restaurant critic Alec Lobrano has updated his bestselling book Hungry for Paris. Hungry for Paris was first published in 2008 to rave reviews and has become an indispensable source for avid foodies combing the city for the best restaurants.In the 2010 edition Alec has removed some restaurants that are no longer worthy of his 102 favorites and has added some welcome new finds. Mon Viel Ami has failed to make the grade again and even though Alec still likes the food, according to many readers complaints the service is poor and reservation system problematic. Also axed were Bath's, which has closed, and D'Chez Eux, where the ownership changed hands and had a big effect on the food and atmosphere. Jadis and Frenchie are new entries and they feature modern bistro cuisine with rising new chefs. A la Biche au Bois serving classic French food at budget prices was also added. The new edition pretty much sticks to the old one, which offers a carefully hand picked list of 102 of most delicious restaurants, bistros, and brasseries in Paris from haute cuisine to down home cooking.
