I just finished my first radio interview for the book launch (on Sat.). Peter Greenberg
hosted the show from Hôtel Fouquet's Barrière in Paris. He is a great host, very inquisitive and interested in
getting to the heart of having a memorable, unique travel experience.
Keeps you on your toes if you're a show guest. It's fun for me to talk
about my Paris highlights, almost feel like I'm there, especially since I was drinking a good strong coffee (to get all my neurons firing) which
reminds me of my daily trips to Verlet coffee house on Rue St.-Honoré.
We
talked about places to enjoy the romance of Paris -- like jazz at Duc
des Lombards or Café Laurent. I love taking a daytrip to the Champagne
region, and Peter mentioned some of his favorite venues. My top pick for lunch or dinner in Reims
is Les Crayères -- gourmet dining, beautiful accommodations, and lovely
grounds. Another must-visit locale in Paris is Notre Dame on the
island in the middle of the Seine River where you might be lucky enough
to hear some organ music, and nearby Sainte-Chapelle (photo above right) hosts intimate
chamber music concerts.
