About this ebook
The diary of an English woman and her partner Tom, a New Yorker who wanted to sample the best dining in France, retrace a frantic and surprising gourmet journey from Paris to Monaco.
He thought France was small, the best hotels & restaurants from would be waiting for them; she thought she could eat, relax as the trip would be a breeze; they were both wrong!
They hired a car, drove through the special Loire Valley visiting the magnificent Chateaux Amboise, Chambord, Chenonceaux, Montrichard, down through romantic Provence and onto the glamourous Cote d'Azur staying at Relais Chateaux along the way.
Gourmet dining at some of the worlds most famous places, Maison Troisgros, Chateau de Codigant, Colombe d'Or and the wonderful Bernard Loiseau made it the trip of a lifetime but reality soon took over.
It opened up a whole new world of sensations, discoveries, joys, hardships, illness, intensity, beauty, talents, and artistry, all unique to France, and so they became 'Gourmands on the Run!'
Illustrated with delicate watercolours done by Dame DJ along the journey, which survived against the odds.
Arriving hot, tired, hungry, with, and without, reservations, ordering from oversized menus, paying some heavy prices, they were welcomed and looked after like long lost family, one night at a time.
They drove, they ran, they ate, they packed, then unpacked yet again..and on every page, we are right there with them, along for this amazing ride.
