GB: Paris Day Two: The Death March: Photo Set 3
Look, we remembered to take pictures of our lunch! We walked by this restaurant on the way to the Eiffel Tower and AS thought we should make a reservation for afterward. It was 1pm and there were two people in the whole place. I scoffed until we returned at 2pm and there was a 40 minute wait for a table inside. Luckily there was a table for two outside. It was in the shade and there weren't too many smokers passing by, so it worked out great.
We both had roasted chicken. White meat this time instead of the dark meat version AS had last night. It came in a creamy mushroom sauce and was delicious. We were able to order from the French menu easily today, though possibly because AS had looked up the English version of the menu this morning. Not sure.
To note from the tablescape: Coke bottles are tall and thin here. That's a glass bottle but I've also had a plastic bottle that was also tall and thin. And note the French phrasebook on the table. We keep it there as a flag to waiters to take pity on our French ordering.
After lunch we decided to keep walking to an art exhibit AS had read about online. Our route took us past the Eiffel Tower again as we crossed the Seine, so here are two more Eiffel pics.
