The whole IES gang arrived in Paris on Sunday night--giddy, sleepy, and hungry! A private bus drove us to our designated hotels in the 14th sector of Paris, where we quickly dropped our luggage and met up in the lobby. Heather and John (IES leaders) gave the whole group a short tour of where the IES Paris building is and a general tour of the area. We split up after the tour in order to find a place to have a late dinner. Two of my friends and I found a small Crêperie called Crêperie du Manoir Breton (not sure if it is named after Breton the author or Breton the painter..or neither?)
Oh my sweet taste-buds! The crêpes were DELICIOUS! I had a buckwheat crêpe with chicken, cheese, potatoes, and herb cream sauce, while Morgan ordered a buckwheat crêpe with duck, chevre (goat cheese), and plum sauce. It was fantastic, and the Côtes du Rhône wine perfectly accented the flavors! Needless to say, my first meal in Paris was a great success.
