    Boeuf Bourguignon/Coq au vin (same stew, different meat) really are huge crowd pleasers and super, super easy. The only thing missing from Andong's recipe was the tomato pure - which I add to the onion/garlic mix and fry a little before adding the wine. Oh, and a teaspoon of dried mixed herbs works perfectly well.

    Wow! Great job! A couple of quick tips: in any braised French dish, you can wait for the flour. Right when you are about to reduce the sauce, take some flour and equal amount of butter. Work the butter into the flour so that you get something like a pie dough. This is called beurre manié. Because you incorporate the fat into the starch, it will thicken immediately like a roux. The second tip is that instead of the MSG, you can add just a bit of grated tomato. Tomato is chock full of umami. Just like the MSG, you don't need much -- definitely not enough to taste it. You can add it any time, but I tend to add it with the wine so that it cooks down.

    I spent two weeks in Paris on business, taking the métro to Maisons Alfort daily. The MOST memorable experience was getting up every morning and getting three freshly made croissants, then going to McDonald's for a large cup of French Roast and eating my breakfast on the train. The boulangerie where I got my croissants had no idea I was American, and it was as romantic an experience as I have ever experienced outside of a bedroom.

    You must start the baguette from the crunchy tip, not breaking it in half in the middle! Bonus points for eating that first piece while walking on the street, remainder of the baguette snugly tucked under your arm.
