American restaurateurs shamelessly slap the term "bistro" on everything from awful chain outlets to places with $55 entrees. The French reserve the term for modest neighborhood spots like Petit Robert Bistro that unpretentiously serve delicious, relatively simple meals at workingman's prices. "Little Bob's" hits the bistro bull's-eye squarely with fine traditional Parisian fare, brusque but professional service, and nary an entrée over $20. C'est le luxe sans le luxe.

Definition Culinaire
Déglacer
(Pour water, wine or vegetable juice, into a rosting pan to delute the glaze left from meat)  Verser un peu d'eau au fond d'une poêle ou d'un plat encore chaud où vient de cuire une viande par exemple, remuer et récupérer le jus ainsi obtenu pour accompagner le plat. On peu également déglacer avec de la crème, du vin, du bouillon, du jus de citron, selon l'aliment. Le déglaçage permet de dissoudre les sucs de cuisson afin d'en faire une sauce d'accompagnement particulièrement goûtue.

Débrider
(Remove strings of a trussed bird)
Action de retirer les ficelles qui maintenaient une volaille, après la cuisson.

Galette des Rois, January 2, 2011
The French tradition of serving a frangipane-filled tart known as the 'galette des rois' (or the gateau des rois in the South of France) on or around January 8, (the first Sunday of each New Year) dates back to the 14th century.
The festival takes place around Epiphany, the twelfth day of Christmas, when the wise men visited baby Jesus. According to tradition, the 'galette des rois', was to "draw the kings" to the Epiphany. During the French Revolution, the name was replaced with 'Gâteau de l'Égalité' (Equality cake), as the word 'king' was hardly in fashion!
