Going to France in January

I am taking my wife and my In-Laws to France for 9 days. We plan 2 nights in Paris, and the rest split up between Loire Valley and Normandy. Any suggestions? I am specifically looking for places to eat that will really reflect that regions specialties.

"that regions specialties"We can be more helpful if you let us know about how much per person you want to spend for dinner, and which region(s), Loire Valley and Normandy I assume? (Paris does not really have a regional food specialty, it offers many regions' specialties).Giving us an idea of your food budget for dinner per person is important, otherwise it's difficult for us to give you recommendations that will be useful to you. And then we'll try to help you.

Just a general tip. Plan your sightseeing very carefully. At this time of year, daylight hours are greatly reduced compared to most of the US, and often, there's a significant amount of fog. These factors won't really affect you in Paris, but it will limit your sightseeing in the Loire and Normandy.

Thanks for the replies and the tips! I am looking to spend around $40 per head per dinner. We will be touring within Normandy and Loire Valley, so any suggestions on restaurants in Rouen, Amien, Mont St Rennes, Lisieux...would be greatly appreciated.
