Paris 2011 - at the food court

After visiting Louvre and checking out some stores at the mall, we had a late lunch at the food court inside the mall.



The food at the food court (Restaurant du Monde) was not our typical "mall food" at all. The selections and quality was great!

I was thinking about either Spanish or French food...




And I chose French! The restaurant was called Beaudevin.



Both John and I chose the meal options. I picked the grilled chicken with two vegetables (carrots and spinach) and a salad (cucumber). John picked the York ham with two vegetables (green beans and carrots) and a dessert (chocolate tart). We shared the cucumbers and the dessert. The food was yummy!






Oh my goodness. The meats were cooked very well and delicious, but the vegetables were super awesome! Seriously, French people have talents cooking their vegetables.

Yum!

Paris 2011 - Carrousel du Louvre

Carrousel de Louvre is the mall that is connected to Louvre. After Louvre we visited a few stores at the mall and got late lunch there (as recommended by Rick Steves' book!)












Cute stuff everywhere. I liked it.

Paris 2011 - Louvre

Of course we had to visit Louvre.

It was beautiful and massive! Its extensive collections were simply amazing. John and I made sure we saw what we wanted to see first, and then just casually browse through different areas. I think we could have spent a couple more days inside Louvre and we still wouldn't be able to see everything! Here are a few of the photos that I took:

























There are so many masterpieces to see from different artists and periods. Go visit Louvre everyone!
