May 21–Too much to do…

Had to run a few errands today, oddly none involving food. Ok, wine and armagnac maybe, but that’s it. Got only one of them done.

Poured rain so despite all there is to do, and little time left here on this sojourn, we grabbed dinner at at Au Saint-Benoit, full of American tourists, one of whom, having seen an Asian  server, asked loudly if the cuisine was “Oriental-flavoured.” I actually meant for us to go to Le Petit St. Benoit, a bistro down the street but was clearly disorentied at that precise moment. Anyway, it was in the ‘hood but otherwise completely forgettable.
