\nGone to Paris Restaurant, that is. It’s our 8th wedding anniversary today, so we went out for a nice meal to celebrate (okay, want to hear something really pathetic? We made the reservation for 7:15pm so we could watch the east coast feed of 24 before we rushed off to the restaurant!). Peter even brought me a flower. He hardly ever gets me flowers. As you all know, I prefer edible items. Heh heh.
\nI was too embarrassed to take photos of our food, but let me tell you, it was yummy. We had the fixed price meal, which is a great deal–you get an appetizer, entree, and dessert for $29.50. For the appetizer, I had the Spiced Sauteed Shrimp with Oranges, and Peter had the Escargot with Mushrooms. For the entrees, I had the Pan-seared Squab with Braised Savoy Cabbage, and Peter had the duck. It had some foie gras in there somewhere, too, I think. I had never had squab before. It was a bit fattier than I had anticipated, but it was delicious. For dessert Peter had the dark chocolate cake with creme anglaise. That was no cake, though. I swear it was like some velvety chocolate mousse-like goodness! I had the apple tartin. We also got some free little goodies: gougeres at the onset of the meal and a hazelnut parfait with dessert. Everything was impeccably presented, and the chef even wandered around talking to people.
\nSince I can’t show you any evidence of our meal, I will leave you instead with another image of heavenly food (I had to mailorder these because it is not readily available on the west coast):
