Birthday fun Pt.1

First of all, before I forget, we think this is one of the best food combinations we've ever come across. It's eggplant, some sort of cheese, and red and yellow bellpeppers. We eat this quite a bit. It's absolutely wonderful, very healthy and really cheap. I am hoping delicious, cheap frozen veggie entrees like this catch on in the US! There is a ratatouille that you can find here too that's awesome!

I wanted to start celebrating a night early(since it was our last weekend in Paris) so we found some yummies at different shops around town and put everything together. We had our main courses, drinks and dessert!! Everything was awesome! As it always in Paris! Seriously, I don't recall having anything I disliked. 

 J had some sauteed noodles, honey chicken and some of my vegetarian rice.

 I forgot to mention the yummy drink and raspberry tart!

I had vegetarian Vietnamese rice and some veggie dumplings :) I really wanted to ask for the recipe of the rice. It didn't have any sauce or spices. Somehow the inherent flavors of the vegetables were used to create a symphony of smell and taste! Quite excellent! I won't be eating greasy fried rice again in the states, that's for sure. lol My strawberry tart was great!


The next day we decided to try for the dinosaur museum once more! This is our view down one of the streets we take quite a bit, which is quite picturesque. We both tried to take pictures and by the time we remembered, the weather and lighting weren't in our favor. We still wanted to take a picture to remember it nonetheless.

Later on, the weather was in our favor. This is an alley off of our street!

The dinosaur museum was open!

We ate nearby at a cafe that seemed promising and did not disappoint! We each had a croque. J had a croque monsieur and I had a croque madame, or the other way around. I don't remember. Mine did have ham, so I gave it to J. I decided when I get back home I will be making these sandwiches for breakfast, lunch or dinner. They are so yummy! They were so good we forgot to take pics. So, here we are instead!

I do believe this picture sums our dinner up quite well! :)


And this concludes part 1! Part 2 coming shortly!
