Resto 38 L’Aubergeade, 11th Paris

Good food, poor choices. I have to say that eating tête de veau isn't something I'll do again in a hurry. The meaty bits were ok but the gluey bits were ... gluey.

Resto 37 Bon Vivant, Bloomsbury

Good French food does the trick when it's cold and fluey but mebbe they could go easy on the speakers.

Resto 29 Café Populaire, Rouen

High quality onglet on a sunny terrace. Good times.

Resto 28 Le Bistroquet Chez Cédric, Rouen

A testing day is rounded off at a good bistro with a world class view. I liked Le B, especially when the bill came in at a surprisingly moderate 60-odd euros. The ability of good food, wine and company to assuage middle class woes is something that I am very aware of and never take for granted.

Musset update!

A quick post with the file for 'A Door (Must Be Open or Shut)'

Resto 20 Au Cadrans du PLM, Paris

Professional waiter, cold beer and massive salad with big lumps of salty goat cheese au Cadran du PMU. Recommended.

Translating Musset

Part of the fun of staging a period piece is assembling (and drinking) the props! A short post on my new theatre production for the Crouch End Festival.
