| The Librairie Gourmande is a bookstore with nothing but cookbooks, old and new, from many times and places. NOTE: the word librairie in French means BOOKSTORE, not library! |
A few photos of the interior of the Librairie Gourmande:
 |
| On the second floor: more cookbooks as well as novels with food themes, sociology, history, and specialized cookbooks. |
 |
| They even have several copies of Modernist Cuisine. |
The two books that I bought:
 |
| Recipes from the Ivory Coast, in a book published there. |
 |
| Moroccan Cuisine: the very knowledgeable store clerk told me this was a classic. |
And in another store, I saw a beautiful Mona Lisa:
... but didn't buy it. I also went to Notre Dame Cathedral, but the cookbook store was the best today.

Cookbooks or Notre Dame? Yeah, I'd take the cookbooks, too! Heaven sent!
That is most definitely my kind of store Mae! Amazing!!! It reminds me a little of Kitchen Arts and Letters in the city.
You chose two winners, Mae. I do wonder how you will translate the recipes to share but I know you will figure it out.
I wasn't expecting you to be able to join us for Cookbook Wednesday. I'm delighted that you have. Thanks Mae...Enjoy:)
Wow, Mae. I am envious to say the least!
