Déjeuner á la Bourgogne


La Bourgogne, on rue Mouffetard is a great little place for lunch. That's my cassoulet of jambon et fromage at the bottom. May I just say I ate every bite. The sauce was creamy and cheesy and well, you know! And the top photo just says Paris café to me!

A special "Merci" to our dear Parisian amie Anne who chose this delightful place for the lunch we shared that day!

  4. That was a FINE lunch...but it looks like it's served on a cafeteria tray - please tell me that's a porcelain platter? And that was the day that I talked you into the scarf, n'est-ce pas?

  6. Mary,
    Well it does. Maybe they b rought in that because the bowl was trés chaud! I was too busy guzzling the vin to notice! HA And I don't recall you having to TALK me into the scaraf. I think I put it on and you mumbled something like, "You don't need it but I think you should get it anyway"!:)

    Daryl,
    I said, "Oh I'll never eat all this", and then plowed right through it!

  14. Fabulous photos, especially the yummy cassoulet. I will definitely put La Bourgogne on my list to visit -- the interior is perfect Paris bistro and the food (and wine) look divine!
