During our first full day in Paris, we had lunch in a great bistro near the tower. Eric, who loves to try new things, quickly scanned our menu (English edition was available.) He decided to try the escargot. We tried to order our meal in French. When Tony ordered Eric's lunch, the waiter looked at him, then at Eric, a little concerned. He asked, in English, "You want snails?" Tony simply pointed to Eric, smiled and nodded. Eric enjoyed them, of course! He wanted us all to try them, Emily, Tony and I did, although they came out of the shell a dark green color. We thought they tasted like clams.
Below is a photo of Julie doing her Lucile Ball impression. Has anyone seen that episode?
We had such a great time at the bistro, laughing, talking and eating snails (well, some of us.) This was one of my favorite memories of the trip.
