An American (burger) in Paris
This isn't very interesting, but I might as well write it now instead of tomorrow morning (I have a meeting at the BNP, my French bank, tomorrow morning bright and early). We all met up at an American restaurant Alix knows (Schwartz), near Trocadéro (where there's the best view of the Eiffel Tower). They have ENORMOUS hamburgers. I got mine with caramelized onions. Do we do that in the US? I wouldn't know, since I never eat burgers...anyway, it was huge. Halfway through, I gave up eating it like an American and started eating it like a French person, aka with a fork and knife. Then, since I decided the bread was a bit redundant when you aren't eating it with your hands, I just ate the meat, cheese, and onions. I'm a very bad American. We even told the waiter. And, the best part: in one dinner, I got to speak French, English, and Italian! Fun times!!
