Today I see a crushed baguette in the metro train tracks. I am sad. I think, the baguette has been wasted, who could have the audacity to simply toss such a wonderful gastronomical creation into the dirty tracks? Injustice.
Tonight I feast on french food - i dont think anything could make me happier. I have two glasses of house red wine, delicious, and crusty french bread, also delicious. Then my entree, or as the french call it, le plat (ironically, l'entree is the appetizer), arrives - du saumon cuit et mashed potatoes with olive oil - good lord, i'm in heaven. Salmon and potatoes is one of my favorite combinations of flavors so this plate strikes gold. it's incredible, what can i say, i'm sitting in a french brasserie in Paris, oh shit yes i am. And it only gets better - dessert arrives, ice cream with maybe 5 gallons of hot chocolate fudge sauce. There is just so much chocolate, and I don't have a problem with that at all. And what I love most is that my friends and I are at the restaurant for 2 hours, not 30 minutes. We sit and enjoy our wine, enjoy our food...that's how eating should be, a savored, otherworldly experience!
