Anne Koehlinger ParisWhen it comes to fine dining from the top chefs in the world, none can compare to that of traditional French cuisine in Paris, France. Travelers near and far gather in the city of Paris to experience some of the world’s richest delicacies. To the French, food is more than just eating. It is the art of living. French diners are so passionate and fascinated with food culture because they have particularly deep cultural roots underlying a vast amount of history. The French have always maintained that cooking expresses giving, while eating expresses sharing. As tradition would have it, families come together to keep French food culture (learn more) alive by combining social habits, values, education, and of course, delicious food.

Anne Koehlinger became highly impressed  with French cuisine during a recent trip to Paris, reinforcing her interest in culinary arts. While in France, Anne Koehlinger visited the Head Chef at The Seaside Restaurant where she got to taste authentic French cuisine and share her passion for cooking. She also got to meet the Chef at Capella Pedregal and dined on fresh seafood directly from the island. Anne Koehlinger hopes to take this experience to school where she will work on pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Culinary Studies to begin training and developing cooking skills. Her trip to Paris, France also included stops at the following restaurants:
