excusez-moi monsieur, i think my steak is not cooked!


What do you do when in Paris?
Wear a beret.
Visit the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame.
Eat steak tartare, duck, escargots and/or chevre.

Didn’t bring a beret.
Walked the Promenade Plantee (a disused viaduct which is now a 4km walk high above the street with gardens and parks and pushbikes and children).
Ate at Bistrot le Cap. Feeling rather full so can’t type much. Mon bon mari had the escargots with lots of garlic and butter sauce and the duck. I had a delicieux chevre encased in brik pastry with hazelnuts and honey.
I was a steak tartare virgin.
Not any more.

It wasn’t painful. It wasn’t over too quickly. It was actually very pleasant.

I might even give it another try.
