Last night I dined in an authentic French bistro around the corner from Kate's place. And you might say I had real French cuisine - lamb chops, sauteed potatoes, and green salad. Hmmm. Snails were on the menu of course but I wasn't quite ready to indulge. Kate lives in the Marais district, which is apparently Paris's answer to Oxford Street in Sydney. If you didn't know that before coming here, the she-man waiter who served us (resplendent in his glittery lipstick) should tip you off.
Tonight it's our job to make dinner for Kate and her NZ flatmate, Kirsten. Not sure what delights we are going to bake, but we've got the whole day to think about it. And there is no shortage of inspiration around here - and patisseries so close by that maybe we should just start with dessert and work back.
