Guilty Pleasures: Alain Ducasse's Le Jules Verne in Paris!

This post kicks off the first in "Guilty Pleasures," a series of mouth-watering food photos meant to titillate your tastebuds - yet contain zero calories! Like many of you, I adore beautiful food and greatly respect and appreciate the work that goes into creating it. That said, I couldn't think of a better photo to kick off this series than this exquisite lobster dish I enjoyed at Le Jules Verne in Paris a few years ago. It was breathtaking - I almost couldn't bring myself to eat it. Then, I remembered the cost of said meal and quickly devoured it. It went down very easily with a nice Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc!

Le Jules Verne is located in the second tier of the Eiffel Tower and is the perfect showcase for the cuisine of world renowned chef, Alain Ducasse. The view of Paris is truly spectacular - just be sure to hold on tight during the precarious elevator ride up!

Bon Appétit,
