About Wendy Lyn & The Paris Kitchen

Experience Paris’ food scene like a local with culinary insider Wendy Lyn – the Founder|Editor of The Paris Kitchen™ – named by the Wall Street Journal as one of the top ten culinary guides in Europe.

Originally from the Deep South, Wendy is a Paris-based food writer with an enviable network of food and wine contacts she considers family after having worked many years as an international public relations & restaurant consultant to some of the best chefs and restaurants in the world, including Alain Ducasse, Charlie Trotter, Guy Savoy, and launching the first USA red Michelin Guide.

When she isn’t eating and drinking with chef and restaurateur pals in Paris, you can find her taking food-curious travelers on private tasting tours to eat & drink through the insider addresses pulled directly from her little black book.

Although she’s been featured on NBC: The Today Show, in  the Wall Street Journal, Condé Nast Traveller, Travel + Leisure, the Chicago Tribune, United Airline’s Hemispheres, CBS Sunday Morning, Food Arts, the Food TV Network USA, SBS Maeve O’Meara’s Food Safari Australia and is considered the “Paris Operative” by the big house in Washington, DC… no worries about any snob factor, she is still a down-to-earth Southern gal at heart who craves fried chicken & Champagne (a ritual on Sundays) as much as she does caviar and Guy Savoy’s black truffle artichoke soup with mushroom brioche buns slathered in truffle butter.

“Slathered” is the key word honey.
