Le garçon et le chef

I caught these two waiting in the doorway at L'Isola, off rue Mouffetard.  That day, I was a bit early for dinner and caught them waiting longingly for customers.  Sadly, when I returned to Paris this last time,  I found that they had closed.

Le Petit Chien

It's no secret that Parisians adore their dogs, and they are welcome almost everywhere, including restaurants. Ce chien mignon was perched on a chair beside her doting owner ( her usual spot) while we dined outside at L'Isola, off rue Mouffetard last summer.

the tough head off to their favorite Sicilian restuarant, l'Isola for dinner!! Once I got back to my neighborhood yesterday and got my wits about me, I strolled down to the Mouffetard area and had veau citron at my favorite place. I even topped it off with a fabulous dessert of panna cotta with a divine raspberry sauce and some expresso. Things could be worse!

Just noticed I had a Paris Rouge theme going today without even trying!
