Paris Lunch Sat 6 April 2024

[JessicaTam]

@LinaLee and I have decided that lunch in Paris in the spring is just the thing.

It is more than a year away, so there should be the odd sale or award fare available.

The most likely place for lunch is Les Deux Magots (Les Deux Magots - 6 Place Saint-Germain-des-Prés)

Nous rejoindrez-vous? (Care to join us?)

If the dates work for our travels I will put my hand up for this.

If I end up visiting family in London over Easter, I can fly out of CDG instead to save on taxes - although that'll mean missing out on the First class lounges in LHR. Hmm...

But if you transited via LHR you could still visit the F Lounge.

I was discussing this with one of the original attendees earlier this evening.
We discussed routing. JQ to SIN was mentioned.

Peut-être. Mais peut-être pas. J'essayerai.

My birthday is 5 April every year, so I might come, only on the condition that @Goodonya doesn't sing at me... But he won't find this thread for another ~13 months, so I better be copper until then.

Pierre n Madeleine are joining the trip too

Eh? It’s Paris …. and a side trip to Champagne region was the clincher is how @JessicaTam sold it to me

At least the restaurant you have selected presents their wines by terrior (sort of)... even in the English American Flag menu, which is perhaps best for AFFers, as our collective français est un fromage retardé

 

[penegal]

And it is reasonably priced compared to my usual haunts, such as L'Ambroisie which accepts payment in kidneys... and probably serves up kidney tartare... who knows with the French

Almost failed on the first challenge was the allergy list to cater to all taste and must also be a proper parisien cafe It’s the only one with some semblance of English info n some good selection of food

The local language is French... just so you know most of the people will speak French...

But its okay, Jess can translate for you... If you get stuck, the answer to every question is concrete

I am happy to translate, but I am not sure the Parisians will appreciate it when I speak German.

Presented by terrior? Dogs bring wines to the table?

 

[oz_mark]

Definite possible maybe I can get there.

I was also amused by the "English" flag
