**WORLD PREMIERE** The Paris Films: “J’Eat Paris” & “David Lebovitz in Paris”
December 26, 2005 | By Adam Roberts | 13 CommentsIt is with great honor and self-aggrandizement that I present to you two of the greatest films to hit the internet since Pamela Anderson uttered the words, “Tommy Lee, I do.”
Dragging a video camera through Paris takes work and effort, and here is the product of that work and effort. The first film–”J’Eat Paris”–stars John (on the right), his brother Chris, and myself as we eat our way across Paris.
The second film features the renowned David Lebovitz as he treats us to one of his much sought-after chocolate tours, but starting with a tour of his favorite Paris market. The man is a consummate professional.
David expressed concern over my choice of music, but I think I handled that issue nicely. These films, if not future Oscar winners, will certainly survive as my own special, personal souvenirs from a fantastic trip. Hope you enjoy them too.

The music of David’s film makes it a bit difficult to understand everything he says but it was still a great film. Thanks Adam, I’ll bet it was amazing to hang out with David Lebovitz.
Great flicks! Very fun seeing all the markets and shops of Paris. Thanks.

Compliments to the videographer! Very fun to watch. Was some of the music you used from Amelie? It sounded familiar.

Hi Adam, Looks like I missed you by a few days- it would have been great to meet you while holidaying in Paris. It’s a pity that you didn’t enjoy L’Atelier cos we had a great meal there. Catch you some other time!
