Katie Okumura (Tom’s Personal Assistant) blogs from Paris!
I’m just about to get ready to make dinner for my Frenchy friends, but before I do, I thought I would send two pictures from the weekend. The first (photo left) is the most delicious duck confit with thinly sliced potatoes fried in the duck fat and a green salad. It’s amazing the things you can get in a can over here at a relatively cheap cost. (Yes, the confit came in a delicious, delicious can! Amazing!) The other photo (right) is of these magnificent pastries from a small place called Arnaud Delmontel. The pastry farthest away is soft caramel with meringue in the center, the one after that is a dense dark chocolate cake with candied orange, the next is a mousse with what the French call “red fruites,” and the one closest to the camera is a mille feuille with chocolate on top and chestnut filling. YUM!!!!!
