Paris is renowned for its gastronomy and fantastic pastries and desserts like croissants, éclairs, macarons, tarte tatin, and of course, no Parisian meal would be complete without a glass of French wine. There are several classic dishes that anyone visiting the city should try. Here are the top five traditional Parisian dishes: • Coq au Vin: This classic French dish, whose name translates to "rooster in wine," is a slow-cooked chicken stewed with red wine, lardons (small strips or cubes of pork fat), mushrooms, and possibly garlic. • Bouillabaisse is a rich, flavorful seafood stew made with several different types of fish, shellfish, saffron, and various herbs and spices. It's often served with a side of rouille, a garlicky mayonnaise-like sauce. • Escargot, a popular appetizer in French cuisine, is a dish of snails meticulously prepared in a scrumptious blend of garlic and parsley butter. Once cooked, the snails are placed back into their shells and served with designated utensils, a special fork, and tongs, enhancing the overall culinary experience. • Ratatouille: This dish from the South of France is also a staple in Paris. It's a vegetable stew containing ingredients like eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, tomatoes, and onions, seasoned with Herbes de Provence. It's a delicious and healthy choice. • Crêpes: Originally from Brittany in the West of France, crêpes are thin pancakes that can be filled with various ingredients. Savory versions, made with buckwheat flour and known as galettes, might contain cheese, ham, eggs, or other fillings. Sweet crêpes, made with wheat flour, can be filled with sugar, Nutella, jam, or even flambeed with Grand Marnier for the classic Crêpe Suzette.
