Le Dîner en Blanc We’re super excited to be attending this year’s Diner en blanc, an elevated picnic soiree, where incredible times are had and wonderful memories are made! We’re looking forward to champagne toasting with new (& old) friends, eating fine food, drinking fantastic wine, dressing up in all white along and dancing the night away! Last year’s Le Diner en Blanc in Dallas had over 1,600 people in attendance! This fantastic event and as some would say, ‘posh picnic’, started in Paris and has grown to over 70 cities in more than 25 countries! Amazing! There’s also some fantastic sponsors such as Apothic Wine, Moet Ice Imperial and Southwest Airlines. Another exciting element to this posh picnic party is that the location is kept secret until guests arrive onsite! 2015’s Diner en Blanc was at the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge and ended with an incredible fireworks display! We’re filled with anticipation and excitement for what this year holds and you can follow us on Instagram @FortuitousFoodies and on Twitter @FortuitousFoodi to not only find out this year’s location, but also for real-time updates! FAVORITES UNDER $100 On a more personal note, we’ve been francophiles ever since we were little. My mom actually lived…

Main St. Bread Baking Co., Grapevine Texas Grapevine’s Main Street Bakery is absolutely delicious. I close my eyes as I take a bite into my chocolate eclair and it brings me back to my college days of studying abroad in Paris. My sister’s raspberry tartlet and the comparison is undeniable. Grapevine’s bakery knows what they are doing… quality ingredients, gorgeous presentation and super delicious! Next time you are enjoying a day in Grapevine make sure and take the time to stop in say hello and pick up some amazing treats!

Saint Emilion Saint Emilion is considered by many to be the best French restaurant in Fort Worth. Being a lover of French cuisine and fine dining, I knew that I had to try this restaurant to see for myself. After looking at the menu online, I immediately called to make reservations. Also, their menu offers classic French cuisine with an influence from the Saint Emilion region in southwestern France, where the chef is originally from. The atmosphere inside of the restaurant is quaint and intimate. There are only about fifteen tables inside, which create a feeling of exclusiveness. The dim lighting and French country decor create a comfortable ambiance. The wine list is extensive and offers unique wines from around the world in all different varieties. Also, to accompany my meal, I ordered a glass of the Pinot Noir from Routestock Cellars in Willamette Valley. It had notes of raspberry, cherry, violets, and spice. My boyfriend, Stephen, had a glass of the Malbec from Chateau Famaey in France. He said it was the perfect compliment to his steak-frites. Our Meal To start off, I ordered the Saint-Jacques du Chef, Jumbo sea scallops prepared in a light and flavorful butter garlic…
