Taken on 27th April.

Starter - Eggs en cocotte with spinach and truffle

Main course of scallops

Main course of libaise bread with chicken & hummus

Selection of hams, salmon and cheeses

Dessert of American pancakes with griddled banana and coconut

From the patisserie trolley (we had to have one of each )

(black forest macaron, passionfruit jelly adn paris-brest)

pannacotta with salted butter caramel, strawberry & banana cake and and a chocolate hazelnut cake

Everything was delicious, from the Christine Ferber strawberry jam which we very nearly finished, to the lemon cake on the table to the pink grapefruit juice. And to underline the kindness we have always found at this marvellous establishment, I asked the Restaurant Manager in my best French where I could buy CF jam in Paris. When he realised I was a "foodie" (as we were chatting about her Alsace shop) he went to the kitchen and came back with 3 jars of CF jam for us as a gift !

A wonderful treat, reasonably priced at 70e per head including a glass of Tatti and endless mineral water. I highly recommend it.

I will be in Paris for a month beginning mid September. I have just emailed the Crillon (Les Ambassadeurs) re brunch for early October. I usually enjoy dining at their l'Obelisque, too.

I have also e-mail Le Bristol re their Saturday afternoon High Tea/Fashion Show for that time of the year. A 50 euro, reservation thing. Sounds like a fun thing to do.
