Everyone likes a Top 10 List
But Paris defies Top 10 Lists – there are many more than 10 of anything

Researching The Roquefort, we noted Diderot calling it the “King of Cheeses”
And researched Diderot and whether he is buried in Paris
In fact, he is interred at Église Saint-Roch – or at least WAS
His tomb was emptied during the French Revolution (“and we will never find his body again”)
