Love those railroad dining car menus. I'm curious now as to why restaurant breakfast offerings have changed so little in North America since the 50s and 60s when restaurant cuisine in general is so different. (I mean, apart from the prunes.) It's still all french toast, pancakes and eggs. I wonder if anyone has breakfast theories? And thanks for the Netflix recommendation - definitely going to check that out! (Oh, and the reminder about your basil vinaigrette - such a good recipe!)
Having just made batches five and six of your Basil Vinaigrette, today I enjoyed a lovely mix of multicolored cherry tomatoes, Kirby cucumbers, avocado, a bit of shallot and fresh mozzarella drizzled with it. There’s nothing better for lunch and the vinaigrette has made a nice gift for friends, as well. I won’t fuss about what’s in ice cream - the heat index here has been 103+ and the humidity is through the roof. Pretty sure ice cream becomes calorie free under these circumstances.
Your newsletter is the best! I love reading it, plus all the links are fabulous. It’s like a mini magazine. I live up in Park City but have never been to Les Madeleines. Crazy, I know. Will be going there after their les grandes vacances.
Where is the basil vinaigrette recipe??

FYI, you got a nice shout-out in the Washington Post restaurant chat today -- someone looking for advice on Paris dining.
