The Greenmarket had a Parisian visitor today, Gregory Marchand of Frenchie, who was shopping for an event for tomorrow in Brooklyn. I'm so jealous of anyone who is going! I couldn't get into Frenchie when I was in Paris in May. Maybe next time.Well, at least I got to tell Carmen Quaglia of Union Square Cafe (who I met also shopping) how much I loved his ricotta gnocchi this week! So nice to be able to tell the chefs when you have a great meal.

At least I got to have a picture with Chef Marchand!
