Jay’s Paris Plates: Discovering His Favorite Bites in the City
“Paris has over 33,000 restaurants within the city limits including 132 with a Michelin star, more than any place on Earth other than Tokyo. Yet it is a city where everyone has a favorite spot. I have mine, but I’m always on the lookout to find new gems. Between my responsibilities at Nicolas-Jay in Oregon, I spend close to four months in Paris every year, returning to old favorites and discovering new gems. Our pied-à-terre in the 9th Arrondissement provides the entrée to my eternal search for the best food in Paris.” – Jay Boberg
