I'd recommend trying it out in Ethiopia, where the servers feed you by hand. It's quite an experience and I've only been served like this once in the US--in DC of course. Great pictures hope you get a chance to have many more experiences like this while you are in Paris. Glad to read that you had a good Ethiopian meal in Paris.

I'm so surprised that you had a gluten intolerance breakout after the Ethiopian, I would think that Ethiopian food would be a good bet, as I know that teff is often used in gluten free flour substitute blends.

I love eating out as a way to get to know another culture- but you are absolutely right, we do need to be more aware of the whole experience, not just the food on the table.

Many celiacs are really happy to find Ethiopian restaurants since they can eat the bread. Maybe your reaction was to something else? Or maybe that restaurant mixed the teff with wheat flour. Traditionally it is wheat-free. Check out this blog post from gluten-free girl about what she does with teff (the grain that bread is made from): http://glutenfreegirl.blogspot.com/2005/12/and-finally-theres-teff.html Injera is gluten-free.

It's so fun eating with bread! And I love traveling through a meal. My most recent food travel was actual travel (I went to Taiwan and Thailand!) but even when you're actually in a different country, you can experience the culture in different ways. For breakfast in Bangkok, my dad and stepmom would have coffee and croissants brought out to their room. I'd go out on the street and chat with the vendors, watch people going to work and school, and buy something delicious and authentic (and, may I mention, HELLA cheap!). So many people are supposedly "traveling" but often, in actuality, staying in their air-conditioned hotel room eating American food. I looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove Ethiopian food!

I definitely had a huge smile on my face as you explained the eating with the hands....it took me back to a very funny movie "Along came Polly", when Ben Stiller was experiencing Ethiopian food for the first time....truly a funny scene! Please keep sharing all your experience! Love em'! How exciting to have such a broad array of different types and styles of foods!

One thing I learned while talking about the injera: it's unleavened, so it actually "rises" when it hits your stomach! That explained why I felt almost uncomfortably full about an hour after eating there...so now, I *try* to stop eating while I'm still just a bit hungry. That way, I'm comfortably full later! Also, thanks so much for talking about your cameras -- I love your shots, and am currently shopping for a new "little guy" camera. I'll definitely try out your Powershot model! :-) Ethiopia is one of my *favorite* culinary places to travel — DC is blessed with a bunch of Ethiopian restaurants.

It was raining like mad and we HAD to pull over and take a break until it let up ( we were not liking driving on the left hand side of the road in the rain! ) Anyway, it was the only place open in a quaint outdoor mall so we gave it a go....OMG the BEST Indian Food I have EVER had and in New Zealand of all places??? How weird is that? Amazing! My man and I went to the most fabulous Indian restaurant just outside of Auckland, New Zealand a couple of months ago….It was totally random that we found it too.
