Fogon

We went to lunch at Fogon recently, widely considered the best Spanish restaurant in Paris. Located in front of the Seine River, just a few steps from Saint Michel, the restaurant, contemporarily furnished, has a warm atmosphere. Upon sitting down you, will find your knife and folk in the drawer of your wooden table. We looked through the menu with a glass of cold Sangria. Even though the paella, which is served directly to you in a big pan, is one of their specialties, we chose the Tapas course menu (40). Served in different small dishes, this menu allows you to discover elegant Spanish foods. There are so many plates that our table got so crowded! Marinated mackerel, tuna dip, the famous Iberian raw ham, poached egg with Spanish sausage, fried and marinated codfish, stuffed red pepper, grilled lamband at the

end, 3 kinds of small desserts are accompanied by Andalusian liqueur. Everything was so delicious. All the dishes are suggested by the chef, so if you have any allergies, tell the waiter first. The paella menu (35) includes some Tapas as appetizer, one of the paellas (with squid ink, Iberian raw ham or langoustineetc.) and dessert. Well try the paella next time! (2007-09-10)
