Joan,
That's a new one for us. Should we give Restaurant de la Tour a try? Please give the two Catherines our regards. So sorry we will miss you but we are enjoying the 82 degree weather here today and are meeting our French teacher at the beach for lunch. Happy travels!

Jim/Pat,
Yes, I think so..a nice mixture. We like the CC and CasseNoix, but also the quieter, more relaxed type places too, now and then. 100% French when I have been there....Casse Noix most of time, too..but since I have been telling people about it???
You will notice many places have closed and talk of some very large places maybe closing soon....like FNAC on Champs Elysees..some other places have opened..I know you will like 100 Les Taillevent and it is open 7 days, nights...I will send you the name of the Directeur for making your reservations! I did send you Florent's address, didn't I?
I know you like the warm weather...this makes you walk faster and is good excercise for you!!
a bientot....

Joan and for anyone else who might be interested...
Just in case you find yourself in the Marais in need of something sweet, I thought I'd let you know about L'Éclair de Génie which opened recently at 14 Rue Pavée just off Rue Rosier.
The eclairs are spectacular and I've put some pictures up on my blog. the salted caramel butter one was amazing. Maybe I need to go back to try the rose one today? Highly recommended.

We made reservations for Thursday March 14 at 7pm for Reed. We can't wait. We leave for Rome tomorrow with all the craziness that is going on with the Pope. It should be fun! Thank you so much for Catherine's e-mail and stop in and join us if you get the chance. I can't beleive it is already here!!!!!
