who said kimchi tacos don't exist in bordeaux?
It's official. I've finally found kimchi in Bordeaux. After eight months, I discovered kimchi tacos - a bit different from Diavola's Dictator pizza but definitely still delicious. So I figured it was time I put together a list of some of my favorite places to eat, sip, and shop around Bordeaux. Be sure to check back, as I'll continue to update it.
Eating
Au Bistrot - great French food
Bibibap - kimchi tacos
Cafe Kokomo - good for brunch
Fromagerie Chez Delphine - my favorite cheese shop; also has tables in the sun during summer where you can get a glass of wine and a selection of cheeses picked by Delphine herself.
Hook’s - serves fish tacos - need I say more?
Horace - great coffee and brunch
La Boulangerie - self-explanatory
La Maison du Glacier - my favorite ice cream shop - get the yuzu or the salted caramel
Madé - Hand Poke Bar - great cocktails to go with their poke bowls
Maison Hermelin - my favorite boulangerie
Sipping
Aux Quatres Coins du Vin - great wine bar that also serves the most amazing foie gras
Café Piha - in addition to their amazing coffee, they have avocado toast and a bbq sandwich. plus it's where I buy my coffee.
