Can you keep a secret?
Something I haven’t yet told you all is that I work in a buffet restaurant in Disneyland Paris. I am therefore surrounded daily by mouth watering dishes and also I am privileged to witness their creation.
A cowboy themed restaurant, throughout the rest of the year the food is typically Tex-Mex, but as I translated the Christmas menu into English a couple of days ago, I found myself drooling over the paper.
Langoustines, foie gras, leg of ham, faux filet, roasted potatoes, smoked salmon, marinated vegetables, crème caramel, gateaux opéra……….and of course, the perks of the job, we get to taste every single dish!
French attention to culinary detail meets American style portions promises to be a feast to remember.

Bonjour Charlotte,
What a fun combination, Disneyland AND Paris...not to mention all those wonderful dishes. Will you be going home to England for Christmas or is that the time you must work your hardest? Either way, I wish you magical holidays. I will be back to visit often, my culinary skills could always use a few new great recipes. :)
