Hello friends! It has been a while...so busy with pre move activities! We had a nice outing to the Old Town Alexandria today, the beautiful historic town on the Potomac...
We had lunch at Le Refuge, a traditional and super tasty restaurant on a leafy street, and could not resist having the squid in tomato garlic (and glace de viande) sauce as we always do...
Jamison's scallops with Pernod were supple, buttery perfection!
My saffron-infused Bouillabaisse (here with rouille-spread toast...yum) was very nice:
In the bento, keeping the romantic French feeling going with artisan macarons in raspberry and pistachio (dessert first, non?), scallop-mango-grapefruit salad in butter lettuce, homegrown shiso and more mango used as an edible baran. Have a great evening--see you soon!
