Due to the unfortunate circumstances with the closing of all the airports in Paris... my plans to travel to Spain and Morocco fell through... Dommage.
However, within the past two days I have been able to see more of Paris than ever before. I have found new alley ways, new cafés, new parks, and beautiful new restaurants... just by taking to time to wander and get lost.
Paris au printemps is truly a beautiful sight. I am so excited to continue to have the extra time to "profite" and enjoy this city from a new perspective. Since I will have the extra time, I also hope to document more of my experiences and new "findings".
For example,
I just got back from my favorite new restaurant. Chez Janou. This "bistrot provençal" is located in a one of my favorite quartiers. The food was "magnifique" and the atmosphere was relaxed and "familial". I shared an entrée of "tomates rôtis avec chèvre" (roasted tomatoes with goat cheese) and for the plat principal "bar grillé" (grilled sea bass served with a side of ratatouille) and to finish une "mousse au chocolat" (enough said).
It is restaurants like this that truly define the cuisine culture in Paris.
Check out there wonderful website and make sure you watch their "film"!
