Sorry to scare you all. No, I have not decided to do the blog only in French from now on. This is just a temporary thing. I participated in a blog cook-off of sort over at Blog-Appétit, but I got it done so late last night that I didn’t have time to translate it into an English post as well. I was planning on doing it today but all hell is breaking loose at the moment at work, so I shall have to get to this tomorrow.

No worries. See you tomorrow back in English, er, American, I mean.

    For a minute there, I thought I was in France. Oh, wait. I am. But, tomorrow may be a different story.

    Looking forward to seeing the recipes in English – the scallops look incredible and I might snag that recipe for an upcoming dinner party. Thanks Pim!

    First time here (the obvious start) beautiful site and perspectives. My two cents on the language issue, post in whatever langauge you want any time. I can understand enough French (barely any) to want to learn the language so that I can fully read your post. Can’t all great chefs speak multiple languages? I would suspect that knowing the cuisine of a nation gives you unique insights into its culture and language. 3/4 of the Japanese and Italian that I know are related to food terminology.
    Food does this, I am always (lovingly) pestering my students to help me translate recipes and food terminology from their native cuisines. So I say, keep posting in French, within the year I will be fluent.
