Then, a little dessert. Chocolate eclair and 2 perfect raspberry tarts also from the bakery bursting with flavor. Yum!
For dinner, we went to Chez George (273 Boulevard Pereire, Paris). It has a classic feel - as one reviewer describes it " it's a perfectly preserved 1920s bistro". The service is stuffy in the way that makes it feel authentically French, the atmosphere is quiet yet convivial and comfortable. The food is as typical French as it comes, and absolutely delicious. It's nothing new, nothing innovative, and that's what makes it so good. They clearly respect the classic recipes and prepare them flawlessly. The food was flavorful and buttery, and that was all it needed to be. Solveig and I both ordered the lamb with white beans. The lamb was tender and with a deeply flavored sauce that only the French could prepare like this. The beans were soft and creamy, almost like a stew. Mark and Leah got both got steak frites which were quite good as well.
For dessert, mango with passionfruit sorbet and caramel.
What a special way to end our last night in Paris!
