-Hotel courtyard.
-For breakfast: crepe with apples and carameland an amazing Spanish omelet. No, I did not eat the tomatoes. Jay took them for me.
-We had our traditional ham sandwiches, then headed to Musee d'Orsay. After a couple wrong turns, we got there, and took one look at the line, and decided against going inside. At least on that day. Jay doesn't love museums (big shocker), so we moved on.
-We got back on the metro and went to Champs-Elysees to do some shopping. We walked all the way up and down the avenue, and Jay is the only one who bought something- a new suit. It's true. I'm not a shopper. I have a hard time spending money on clothes, shoes, or anything other than groceries really.
-We went back to the hotel so Jay could drop off his suit and work on a few work-related items.
-We looked online for a restaurant for dinner and found Chez Jenny just 2 blocks from our hotel.
-Despite the sort of French name, the restaurant seemed very German.
-Our appetizer was what I would describe as a "pizza au gratin". It was a very thin crust, no sauce, layered with potatoes, onions and cheese. And yes I liked it despite the onions. Jay really liked it with some dijon mustard on top.
-We both ordered chicken this time. We are afraid of "beef". The chicken was really strange. Weird cuts of meat, and I don't do skin. It was served in a really small casserole-type dish in a sauce with onions. On the side was a small bowl of really thick spaghetti noodles that didn't taste like spaghetti. Overall, when I picked through it, it was okay.
-Dessert was amazing. I ordered raspberry sorbet, and Jay had creme brulee. He wouldn't share.
