You won't find me eating oysters there (or anywhere!) but I've always loved the Guastavini tile ceilings. Not only gorgeous, but a lot like stepping back into another time in the station (Jack Finney fans will know what I mean...)

There's more than oysters at this restaurant, one of my favorites in New York as well. Excellent seafood selection as well.

  In the past decade or so, Charleston has emerged as a food/foodie travel destination.  On an extended weekend visit to Charleston, we enjoyed superb food every single meal.  Most everything is fried and a little "heavier" than we're...

A Day of Decadence in Paris

Charlotte Isabel ·
I don't like food. I don't even love food. A huge part of my motivation to travel abroad is finding amazing places to eat and tasting delectable new dishes. Cuisine is both an authentic and intimate way of experiencing local culture, so seeing what's on offer food wise is always number one on my to-do list.

French cuisine showcased around the world

Paul Heymont ·
In a bid to remind the world that French cuisine is (in their eyes, at least) the greatest in the world, French chefs cooked up a storm yesterday, with 1700 chefs in 150 cities preparing feasts in bars, restaurants, embassies and even a prison.

On my first visit to France I visited a small supermarket. I bought a selection of economically priced wines. They all tasted the same - cheap. I was advised by other tourists to look for the laundry basket instore. It contained re-cycled bottles with no label. Just the description on a card attached to the basket. And even cheaper than the junk I'd already bought. It's what you see the locals choosing. 1 red and 1 white basket full of scratched bottles with a new cork . Beautiful wine and...

Garry, your wine story reminded me of a family experience with French 'vin de table.' My father was stationed in Heidelberg in the late 1950s, and the British, French and U.S. forces gave each other reciprocal privileges in their stores. The main reason for our occasional trip to Baden-Baden, which was the French headquarters, was to refill jugs with inexpensive and quite pleasant French wine. It was, indeed, as cheap as milk! (Although I never thought of using it on cornflakes...). I note...
