Another day another bistro

The sun is shining and the beer is good. Just so you foodies know, I had a vegetable soup that seemed to be a puree of squash, carrots and some fabulous stock base served with a dark baguette. Lyn had the most delicious looking quiche with chevre cheese melted on top, that was about 2 inches deep and wide across with a salad. She said it was so rich it tasted as if it were made with heavy cream. As you can see by our plates it wasn't very good. (click on the picture for the evidence) It is a good thing we don't eat out 3 times a day or I wouldn't be getting through the turnstiles at the Metro. For my sister, the onion soup a few days ago was incredible. They use emmental cheese rather than the mozzarella I have had at home. C'est tres bonne!

Yes I can hardly wait until you get home and I hope you are not planning on resting because you have to tell me more and show me all of your pictures. This trip of yours has also been wonderful for me/us

I love this pic! That's what I think every day should be like. Having a smart little lunch at a charming bistro with a great friend! It's all good.

PS -I feel like I have to go and scrounge around for more food now, tho'! Your descriptions are wonderful. Perhaps you could be a food writer.
