About the Book

A Paris Guide Book for the Traveler's Palette

From macarons to madeleines, and soufflé to pain suisse, Local Eats Paris is ideal for finding the right post-museum coffee or snack between metro stops. By pairing whimsical illustrations with charming descriptions, this Paris travel guide introduces first-time visitors and veteran travelers alike to the typical foods of Parisian restaurants and markets.

A pocket dictionary for foodies. With the dizzying range of culinary delights that Paris has to offer, enjoying a typical French meal doesn't come easy to the foreign traveler. What's the difference between camembert and brie? What are rilletes? And what does pot-au-feu mean? Complete with mouth-watering descriptions and brightly elegant illustrations, Local Eats Paris is a traveler's guide to decoding the culinary finds of the City of Lights.

For fans of Julia Child books and travel guides. Just bigger than a passport, Local Eats Paris fits alongside chic travel accessories and won't weigh down a carry-on. Divided by type of eatery, it walks readers through patisseries, bistros, fromageries, and common street foods, introducing the unique and unusual treats found in Paris. A delight from start to finish, this Paris guide is perfect for travel gifts or gifts for chefs. Including all sorts of traditional French staple foods and cooking basics, this French cooking book also features:

  • Handy phrases for ordering like a local
  • Perfect picnic food pairings
  • A what's what of market food

If you enjoy travel books, foodie books, or French cooking gifts--like Edible French, Let's Eat France!, Culinaria France, and A Bite-Sized History of France--then you'll love Local Eats Paris.


About the Author: After writing Local Eats London: Bangers & Mash, Pasties, Jaffa Cake and other London Favorites, Natasha McGuinness hopped on a train and travelled through the Chunnel to turn her attention to Paris. After submersing herself in the gastronomy found in patisseries, boulangeries, bistros, marchés, fromageries and everything in between, she put together the perfect foodie dictionary to the cuisine found in the City of Lights. Now back in the United States, she lives in Los Angeles where she is working on her masters degree at the University of Southern California while plotting her next trip overseas.

Anne Bentley is an artist and illustrator based in Northern California. She creates wall art, hand-made cards, logo design, store signage and illustrations for boxed notecard sets, all while juggling paintbrushes, kids and dogs. The two dishes she always seeks out first when visiting Paris are duck confit and the perfect falafel found in her favorite neighborhood, Le Marais.
