About this

Snails as food

Escargot in Paris involves eating garlic-butter snails at classic bistros like L'Escargot Montorgueil or Au Escargot, where the dish originated in the 19th century as a simple preparation of Burgundy helix snails baked in shells with parsley, shallots, and white wine. Served hot as an appetizer, it pairs with dry white wines like Chablis and reflects straightforward French bistro fare amid the city's central arrondissements.
