honeymoon in europe: paris
Our first night in Paris, after the Whatsit Tower, we went to Chez Agnes. What an introduction to the Paris gustatory experience! It was, all things considered, the best meal we had on our trip. Goat cheese on rye bread, atop a salad. Salmon in brown gravy. Roasted pork chops. Chocolate pie. And two bottles of wine! The ambience was perfect: the place is tiny (I had to move a table to get into my seat), fits about 20 people total, and is run entirely by Agnes (and her little dog Gypsy). She takes orders, cooks, buses tables... I can't say enough good things about it. If you go to Paris, you must eat here. | |
![]() All the best restaurants we went to in Europe were extremely modest looking on the outside (unlike the one in Brussels, which looked fancy but sucked oeufs.) |
![]() Wine to die for. Lots of it. |
