Best Coq au Vin in Paris, FR

At Chez René we had the best Coq au Vin ever created by human hands; but how did they get the sauce so decadently rich? It glistened. It was so dark it was almost black; so intensely flavorful it defied description.

The coq au vin at la Jacobine is, quite simply, 'to die for'. Those aren't even my words, but rather a direct quote from the British lady at the table next to me after her first bite.

The meat tinted duck purple and completely infused with the deep flavors of red wine... Auberge Bressane actually uses the tough rooster instead of fatter, younger chickens, ideal for this dish.

The chicken was moist rather than dry and it was hands down the best coq au vin I have ever tasted.
