Au Petit Sud Ouest

Well, it's 11:20 on Saturday night - our last night in Paris. We've just finished packing up as much as we can until tomorrow morning.

To celebrate the final night of our vacation we went to a fantastic restaurant: Au Petit Sud Ouest. They specialize in duck. Neither of us have ever eaten duck before so we didn't know what to expect. It was excellent. We shared fois gras for an appetizer with Andrew and Heather, and also shared a very nice bottle of red wine that was recommended by the restaurant owner. We've never tried fois gras before either...it turns out that we both quite like raw duck liver! For our Plat Principal (what we would call an Entree in Canada) Andrea had the preserved duck leg with ceps and thin sliced potatoes and I had the duck breast with thin sliced potatoes. Andrea commented that it was the best meal she has ever had.

After the meal Andrew and I headed back over to Celio (we seem to have a problem) to take a look at some more clothes and cufflinks. I got another shirt and Andrew got a nice pair of cufflinks.

Well it's bedtime now.

Bon Soir.
Au Revoir France.
