thanks for everybodys good replies!

sorry for the typo in the headline

Ive never been to France, and dont know anything about Paris when it comes to vacationing there. Therefor I need some help on finding a affordable hotel somewhere practically located. I dont know if its possible but hopefully somewhere between 50 and 80 euros a night. Also I stayed at quite a few different agro-tourisms in Spain this summer, so that could be interesting as well.
Does anyone here have any tips?
-
thanks. In my case, pay wouldnt be the issue, but accomodation would greatly help. Is it unusual for the restaurant to help with this in any way?
-
I wish I was back in Barcelona...ohh, and not on an apprentice's budget..hehe
Paris next

Most of the quarter was spared any serious damage, because it's on relatively high ground -- its above sea level. But as the rest of the city is pretty much shut down, Central Grocery and all the other stores and restaurants in the Quarter are indefinitely closed.
Thanks Jason.

Nice topic! Please feel free to add more information. Ive been wondering about the same things as charlieredd, myself.

I had the good fortune as to visit New Orleans last fall. I almost got tears in my eyes reading your article. I still have lots of undeveloped film from the trip and I cant wait to get them developed now. My heart goes out to all you who lost something you loved during those dreadful days.
BTW, how did Central Grocery Co. fare?
-
very interesting.

Im in the lobby waiting for my girlfriend to get dressed............ and were going out to eat a tasting menu somewhere. We were at the Cata 1.81 (?) last night and the food was very good, but the service was not...The cooks deserved better than that. So if anyone can recomend a goo place, please do. Quickly! hehe...

Good topic! Ill be there in a couple of weeks and would love to get some recomandations. How much would a full meal with wine cost at Arzak or another 3 star place? And what can be recomended on the lower part of the cost scale? Ohh...and a cheap place to stay?

I need help!
Im holding a course for a friend who had to cancel and the topic is smoothies with and without alchohol. Im thinking Ill make a Pina Colada smoothie, mayby a bloody mary one, and a fennel/granny smith variety. I was also thinking about a jackfruit or durian smoothie. Any carzy mixes or taste-ombinations would be appreciated. Its in three hours, so Im sorta sweating...hehe

thanks PassionateChefsDie!
-
Yeah, I agree with PassionateChefsDie. Creme Fraiche sorbet, that way it's frozen and will keep a while longer. I have a recipe as well if you'd like.
yes, please post it
-
that would be great! do I need an ice-cream machine?
-
I make a nice five-onion dip with creme fraiche. Combine brunoised shallot, scallion, chive, red onion and sweet onion (like Vidalia) with creme fraiche and a little sour cream. Salt the hell out of it and let it sit for a few hours before consuming. It always gets consumed rapidly.
I like creme fraiche to finish soups and stews, but not enough of it to use 4 kilos.
that sounds nice. I of course thought of a little swirl and the like, but 4 kilos is a bit much...hehe
Im making a passionfruit cream to go with ovenbaked chicken, a morel and baked pepper sauce with entrecote but still....
-
shit...that was me, not Hanne Frosta...sorry boss

How about renting a motorhome? Anyone done this in Spain? The best price I can find on the net is about 1500£
-
Thanks Bux and Saborosa! Very nice responds. This will defiantly make my holiday a lot better!

Vel min venn, nå har du virkelig tråkket i salaten! Calella ligger midt i det området hvor du definitivt finner noen av Spanias beste restauranter, nevner i fleng: Sant Pau, Hispania, El Raco de Can Fabes, og 12 mil lenger nord El Celler de Can Roca og El Bulli...
Gjør du et søk på disse i dette forumet vil du ha mer enn nok hygge deg med...
The short version translated from Norwegian:
My fellow countryman, you've really put your foot in it, listing the above mentioned restaurants and recommending the "search" button...
But in all fairness: The original poster is a young promising chef from Bergen, Norway who will be awed at the culinary experiences that the Costa Brava has to offer.
Young promising chef from Bergen, huh? Tell my boss that... I know about El Bulli, of course, but the others were new to me. So what your saying is that Callela is a nice place to stay, then? I would like to get away from there after the festival Im going to, but then Ill aim for somewhere near, I guess...Any recommandations for nice villages nearby?
Ohh...not saying that the spanish cuisine is not interesting, of course not. But I get tired of getting served chips with everything. I guess you have to leave the tourist infested beach resorts to get to the good stuff?

wow, thanks for the info. I had the first of two courses yesterday and it went great. Made a killer Brie de Meaux-strawberry-pepper-74% chocolate-reduced port sirup dessert....Im drooooling....ohh-I stole the Idea from another thread on this board...hehe
Dropped the liqurice soup, made a Tom Yum soup instead. Also made a halibut ceviche with mango and avocado instead of the carpaccio
