Paris Insights - Author Bio

Tom Reeves has been a confirmed Francophile since he first took an unpaid sabbatical in 1975 to travel to France to learn the language, see the country, and pursue a diploma in French language, literature, and civilization.  Returning to California in 1978, he eventually realized that while he had left France, France had never left him.  He moved back permanently in 1992.

Reeves’ love of French language and culture inspired him to create Discover Paris!, a travel service that caters to Americans interested in cultural travel to Paris.  His first book, Paris Insights – An Anthology, has been called “the kind of insider’s view of the French capital…that visitors pine for.”  His second book, Dining Out in Paris - What You Need to Know before You Get to the City of Light, is an indispensable guide for visitors in search of an authentic Parisian dining experience. The revised and expanded edition of Dining Out in Paris - What You Need to Know before You Get to the City of Light was published in June 2016.  It contains four bonuses:

1. Ten top restaurants in the Latin Quarter
2. Ten top fine-food stores in or near the Latin Quarter
3. Ten top tips on how to dine like a local
4. An explanation of the term "Fait Maison" and what it means for diners seeking authentically-prepared food.
