How many times have we thrown away packaging just seconds after eating the food it contained? This is the reflection that Benjamin Peri made, in the summer of 2018, while jogging in the Tuileries Garden, in Paris, then struck by the astronomical amount of packaging used that truncated in the garbage at just a few different points of restoration. Faced with this problem, he decided to act by creating Pyxo.   Animated from an early age by an ecological conscience, Benjamin Peri first did a preparatory scientific class, then obtained his engineering degree. Over the years and his training, he developed the desire to undertake. It is therefore after various professional experiences and an ecological awakening linked also to the resignation of Nicolas Hulot from the government, that Benjamin decided to co-create Pyxo, a solution that supports the catering sector in its transition from disposable packaging to reusable packaging.  According to estimates by the Agence de la transition écologique (Ademe), take-away catering generates more than 220,000 tonnes of packaging each year in France, the majority of which is single-use plastic. This is precisely what Pyxo wants remedy this situation by offering reusable packaging solutions to restaurants and consumers.   Throughout this episode of On The Way, Benjamin Peri explains the difficulties he encountered in the development of this project and in the democratization of packaging reusable. He also tells us about his experience and the path he has taken to arrive, today, to collaborate with restaurant giants such as McDonald's, Sushi Shop, or Sodexo to change the uses for more virtuous practices. Very good listening!   Books recommended by Benjamin: - The Meadows Report - How everything can collapse from Pablo Servigne - L'âge des low tech from Philippe Bihouix

If you don’t want to spend your whole week of vacation in Paris you can pair your trip with other area in Europe. There are 18 neighborhoods of paris. So depending on what you want to get out of your stay is how you can determine which to stay in. Keep in mind that nothing is really far away so you can stay in a neighborhood on the outer edge and still go into the city and visit the Eiffel Tower, museums, est. If you are taking a train into the city you may think about staying in the area of your train station, just so that it will be easier to get to and from your hotel. If you want to be able to travel around by just walking, you should think about stay closer to the center of the city. A good fact to know is that if a hotel has a three star or higher rating, it has to have air conditioning. Just so you know Airbnb is getting harder to find in Paris due to restrictions. If you really want to visit the Louvre and you are traveling with kids there is a program called THATLouthat has a scavenger hunt for families to even compete with other families if you wanted. The Louvre also has a late night on Wednesdays that can be less crowded that during the daytime. Right by the Eiffel Tower there is a place you can get a boat ride along the Seine River. If you plan your day out right you can go up and see the Eiffel Tower and than when you are done get a boat ride on the river. Make sure to get your tickets in advance if you want to go up into the Eiffel Tower. Getting them in advance will save you from waiting in the long lines that there will be. They usually start selling ticket 90 days in advance. This doesn’t mean you have to get them that early but depending on the time of year that you are visiting the quicker these tickets will sell out. Tuileries Garden is very beautiful area, there is this path that leads you to the garden that has trees on either side and shops all along the way. Angelina Parisis known for its rich and creamy hot chocolate. They also have pastries, tea, coffee and other treats. If you like hot chocolate this is a must do stop for you and your family. If you have more time in Paris and want to take a day trip or two here are some close areas that are great to visit such as Versailles or Reims. Reims is the region of champagne so you can see more of a country area of France and do some champagne tasting. Fontainebleau is similar to Versailles, but is lesser known and is not nearly as busy as Versailles. If you are traveling with kids and have a stroller. You need to keep in mind that there are a lot steps and if you had planned on taking the subway/metro there are no escalators or elevators if you bring the smallest stroller you have, that will help you navigate easier. Paris has really great food and a really good variety. Theres is really no bad food places in Paris. You find that while there are a lot of options for sit down dinners there are also a lot of places where you can just grab some quick food and keep exploring the city. Make sure you say Bonjour! when you are going in anywhere and Au revoir! when you are leaving places.  BEST PLACE TO TAKE FAMILY PHOTO Any photo with the Eiffel Tower in the background is a great shoot! FAVORITE TRAVEL GEAR Old Navyleggings in black are Michelle’s favorite because you can dress them up or down, and she pairs them with her Converseslip on sneakers or a pair of boot. She also likes layer to keep warm but still cool by shedding layers.

Chef Lucas Felzine has twinkling eyes and a kind smile. He's a chef that uses words like soul, emotions and feelings when talking about how he cooks, a cook who is constantly after the elusive umami taste and takes pleasure in mixing the unexpected to bring new sensations to his customers When he was a chubby three-year-old, Felzine used to drag a chair next to the stove where his grandmother was cooking, climbing on top of the chair to add whatever took his fancy to the pot and instructing his grandma to taste his concoction. Even as a little boy, Felzine had a predilection, coupled with the confidence, for experimenting with food. His Parisian Mamie never discouraged him, even though she did not lie to little Lucas about how the food tasted. Irresistable attraction Thirty years later, Felzine set up his own restaurant, Uma, in the heart of Paris, not far from the Tuileries Garden and the Louvre Museum. A restaurant that explores Nikkei cuisine with a French touch à la Felzine. Nikkei cuisine was born in Peru, a fusion between the Japanese cuisine brought in the 19th century with the first migrants and the local Peruvian food. The name is a word used on both the Asian and American continent. It means horse in Japanese and water in Quechua, an indigenous Latin American language. Uma is also short for umami, the fifth taste after sour, bitter, sweet and salty, named by chemist Kikunae Ikeda in 1908. Umami is also that elusive taste that combines all flavours. Felzine says it is difficult to pinpoint exactly and describes it as something one is irresistibly attracted to. Similar to a child’s taste for ketchup. Cooking with soul “I want, when people taste my food, that they have a lot of sensation. I want to touch their soul,” says Felzine The chef believes in making almost everything himself, from smoking fish to making various condiments and curries, sometimes with as many as 30 ingredients, like his black Peruvian curry inspired by the Chef Pascal Barbot. Felzine works with a few suppliers around Paris for fresh produce and one in south-western France, a biochemist who upped and left Canada with his anthropologist wife and now grows, among other exotic curiosities, huacatay. That is a herb from South America “between basil and mint with a bubble gum taste at the end”. The biochemist is also growing papaya trees in Samadet. Felzine is constantly exploring new ways of preparing food, even deconstructing what he has created to build something different or totally new. So, even though the menu of the restaurant does not change continually, there might be some alterations in the kitchen. Boredom and routine are words he abhors. “I like to discover something new, all the time, everyday,” he says. Explosion of flavours In his kitchen, one will find mostarda from Italy, aji panca from Peru, tamarillo from the Andes, to name but a few of an array of ingredients he enjoys experimenting with. His preparations involves a high number of ingredients and often result in a wealth of flavours exploding on one’s taste buds. Felzine’s skill lies in striking the right balance so that they all play their part harmoniously in a composition concocted by the chef. “When you follow your instinct, it’s OK,” says Felzine, “If you use all your senses, you see all, you know all.” Chef William Ledeuil, whom he worked with, once told him that he liked his sensitivity. At that time, an inexperienced Felzine was taken aback by such a comment. Now he understands that his instinct and his feelings are what set him apart and drive his creativity. “Every dish is different, you transfer your sensitivity, your emotion, angry or happy,” he explains. Gyozas have it all Gyozas, the Chinese-origin dumplings now popular around the world, are Uma’s signature dish. They allow Chef Lucas Felzine to write a culinary partition fusing Japan, Peru and France in one bite. He says it is the best representation of Nikkei food. “I can put all that I want in a gyoza, all that I imagine. It is a really a fusion between all influences, all ingredients,” declares Felzine. He says that obtaining a Michelin star is not of paramount importance even though he admits it would be flattering. But what he cares most for is the “star in the eyes of my customers when they are eating my food”. “I want to make this food because I want to stop time” says Felzine. Whether he has succeeded in that aim or not, his food is a culinary voyage for your taste buds.
