A café, a bistro, a brasserie, or restaurant that could be anywhere in the world.  
This café is meant to represent some of the eateries we experienced 
on our trip to Paris in the fall of 2012.  Eating is definitely an experience in Paris. 
One of our favorite meals was in a restaurant across from the Trocadéro.  
From the tiles on the Place du Trocadéro the Eiffel Tower can be seen 
on the other side of the Seine River.  In this painting the symbols below 
the Eiffel Tower represent the tiles on the Place du Trocadéro.
The menu includes only a few of "les mets français" that we tasted. 
Here you find one meal that only the brave need try, an evening treat, 
two French staples that can be found anywhere and finally Madame's favorite dessert.  Note that they are not listed in the above order.  Bon appetit!
