Paris, France - Au Pied du Cochon

This was a visit to the birth place of French Onion Soup. Eating it is a must do for me and inspires me to perfect my own version. 

Shout out to the warmth and kindness of the French: a staff person brought me a chair so that I could sit while waiting. No reservations, I know better!!

The meal started with cassis and a pork spread on bread. I will think of the word later. Then the French Onion Soup and a Cobb Salad. Cute little sugar meringue pigs decorated the delivery of the bill - l'addition.  

Soon the table area filled up. A man and woman from Hong Kong sat at the next table and we had a conversation about what is happening and the concept of "One China".  I found it inspiring to have this type of discussion between citizens while the leaders of the countries are making big decisions.
