Yves back from the market

The nicest, friendliest chef around (after YMC, of course!). Yves Camdeborde has "Le Comptoir" and at the time of this photograph, was opening "Le Petit Comptoir", right beside it. A memorable evening of champagne and conversation with him and a horde of writers (including Christian Authier and Jean-Marc Parisis) topped off a fantastic stay in Paris (at the Relais St-Germain, of course!)

Ah...la Pléiade real cheap!!

I just could not go by without buying at least one book from the real "bouquinistes".  We cannot rival the quantity as well as the price of the second hand beauties (from the "Pléiade" collection of course.  Photograph taken by YMC on the Quai des Grands Augustins, right before St-Michel.
