Stopped into a large bistro that was near empty. Maybe a bad sign, but we were game.
We had kir's again that came with some tiny crackers. Jeri had an open face croque monsieur (ham & gruyere with a little French mustard) that was wonderfully browned and yummy. I had cod with a burre blanc sauce. Just ok, the burre blanc was nice, the cod was over cooked, but tasty, and the noodles (good god, why the noodles?) were noodles. Blah.
Waitress was a little pissy too.
The highlight of the evening though was my first French pate of pork liver, served with onion jam. Yup, it's like braunschweigert, but like about 10 times better. Especially with French baguette. :) Fan-fricken-tastic.
And of course, I'm in Paris with my lovely wife. :)
