Paris

We arrived in Paris by TGV from Marseille and took a taxi to our Hotel du College de France in the 5th, where our room was waiting for us.

We then walked to la rue de Rivoli to repair my husband's watch wrist. There were crowds of people shopping and it was difficult to walk.

Bandol (continued)

On arrival we had our lunch at Le Nautic right bellow our apartment.

A dinner at Bistro Chez Pauline for the best fish soup, Assiette du pecheur, and chevre lasagne for our son.

My husband then followed with thyme duck in delicious sauce.

Assiette du pecheur:

Heavenly Tarte a l'abricot.

Then favorite ice creams.

Our lunch at Du Thym a l'Ail, marinated herring.

Poulet basquaise.

Steak and fries

My mussels mariniere

Delightful tarte aux pommes.

Ice cream

and my cafe gourmand with yogurt in honey (greek style), crumble raspberries mousse, and a delicious peach ice cream with chantilly.

I purchased seafood from a kiosk at the daily market.

Back to Bistro de Pauline, one of the best in Bandol. Duck with potatoes.

They made pasta for our son and he was delighted and wanted to come back for another meal.

Assiette du pecheur served by the chef himself, this was rather flattering.

A delectable tarte au citron.

Our last meal in Bandon at Brasserie Toche with seafood, a grilled bar and an omelet for our son.
