Epicurious

Gastronomers unite. Michelin starred chef, Paul Bocuse wrote the forward for a delicious new book, Food in the Louvre. Whet your appetite for art and sustenance by paging through this smorgasbord of Eugène Delacroix's mouthwatering crustaceans, Luis Eugenio Meléndez's juicy green figs, and Jean Simeon Chardin's jar of olives. The wedding feast at Cana by Paolo Veronese may bring out your culinary queen, so chef Yves Pinard from the Grand Louvre includes some inspired recipes to take it to the next level. Hungry for more? Rice-A-Roni is giving away $2,500, which should cover a ticket to Paris to see the paintings and dine at the Grand Louvre, when it reopens in June. Chow down and enter.

Artful

Pop icon Andy Warhol said, "In the future, everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes." The Visa 2010 Fan Favorite Promotion may give you less than 30 seconds. If you win, your anonymity may be shattered when your name runs on screen during a 30-second commercial. Your compensation? A Visa pre-paid card worth $5,000. That's plenty enough to pay for a round trip ticket to Paris, a few nights at the plush L'Hotel, and a bountiful look at all the art you desire. Start with Le Louvre, where The Da Vinci Code was set, and gaze at the Mona Lisa. Pay homage to the Impressionists at the Musée D'Orsay. Think about wandering around Auguste Rodin's home and gardens at the Musée Rodin, and gape at his extraordinary sculptures, including his famous Thinker. You can also explore The Musée National Eugène Delacroix, where the French Romantic painter lived and worked. The Musée National Picasso, located in a hôtel particulier, is packed with more of this astounding artist's work than you can imagine. Feeling bookish? Check out Victor Hugo's home and workspace. A great vacation is a work of art. Design your own and enter.

Voilà
