1.1 On Eating in Paris With Nev

Coffee Pot Conversations hosted by An Englishman in Paris

In this initial episode, I talk with Nev (my scholastic peer and girlfriend) about food in boulangeries, cafés, bistros and restaurants in Paris. We cover a wide topic as we scramble for some direction in a totally unprepared chat after our dinner in an East London pub.
