  Since I don't really feel like pontificating on much today, I figure I'll just show some gratuitous pictures of the food we've been eating.


Look at that giant meringue!  This massive proportion seems to be the way they are made in Paris.  It lasted me three days!  Otherwise, this is a typical lunch that J and I have experienced; a jambon (ham) sandwich.  This is an integral part to my new carb only diet.  This particular lunch is from Banette in the 15th and it was quite tasty.


There is definitely no lack of "libanais" food in Paris.  Right down the street from our current hotel is El Fares, so we decided to give it a try.  We split some hummus and both got the falafel.  It was very tasty and you got so much!  This could be a dangerous place to live next to!


Le Beau Violet is a tiny, tiny restaurant that has no lack of character for sure!  There is only a small bar separating you from the kitchen, so you get to experience the meal as it is cooked as well.  The two gentleman that prepared and served our food were very nice and helpful.  J and I couldn't figure out all the words and they didn't know all the English, but we figured out enough together to enjoy an amazing meal (the staff was in no way rude or put off by our language barrier).  I had an amazing sausage (I have no idea what it was made out of, but it was tasty!) and J tried goose for the first time.  I sneaked a bite and it was surprisingly good.  This place was probably my favorite meal so far and I would recommend it to anyone I know.




  So, this is a small taste of our parisienne culinary experience so far.  I look forward to trying more places and more delicious bites with you.
