  • Get to Know the Food and the Neighborhood – Highly Recommend!

“We toured with Chef Tris – it was a fantastic day filled with great information. We learned more about the history of French bread with him than we did the next day in a bread-baking class! We enjoyed croissants at a charming cafe, learned about food labeling at a specialty shop, and strolled up picturesque cobblestone streets. Don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes! Our tour ended with a delightful lunch in a cozy restaurant where we shared stories and laughter with our group. The food was incredible – cheese, wine, escargot, beef bourguignon, and delicious bread. We learned about the history of the area and the food we were enjoying. We finished our day with a delightful macaron and champagne.”

  • The Most Incredible Afternoon in Paris!

“We had the most incredible afternoon with the most delicious escargot and beef bourguignon. Our guide, Chef Tris, was beyond amazing. This is a must-do when visiting Paris. I highly recommend doing it at the beginning of your trip. “

  • An Unforgettable Food Adventure

“Tris (AKA The Broke Brit in Paris) was outstanding! We learned so much about how food, politics, and Parisian culture are intertwined. We were lucky that everyone on the tour was awesome, all from different places and backgrounds, united by a passion for food (and wine). As the food tasting (and wine) flowed, so did the enjoyment. Stories were shared, laughter filled the air, and even a local singer serenaded us. It was an interesting and intimate way to experience Parisian food culture.”
