Paris Post: Photos from September 13
October 29, 2009
Trip to the Marais and the Jewish quarter, for the world famous falafel. This is our best ‘celebration’ meal. I think we were celebrating our apartment in Montreal being rented (which has since fallen through, anyone need to rent a lovely furnished apartment in Montreal?).
Because the restaurant is closed on Saturday, we visited on Sunday and the line-ups were long on the left for take out, and shorter on the right for eat in, which we did!
And it was time for an updated picture of me in front of this restaurant I’d love to own… Have you seen the UK episode of Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares that takes place in Paris? This is the restaurant, right down the street from the falafel place.
And here’s last year’s picture,
same restaurant was for sale then, too:
THEN I was filming the last video for the Fabulous French Desserts cooking class, soft peach cake:
I may have to buy some frozen peaches and make this right now, I’m starving!

So, How much are they asking for the resturant? And I see you where wearing similar fashions both years.

Vince, I don’t know what the restaurant is selling for — i could find out though
Any investors out there? And you’re right, it would seem that I own two v-neck long sleeved shirts. One black from Old Navy, one brown cashmere from France…

Love the pics; can almost imagine I’m there. Like the new hairdo; bangs are instant botox for the over 40. (Sorry to comment on your appearance,but you are asking for it, in a way.

irm, i’ve been growing out the worst haircut of my entire life (which happened back in March) and the bangs are a bad remainder of the bad-badness. Long bangs are fine, but I can show you how bad i look with real bangs and a shaggy hair cut, here:

Love the falafel at L’as Du Fallafel, no matter how it is spelled.
And I shortened my bangs yesterday. I can’t stand them poking me in the eye. My twinkly wrinkles are at the sides of my eyes, and I don’t want to cover them up. You, my dear, are too young for wrinkles.

linda, you’re right, i’m too young for wrinkles – especially if the light is right and you’re looking at me from far away and you squint at the same time
