We have just arrived in Paris after the most incredible time in the tiny town of Beaune. It is the wine capital of the Burgundy region of France, which is Southeast of Paris towards the Swiss Alps. We spent two nights at a Chateau where the owner is also a vintner (wine maker.) We spent the first day touring the medieval hospital for the poor and stumbled on the absolutely best meal in our entire lives. The owner of the Chateau suggested we cancel our Michelin * lunch at Jardin de Remparts and instead have dinner at L'Petite Paradis. It was down a tiny cobble stone street right across from the hospital in the downtown area of Beaune. I will post some pics of the meal, but I can't tell you enough how amazing it was. I can honestly say I was on the verge of tears and Nessie wasn't far behind.
