Bistrot Margot: "Spirited Old Town spot has the bistro look down pat, from the leather-upholstered banquettes to dark wood and Art Nouveau detailing... food also captures authentic bistro flavors."

Daniel Young divides most of his time and meals between his hometown, New York, where he was restaurant critic of the Daily News, and Paris, where he wrote The Paris Cafe Cookbook. He has written about French food and culture for Gourmet, Bon Appetit, Condé Nast Traveler, and the Los Angeles Times.

Nicolas Wines Selected & Discussed by Mary Ross

Maison Nicolas, producers of Ferrande and Consensus, opened their doors as wine merchants in Paris in 1822. They offered customers a revolutionary convenience -- wine packaged in glass, corked bottles, as opposed to wine sold in bulk that was the day's standard. Recently, Nicolas added to their holdings of 350 European stores with the purchase of Odd Bins, the popular British chain. Nicolas also represents the quality and value of French vineyards with 40 wines, marked with the Nicolas Quality seal, for export throughout the world.
