Now look forward to reading Le Figaro on Wednesdays along with the IHT and today is Wednesday.<\/p>\n
We worked in the morning, then trekked out to near the northwestern part of\u00a0P\u00e9riph\u00e9rique<\/em>, the ring road that encircles Paris, to the highly-touted, Hier et Aujourd’hui, 145 rue Saussure, in the 17th arr. for lunch. And it was a trek. I thought it was worth it, Sandy didn’t. But the couple who run\u00a0this small but packed, exposed brick resto were, again,\u00a0tr\u00e9s sympatique\u00a0<\/em>espcially as we were the only Anglos in the place. I couldn’t decide which dessert to have so the chef’s wife, who ran the dining room, brought me both (something we certainly didn’t need).<\/p>\n Then, except for a short, 4 stop\u00a0Metro ride, we walked from the 17th to Concorde. (See photos.)<\/p>\n Saw a terrific play, “A voir absolument!” (to the exent we understood it) at Th\u00e9\u00e2tre des Maturins in the 9th, near the Op\u00e9ra where we seemed to be most of the day.<\/p>\n Had a cr\u00eape on the way home, as the play started at 9, and no places serves much of anything else after 11.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
