Err that's a Claude Chabrol movie, the master of bourgeois-skewering criminal dramas. Go back to watching the Transporter you taste-deprived yank!!!

Pierre Herme - Rose macaroon, fresh raspberries and lychee. it will melt your girlfriends butter.

[mellowfellow]

I agree, truffles make me thirsty.

I like Benjamin Biolay (though he is overrated)

Rose Kennedy is my favorite album from him. I liked some of his songs that he produced for keren ann.

^ this has been doing it for me and sometimes i even play the record

New Orleans:Beignets

and there's no reason to bash new orleans/louisiana cuisine. they're not trying to be french to be cute--and is there "NOLA French" food--I thought it was just cajun or creole food...? NOLA had great food when i was down there (before Katrina/Rita).

I'm doing a research paper on the composer of the first documented form of notated music, Leonin, and his student, Perotin. They were magisters and resident composers of sacred music at Notre Dame in the 12th/13th century. Their music is beautiful.

^ I was listening to mcsolaar when i was at primary. I thought it was real gangsta stuff. But now he just pretends he's engaged in causes and everything but he just does it for money, and it now sucks.

new orleans has some french cafes/restaurants that easily rival the best in any major metropolitan center, save paris. and creole cuisine and cajun cuisine are beasts on their own.

creole tends towards a more classical european approach, whereas cajun veers towards the more rustic country french influence.

both feature deliciousness. give them a shot.

[onemancult]

creole dish to go for: pompano en papillote

pompano filet cooked in parchment paper with white wine, crab, and shrimp based sauce.

cajun dish to go for: maque choux

acadian/native american/african influenced dish of corn, green peppers, tomatoes,

and onions, with garlic and celery, braised for a long fucking time in pig fat.

Music is an other amazing part of the movie :
