Paris…….no trip to this amazing city is complete without dining at Le Meurice. Chef Yannick Alléno, I thank you for your incredible brilliance. Estelle, your palate for wine is to be admired and I thank you for some memorable pairings. Patrice, I’m almost speechless but, I must say your flawless presence shows in the sublime execution of the dining room. I shall make sure my return in 2012 includes a stay at the hotel. How can one go wrong with this level of luxury and elegance. See you soon!!!!
