The tradition on The Simple Sophisticate podcast to conclude each episode with a Petit Plaisir, where a book, a film, a show, a recipe, anything that is a simple pleasure to satiate your sophisticated taste is recommended, began more than 10 years ago, a few years before the podcast premiered, and continues to be a popular component of listeners.
Petits Plaisirs can be a range of things, and as often happens here on TSLL, many petits plaisirs are also French or British finds. And as it happens this year, the entire TOP 5 list is either one or the other. ☺️🇬🇧🇫🇷
Keeping that in mind, not every Petit Plaisir falls into these two categories, so be sure to explore all of the Petit Plaisirs here in the Archives or on the podcast’s IG page – @thesimplesophisticatepodcast.
