Monday in Paris

The highlight of the weekend, was eating at the Caves de Petrissans, on Avenue Thiel in the 17th.
They are open Mon-Fri, and have been since 1895. A business passed down from father to son. They are in the business of providing pleasure, and pleasure they do give.


Here is the window made up of bottles or parts of bottles ... pretty cool

Here is the interior, with Nikki taking a shot of the restaurant, the woman at left wondering what we were up to, while her lunch partner is enraptured by her and oblivious to the surroundings
 
A better view of the locals from our vantage point
 
A very nice Volnay from Boillot
 
Entree was a celeriac remoulade for Nikki, and slices of smoked duck breast on a bed of lentils for me
 
The menu ... and every dish was tempting
 
The dark and light chocolates with coffee
 
My muse and darling, beautiful, raison d'etre, Nikki
