El Fogon tapas restaurant 45 quai des Grands - Augustins, Paris, france 2005

It was mind-blowing, a perfect mix of Spanish/Basque and French style cuisine. The tapas will be enough to satisfy a hungry person's appetite. If you have several people, some might order the paella, but I only ordered the tapas and so can only speak on their behalf. Last, reservations are a MUST. If you don't have reservations, then you won't get sat or will be stuck at the bar--an impersonal space with 2 chairs in the back of the restaraunt. And so it was when we went for lunch there. Well-known french actor Pierre Arditi was in one corner with a man who spoke far too loudly, interior design deity Andre Putnam was a couple of tables away. As mere mortals we were suitable impressed by the company, not so much by the food.
