Those of you who read my reviews will stumble upon a recurring theme of unexpected food epiphanies. The most wonderful food-related experiences are invariably unplanned and I have to say that every single one of them outshines my best fastidiously-planned food adventures. In this case, it was a wet December stumble through Paris, wet and cold and happening upon this wonderful pop-up featuring La Ferme's wondrously honest family farm offerings. The baguette was lightly toasted with carapace of light crunchy goodness giving up its innards of soft, slightly moist and faintly yeasty bready wonder.   The mi cuit foie was sliced just right, about 1.5cm thick and had a hearty earthy flavor basenote.  There were also delightful and surprising flavors reminiscent variously of black truffle, wet oak, tanned calf-leather and cherry wood-smoke.   The flavor profile of the foie was less butter and more offal, which was a very pleasant surprise. I had both the fig jam and the sweet onion confit as accompaniments; my personal favorite remains the onion confit for this foie. www.lafermedupuntoun.com read more
