‘Paris is scam': Indian traveller slams ‘impossible-to-chew bread' and ‘disaster dessert' at her ‘most expensive' Eiffel Tower lunch
Ishwarya, an Indian traveller and one half of the United Kingdom-based Tamil travel vlogging duo 'Make Travel Easy,' left Paris with more than just photos of the Eiffel Tower –– she also carried home a story about a pricey lunch gone wrong. In a candid Instagram post, Ishwarya called it her the 'most expensive' meal in the City of Light, yet one that failed to impress. The bread, she said, was so hard it was nearly impossible to chew, and the starter arrived cold. Her experience wasn't unique, an elderly woman from New Zealand, seated beside her at the Eiffel Tower's second-floor restaurant, voiced the same complaints. A post shared by Make Travel Easy (@_maketraveleasy) When Ishwarya asked the server if they had softer bread, the answer was a flat no. She rated the starter just 2/10, gave the main dish a more forgiving 7/10, and declared the dessert, which she found overly creamy, a disaster at 1/10. 'I will never go here again,' she wrote. A post shared by Make Travel Easy (@_maketraveleasy) In her YouTube video, Ishwarya revealed that her day took an unexpected turn when she ended up helping the New Zealand woman, who struggled to eat, reach a supermarket for biscuits and then walk her back to her hotel. The review sparked debate online. Some commenters felt she simply didn't understand European dining culture. 'European breads are supposed to be hard… there are so many different types of breads,' one person pointed out. Another wrote, 'It must be your first time to eat in Europe. That's a normal bread for Europeans.' Others sided with her frustration. 'Paris is a scam,' wrote one. Another was even harsher: 'French food is actually pretty bad. We've been starving out in New Caledonia. No vege, limited fruit. Rubbish food.'
