I totally disagree with the concept of a menu in French and English. Okay, I understand that not everyone who visits Paris speaks French. But if you're too lazy to look up the menu items, maybe you should have stayed at home. And did you ever notice, it's always French-ENGLISH? Are they saying the anglos are the only people in the world who don't speak another language? Are they correct?
I ate at a place like this once -- it was on r. Monge. It was the worst. I can't even imagine why I thought it might be minimally o.k. It was August, not much was open, we were desperate, but even so, what a mistake.
For a long time, we were just another typical Washington, DC family: two policy-oriented jobs, two kids, and two cars. Out of the blue, my husband got a new assignment; we ditched the old jobs and the cars (but kept the kids) and headed to Paris for what started out to be a three-year, and eventually became a four-year tour.

Definitely one for the tourists!
