And so, for those of you who would like to see for yourselves some of the restaurants, places, and events that I’ve written about, here are a few details. I can’t, unfortunately, give precise dates of the fairs and festivals, as these will change by a day or two each year, but I’ve included contact addresses where appropriate. Get in touch by phone or fax (much of rural France is not yet plugged in to e-mail), and all will be revealed. The organizers of these events welcome a big turnout, and I’ve found that inquiries usually receive prompt and helpful replies. Good luck! I hope you have as much fun as I did.THE INNER FRENCHMANMarius et Janette, 4 avenue George V, Paris. Phone: 01.42.23.41.88. Fax: 01.47.23.07.19. One Michelin star.
