Two Sisters Go to Paris: Gi'Raf

Dominique's boyfriend, Julien, has a friend who owns a restaurant `] near the Moulin Rouge called Gi'Raf. They told us to go there for dinner and we chose it for our final meal. On the Metro we got on t he wrong connection and ended up taking a beautiful city tour on an elevated train. We were thrilled with our 'mistake'.Since dinner is eaten late in Paris, it didn't matter, and we had no reservations anyway. We saw a lot of the city including a close-up of the Eiffel Tower.

Once at Gi'Raf we were greeted and Beth was recognized by the waiter, Kevin, who was more than accommodating. Kevin was taking care of the whole place that evening. We ordered veal. We got a beautifully-prepared calf's liver in a fabulous sauce with a generous portion of freshly mashed potatoes. Kevin said he had been advised r to give us champagne on the house, which he did. We topped off the meal with chocolate mousse, complete with chocolate chunks and a meringue garnish. We were more than full. We took the Metro back to our flat, this time without making any mistakes, packed up and got ready to leave for Provence in the morning.
