Can life get any better?Green pea soup (cold) with cream. Sounds odd, but is really, really good. Goat cheese on toast. Sounds good, and it is. Very. That’s a basil leaf on top.
Tomato jam, mozzarella, bonito and basil sorbet. Unbelievably good.Oh, the French and their butter. Yes, this was excellent.Rolls: fresh, sour, warm enough to melt the butter, delicious.Deep fried celeriac, a side dish to the flank steakFlank steak on celeriac puree, as tender as filet mignonVealWe had the souffle. OMG, that’s all I can say.

Crepe des Fruites Maison Robert, delicious, but… this crepe and 2 cups of tea, $40 American? Mais non!!

All that and a bottle of wine… less than $10. Hint: when in France, buy bread, butter, cheese and wine. They all must be subsidized or something! Then dine at your hotel or apartment.

You’re going to need some fresh bread but if you can’t get that easily, then some crackers.
I LOVE blue cheese!
A glass of red wine or a martini will go…
