Reed resto and cooking classes- Paris

We ate at Reed a couple of years ago. I don't see much buzz about this place now, and we are working on planning a return trip, and I am considering cooking classes with her. Anyone know what is going on with this place?

I think the "buzz" was mainly generated by one person on Fodors who, I think, is a personal friend. I think it's a place that is popular with Americans and expats. I think it is still open FWIW.

You can still find glowing reports about it here and there. It has never tempted me, although what I have read leads me to believe that the owner/chef is quite probably a charming person, if it were not for the annoying idea of naming a restaurant after oneself.

Catherine Reed and I have only become friends because I enjoyed her restaurant, as anyone does when enjoying any restaurant whether in Paris or at home!

Her restaurant is still being enjoyed by many. Her cooking clasess are very much enjoyed and is really where her main interests are. She would like to do only that!

a bientot..

I just returned from two months in Paris. Yes, I dined with Catherine. I always enjoy doing so. A nice quiet relaxed place and with good conversation.

Florent and Michael drop by hee often before going home. I met them there a couple of times, too.

Catherine and I also went to Florent's Flirt The for lunch on a Friday whe Michael is there, too helping him in the kitchen.

All a fun group.

a bientot..

I've been e-mailing her about a cooking class in October. She plans to be offering classes then.

We visited Reed a couple of times last year. In September we had dinner and went back for a cooking class and in December we had dinner again. We enjoyed the food and Catherine's hospitality each time.
