Life Retroed: On se Revoit sur [la terrace]

27 Apr

When i was down in Nimes, i also had the gastronomical pleasure of enjoying the best lunch of my entire time in France. We were dropped off, as a group, in the center of the town/city (im not sure wat the people there call it but i would say it was a town after a spring football workout at best) and told to ravage the place for its gastronomical exploits. As our motley crew, consisting of carnivores and me, the picky chicken guy, girls who wanted to sit outside, and boys who wanted to eat fast, made the rounds we were having a very hard time finding someplace where everyone wanted to eat. Then, tout a coup, i looked up in the sky, not a bird nor a place, but yes, a terrace, with an interesting looking cafe on top. What i was actually looking at was the museum cafe at the Musée Carré D’Art, the modern art museum of Nimes. As i convinced everyone to go up to the cafe and eat, I passed through the museum and was privy to a pretty nice Wolf Vostell exhibit. The lunch, after a 30 min wait, was everything we could have asked for. Relatively cheap prices (relative to Paris) delicious food, housemade foie gras (prepared two ways), entrecote and some delicious chicken skewers with potatoes o gratin and Bernaise sauce (which i ate). I would have pictures of the food but we all we so hungry that when it came we ate it too fast for any pictures to be taken. With this being said, if ur ever in Nimes, its a sure bet that u should hit up the terrance at the Musée Carré cause its poppin. Off top.

How excited is she? Super Duper excited
