ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Above, weekend brunch with Meg, Chloe, Mike, and our hosts, Hidden Kitchen's Braden and Laura. Hidden Kitchen has been getting an amazing amount of blog publicity in the last few months, and the good word of mouth has flooded the underground resto with reservations from fellow expats and anglophones visiting Paris. We've already heard from three separate sets of friends who have gone or will be going to dinner at Hidden Kitchen... you can make reservations here on their site.We were just glad to be escaping Paris' gray summer's end with bloody marys, breakfast burritos with hand-made tortillas, a variety of salsas, and the great company of new friends. And yes, that's a deck of cards with John Kerry's face photoshopped into every scene.
Unrelated -- looking back at where I've been for the last six years at this time: 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, and 2002. Around now in 2001, I was camera-less. (It had been stolen in Cabo that August; considering the following month's event, perhaps it was a good thing.)
