Thank you for the interesting interview with Alec.
It was a timely read as, my husband is in Enfield,Ct for his 94 year old mother’s birthday week. They will be going to the shore to visit Abbott’s for a lobster roll!
Just a fantastic interview. Alec Lobrano's Hungry for Paris was the next book I read after your The Sweet Life in Paris upon our arrival in Paris as a six-month lark (2009/10). And I still have Gourmet's Paris issue. My Place at the Table will be next.
Fascinating article David, I know I shouldn't be surprised there were over hyped Paris restaurants that only Americans went to (L'ami Louis) - so glad for the newer wave of Paris restaurants that are so fantastic, like Verjus, a favorite. I also love Bouillion Pigalle. I'm excited to check out Alec's memoir!
Great interview! I loved Gourmet's Paris issues! I had every issue of Gourmet from 1992 until their demise. I remember the cover with the woman in red, but hadn't noticed she was smoking. Unfortunately, I had to part with my Gourmet collection when we moved. I'm now following Alec on Facebook. Thank you.
This interview was a great way to start my Saturday! I think I remember reading Alec's columns in the Time Out sections of Pariscope when I lived in Paris in the mid 1990s. It's amazing to watch his career path and I cannot wait to read this book! I signed up for the event on June 3 - looking forward !

A delicious interview! Thank you for a wonderful start to the day.
What a wonderful interview. I'll have to dig out my old Gourmet magazines to reread.

This is a terrific interview. Though it did make me long for Ruth Reichl’s version of Gourmet! Thank you for starting my Saturday off this way!
