France: A Parisian dining spot worth the search


12:00 AM PST, January 07, 2007

"IF you are interested in a memorable Parisian dining experience, you need look no further than Au Bon Saint Pourcain. It is a small restaurant that is somewhat difficult to locate but well worth the effort.

"The gregarious, non-English-speaking chef is also the owner and takes delight in seeing his customers enjoy his varied dishes."

A la carte main dishes about $25.

Au Bon Saint Pourcain, 10 bis, Rue Servandoni, 6th arrondissement (Métro is St.-Sulpice), Paris; 011-33-1-43-54-93-63.

Britain: a treasure trove, and it's free

"I was astounded to discover that the London Antique Silver Vaults, home to a vast collection of antique silver, charge no admission. I strolled from vault to vault, each a shop with its own specialty, and marveled at the endless selection, priced from $39 to mortgage-the-house. In a quiet part of the legal district, the vaults have a rich history and a rich clientele. Looky-loos welcome."

London Silver Vaults Chancery House, Chancery Lane (off High Holburn), London WC2A 1QS; 011-44-20-7242-3844, http://www.thesilvervaults.com .
