Passing from one century to the next, storyteller Christine Graffard offers a fun and endearing vision of the history of food in the Val-de-Marne by cutting it into small appetizing pieces. The flying table of King Louis XV in Choisy-le-Roi, the bread of the Revolution, the most beautiful potato in Fontenay-sous-Bois, the wine of Limeil or the shared vegetable gardens that mark the landscape of the suburbs are to be consumed without moderation.
