I think someone is following us
The traffic wasnt as bad as we thought it might be, even though the Chanel show was in Parc Saint-Clooud, so we ducked into Jean Baptiste for a quick bite and a coffee. Who follows us in but Anna Wintour herself. Her assistant was particularly haughty and apparently did not appreciate Roger blocking her way as he was protecting us with his umbrella. We smiled in our most benign fashion.
Then back into the melee for L'Orangerie.
Menu Degustation
les saveurs de Flora . . . a study in pink. We started with rose of course and actually thought we could make it through seven courses despite potential jet lagging. Sure enough we had to skip one -- who cut the cheese? Stuffed like the guinea fowl that was our 5th course, we rollled out at 11 p.m. A short 3 hour meal. Dont miss this incredible retaurant at 36, Avenue George V!
If it's Monday . . .
For a while, I thought I would never even GET to Paris, sincemy flight out of Newark was delayed for over 6 hours with a mechanical but finally at 2:00 in the afternoon on Monday I walked into Lavoisier (not the sort of hotel a haute couture client would stay in) to find Cathy there and waiting. We hit the streets immediately to get a bite.
Place du La Madeleine our destination and a sidewalk table at Le Colibri. Chin Chin!
