I have a new geek to report to you, a wonderful new place highly recommended by my folks back in Paris, its opening today!!! (you read here hot off the press) and I know the chef from his other place there. The PENICHE L’IMPROVISTE, its a boat folks; Place Paul Delouvrier, facing quai de l’Oise, 75019 Paris of course. By chef Jean-François GUY who also do Nuances in my beloved Versailles. He does cooking like mama used to make them home grown and fresh produce, a colored cuisine very inventive going from the Greece to Africa, to Martinique and the south of France. And ,also, great jazz display of music . You get here probably by metro even if I do the car, but the closest are Line 7 : Corentin Cariou and Line 5 : Ourcq; here is the webpage with more info, enjoy it; http://www.improviste.fr/content/cote-cuisine
