Life as a Paris food writer when all the restaurants are closed - a podcast by Oliver Gee

The vast majority of restaurants in Paris are still closed due to the lockdown. Those that have opened their doors are only offering takeaway. 

So what does an acclaimed restaurant critic like Alec Lobrano do instead? 

I chatted with the American writer about all things food, his life under lockdown, and how every Paris restaurant is like a theatre. 

We also talk about the future of the Paris restaurant industry, what happens when someone spots him buying frozen pizza, and where he'd go for his last meal in Paris. 

Spoiler alert: He chose Le bon Georges which you can find at 45 Rue Saint-Georges, 75009 Paris.
