Le diner

Paris in less than two days - Episode Six

After wandering about in our new neighborhood, our team happened upon a nifty petite Parisien restaurant. A group of 12 mostly unilingual English persons sitting at a long table right in the middle of the main room was surely most conspicuous. But the enjoyment was all ours.

You start with the bread (le pain) and enjoy that while your mind debates over duck (canard) versus foie gras (goose liver). Well, not a tough choice there. However, if you are the adventurous male roommates, you try the escargots for an appetizer.

Again, kudos to Barb for her tireless assistance in placing orders (did she ever receive a tip?). Eventually, all were happy with their choices taken off the wall menus. The bread kept coming and the water (l'eau) kept flowing.

At the end, we had to sample the authentic french custard desserts. Scrumptious. Then, after fighting over the bill (to make sure the other team member didn't pay too much) we were off to see more of the Paris nightlife.

The night is still young yet...
