We spent the morning visiting Musee d'Orsay. It was great for the kids to see some of Monet's water lily series after our recent visit to Monet's Garden in Giverny.
After the museum, we went for lunch at Fish La Boissonnerie in 6e, our final gut busting lunch in Paris before we leave. The restaurant is run by a Kiwi and a Cuban with an Englishman in the kitchen.....in Paris.....interesting. This set-up makes the restaurant particularly popular with
English speakers.

Very interesting frontage. |
|
Boiled egg with potato salad. Delicious. |
|
Lamb liver with melon and pickled onions. A little taken aback when the dish first arrived. The liver looked a bit dry. But it turned out great. The sweetness of the melon and the sourness of the pickled onion went really well with the liver. |
|
Pork with vegetables on a sweet potato mash. Pork is moist and tasty. Went really well with the sweet mash. |
|
Steak with parmesan polenta and courgettes. Beef is a mouth watering medium rare. Love the polenta. |
|
Tuna with cabbage and cucumber with black current sauce. Another wonderful dish with still pink tuna. |
|
Apricot crumble. Different but yummy. |
|
Banana bread with chocolate ganache. |
|
G wanted the cherries pannacotta but they ran out. G was really disappointed and must have looked the part coz the waitress came back with whatever they have left of this dish just for him! |
Very good food in a cosy setting.
Our last gourmet meal in Paris.....with preparation, the food we had on this trip is generally good. Very pleased but starting to miss Oriental food.........
