Yesterday was our last full day in Paris. Niece and nephew wanted to go shopping on the Champs d’Elysses. After about 15 minutes of fighting the crowds, they turned to us and said “we hate shopping!” 😂. We did have the unfortunate experience of ending up in a cafe on the street because nephew was starving. We just ordered some lattes and dessert. It was pretty terrible but we were expecting it to be. Interesting ceiling decor
Crepes
Banana Nutella crepes
Chcoclate ice cream
We retreated and went to a less crowded area for the rest of the day, but then regrouped and decided to do the most touristy thing of all: have dinner with a view of the Eiffel Tower!
We were seated at a window table with a pretty good view of the tower. Drinks.
asparagus with bearnaise
pizzetta
salmon tartare
Husband, niece and I played it safe with omelettes
nephew had pasta with ham and Comte
sister had coconut cod curry
dessert was a millefeuille
a liege cafe
pain perdu
and strawberry sorbet
with a sparkling reward
Overall, it was a pretty successful trip considering the size of our group and differing interests. We have some time before our flight, but I am not sure if eating will be involved. If it is, I will update this thread. If not, see you soon on the dinner thread!
