New restaurant

Saturday night we were able to have a date night. Through our typical blind luck, our sage femme (midwife) lives less than a kilometer from us and she has 3 daughters who are of babysitter age.  Best aspect of this is that we do not have to drive to pick up or take home a babysitter.

We finally were able to go to a local restaurant that we had heard good things about.  Normally a 15 minute walk we drove due to Julia not being able to walk far.  The restaurant is located in a strip mall(an American concept?) that runs parallel to the main road entering Chatou across the Seine river bridge.

A small place, maybe 40 chairs, with an understated decor but excellent food at very good prices.  A 3 course meal is only 30 euros.  Julia had the pave with bernaise sauce and I had duck with pineapple.  Excellent, we will definitely return.  It is our new restaurant to take visitors.

It was a fun evening  Julia and I actually had a conversation that lasted for 20 minutes before we mentioned either Samuel or the twins.  That had not happened since August.
