Today was rainy, so I ran to the theatre to get tickets for La Belle et La Bête, and this time, I was successful, because the box office was open, and my french was good enough to buy three tickets. Excellent seats, I might add. So tomorrow is Spamalot and next Wednesday is La Belle. Very fun! When I got home, it was only misting a bit, so we headed out to get some lunch. I found a restaurant that sounded interesting on the website La Fourchette – the French version of Open Table. Still haven’t been able to snag a reservation to Frenchie, but will continue to try.
Anyway, the restaurant – Auberge du Clou – was excellent. I started with the Paté Maison and David had the onion soup and then David had the pork shank and I had salmon. David didn’t love the pork, but my salmon was great. Lovely, warm room as well. We were there just at the end of their lunch rush, because there was a lot of cleaning up being done, and the only other table downstairs was a couple with their dog. This was a first for this trip – having someone eating at a restaurant with their dog – one of my favorite things about Paris!
Then home, and David took a nap, then we read and watched some TV. Watched Addams Family Values and was able to switch it to watch in English, but after David went to sleep, I watched the end of Thelma and Louise in French because I couldn’t switch it to English. Still a great movie, in any language.
