evening on the Ile St. Louis














We strolled past Notre Dame and headed to the Ile St. Louis to find a restaurant for dinner. It was a beautiful, peaceful evening, and the dinner was magnificent, at a little place with only nine tables and five staff (three in the kitchen). I had crab and lobster bisque to start, which had such amazing flavors, running so deep, that I could eat it every night for a year and still enjoy it. For the main course, I had risotto with snails and frog's legs, which surprised me by having bones in them. Ria had a cheese plate, and fell in love with watercress. Thom had rabbit, served on a slate tile. For dessert, we shared an amazing chocolate pot de creme, served with bright purple gelato.
