From the Author:

A book for bistro lovers and bargain hunters
"Best Bistros & Brasseries" is written for two types of people: people who love bistros, and people who love bargains. In our experience, bistros and brasseries deliver some of the best dining values found anywhere, offering delicious, satisfying fare at reasonable prices in comfortable, often charming, surroundings.

The idea for BBB was born in Paris. Like many Francophiles, Michele and I would measure the success of our vacations in Michelin stars. But at some point in our travels - perhaps our first dinner at Andre Allard - we woke up to the fact that you could dine as well for half the price, and in much friendlier surroundings, in the hundreds of bistros and brasseries throughout Paris.

Our enthusiasm for Parisian bistros encouraged us to seek out their counterparts at home. With a few good friends, we began compiling a list of three or four dozen places, but we"re now at over twenth-five dozen and still counting. We have also prepared listings of our favorite bistros in Paris and San Francisco. As a bistro enthusiast, and/or budget-minded gourmet, we hope you enjoy our guide which focuses exclusively on this ever-popular, value-packed segment.
