We Visit The Escoffier Museum In Villeneuve Loubet Near Nice, France👩‍🍳🇫🇷🚙

[@dpnice7721]

Every tourist planning a trip to Nice should binge watch your videos. In fact the Nice municipalité should provide links to all your videos as a public service to tourists. Never been to Villeneuve but in my youth stayed at both the London and Paris Ritz and ate at the Savoy.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks DP. So glad you enjoyed

[@amandawang6991]

What wonderful work you are doing! Please keep going because there does not exist anything like this on youtube right now. A lovely and unique aesthetic as well.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Amanda!

[@jackoneil3933]

Thanks again for all the smiles and day out! It's always the highlight of day. I very much enjoined monsieur Escoffier's tale of larceny, seems like he understood that if you're going to make anomelette, you're going to have to break some eggs.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Jack. Indeed!

[@GeoffRoderick]

Thanks gentlemen! I didn’t have time to visit his museum when I was there so this is a real treat as I collect French cookery books.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Sadly I don’t think it gets as many visitors as it deserves

[@alfanut11]

thanks for the journey

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks for watching!

[@YourMajestyTheKing]

Yes. Having fantastic fries can really make my day. I had them in Quebec once. It's really specially. That night i actually walked up and down the tourist street in Montreal to see if i can find a special restaurant. When i gave up, i just entered the restaurant in front of me. To my surprise, it was actually a special restaurant. It's menu have only one item. Steak and Fries. It was fantastic. After i buy my next EV. Maybe i will go to Montreal for visit.

[@YourMajestyTheKing]

I really want to visit Ritz the one in the How to Steal a Million movie with Audrey Hepburn. Maybe it will be one of my destination when i visit Europe. Along with Sweden.

[@mnh1192]

You excelled yourselves today……foie de veau, then oh my gosh, elephant, rat, and camel!! It all sounds marvellous and French! Maybe time the beach bar did chien tartare! Another goody, thanks again both!

[@MeandMonAmi]

Merci!

[@rebekahlow8375]

Fascinating video! It's amazing how much he influenced so many of us who did not know of him. I enjoyed seeing the kitchen.The pressure cooker looked terrifying! The Christmas of 1870 menu is shocking! I would like to know what the diners thought of the meal. Love from Vermont

[@MeandMonAmi]

Yes. A part of me thinks it was a spoof menu but we never got to the bottom of it!

[@terrycrick3600]

Superb trip boys, keep well, Terry.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Terry!

[@eduardones6521]

Hello Bellos!!! Cheers from Chicago US!!! Love your videos and content. Beijos 💋🌞

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Eduardo!

[@archiegoodwinjr]

Tardy to the fan club, I am catching up with these delightful videos and, as a foodie, appreciate this one very much. I had read that the infamous menu Mr Boo translates was created by Chef Choron at the Voison restaurant. Learning that it was actually by Escoffier makes it easier for me to remember and recount. Please pass the digestif. Thank you very much, guys.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks. Glad to have you on board. More food next week!

[@lindawegner7074]

Another great visit with you both but do admit the idea of eating elephant and camel is quite hard to believe but there it was on the menu! thank you both for a wonderful time!

[@MeandMonAmi]

I kind of wonder if that menu was ever served!

[@Catadorish]

Cat served with rat..!!?? Blimey, wasn't that on the menu at the Eastern Balti..? Fascinating foodie episode. Good show..!

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks. Rat a two wee!

[@vanessapearce9397]

Thank you both for another fun, interesting vlog. To think The Ritz's celebrated history could be linked to half-inched eggs from The Savoy . How oeuf-ul! What was the name of the little restaurant you ate in please?

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Vanessa. I think it was called Chezloute

[@andyshacks7812]

As someone who loves cooking and food, I could spend hours in that museum. Mmmm foie de veau - yum! Another place added to the ever-growing list! Thanks guys ! 🙏

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Andy. It’s a fascinating little museum

[@richardturner4950]

On the subject of unusual menus, I was disappointed recently when the offered "Mermaid's Tit on Toast was declared "off" as the baker hadn't been. Great vid, as usual.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks. What’s in mermaid tit?

[@richardturner4950]

Tartar sauce I think.

[@CatherinesChronicles_]

Thank you, ill check it out next visit. I watched the history of his life on u tube.

He’s an interesting character

Wonderful blog.

Thanks Fran!

I like the Jazz music in this episode reminds me of Django Reinhardt very smooth music

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks

❤ that was wondering, thank you ❤

[@mecanomy]

Gentlemen!.. It's impossible not to be jealous of you. How nice are you traveling with AMI, what would you do before AMI..? I saw in a video recently, a man was charging the AMI from a portable energy source.. here is the victory of 48 volts..

[@MeandMonAmi]

Before ami there was my e bike!

[@patbowman6723]

That's so funny. In France you call them chips and in America we call them French fries. That's some menu, one I wouldn't eat from. I love the cemetery. Great video.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Jim.

[@patbowman6723]

@@christga100 I could also. They are all so different, interesting and beautiful.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Pat. Yes curious things cultures!

[@paulrogers8837]

One of those times when American english is closer to French!! Frites (fries) in France = French fries in USA = Chips in UK. BUT Chips in France = Potato chips in USA = Crisps in UK. Causes “interesting” meal combinations quite often…..

[@MeandMonAmi]

@@paulrogers8837 and don’t start me on Fannies!

[@deomemann3182]

Spectacular journey!!! I love it.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks!

[@gilliancrawford6129]

Did you get your Peach Melba at the end of the visit? Think it's part of the entrance fee, and the ladies there were very insistent we had it..... so we did of course

[@MeandMonAmi]

No! We were diddled!

[@Jamienomore]

The one thing I hate about French eating places is, I like my meat cooked through so I have to ask for it well done. You looked as if you were having really good fun in this Episode. I loved it and got more good Information.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Jamie. Blue everytime for me!

[@Pukkaphotographer]

I love to see your vlogs they relax me, I like to ask you what camera you use when you are walking please? Thanks keep up the good work

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks. iPhone 13 pro max no gimbal.

[@mikecane]

Cat served with rats? Uggggh. Always nice seeing a chapel and a cemetery. Very interesting! Thanks.

[@LifeinLancashire]

I'd have to definitely pass on the cat with rat . Though in the 70s, when we used to eat in a Chinese restaurant, it was a standing joke that the chicken dishes contained cat not chicken 🤣🤣. Sometimes you never know what you're being served with. Years ago, I knew a trainee chef and he was sent outside by the head chef to cut some grass to put into the parsley sauce because they'd run out of parsley.......this is a true story

[@MeandMonAmi]

That’s funny!

[@paulrogers8837]

Thanks for another great vlog…..but is M. Escoffier the reason why we scoff our food?

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Paul. It’s a good rumour to start but I don’t think so..

[@grobbosixtyone]

Every time I see you guys eating raw mince, I picture Mr Bean and his steak tartare

[@MeandMonAmi]

I think I missed that episode!

[@bevbond6152]

I believe that in Brittany, ‘ tomber dans les pommes’ actually means to be falling down drunk! Still I guess it was set out for children!

[@bevbond6152]

I’m late to this video playing catch up cos I can’t wait for the next one. Love French food, have Escoffier complete works cook book, but I can’t find ‘cat with rat’ thank goodness! Excellent episode thank you. I’m definitely going there.

[@MeandMonAmi]

It’s a charming and i think quite ignored little place

[@multinaute]

a good French accent

[@MeandMonAmi]

Mine?

[@Donncada1]

😃I love this video boys. You gave me virtigo in bed last night when I watched this. Tres Hitchcock.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Don. Hope you have recovered!

France and food what more could you want. Dead centre of the Cote D'Azur.

[@Caoucaren]

Not sure about a man who cooks a zoo for Christmas dinner and embezzles from his benefactors? I’ll pass on this museum visit. Always interesting though.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Raoul. To be fair it wasn’t an Escoffier menu just part of the collection
