Food. AAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. So many meals, so little time. I think our favorite was in Hong Kong at Spring Deer. Or maybe it was Paris at Chez Andre. Anyway, neither are what would be described as one of the "Top" restaurants. Both are simply local favorites with locals.

Chez Andre just a few blocks from the George V. A cute little bistro filled on Christmas Eve with local families. All clearly having a great time in what seemed to be their favorite restaurant. Quickly became ours too! Wonderful Cabernet, of course perfectly coarse fresh bread and a simple salad to start. Why can't I ever make that perfect vinegrette dressing at home??? Must be the olive oil. Anyway, we were a bit jet lagged from the flight from the states so had a simple dinner. I had steak tartare with pomme frittes. Be still my heart. It was devine!!! And Jack had wonderful veal. Some wonderful cheese and espresso for desert.....so good!

Sorry R...I actually have to leave now for dinner here. Promise to continue later.

By the way, the most incredible fois gras....served on Air France. Really. It was to die for!!!! Really wanted a doggie bag for that!
