The Brussel’s Bar located on the main street in Fontainbleau, 47 Rue Grande, is a perfect place for an afternoon snack and a beer.
The prices are seasonable, the food is good and it is the perfect way to take a moment to enjoy another day in France.
As I walked the 65 miles or so around town I could feel my energy getting lower.
I needed to eat and when in Paris you do as the Parisians do so I decided I needed wine with my lunch. The Captains Croc provided me with a delicious plate of salmon pasta in cream sauce and some wine to help keep me going. The staff was friendly, the food was great and I’d certainly go back.
If you are in the area then I recommend you walk over, just across the river from Notre Dame, and eat lunch here. You won’t be disappointed by the quality food, reasonable prices or friendly service. Merci Captains Croc.
$150. is not out of the question to spend at the sushi bar when including drinks.
Well here I spent $150. and had a party.
It served 2 couples.
We had various salads, sushi, sake, plum wine, aloe water, miso soup and some good times.
This breakfast is easy and delicious. It may not cure a hangover, but it tastes way better than liver. Take some of last nights leftover salmon and reheat it in a pan. Take some broccoli chunks and lightly steam them. Asparagus and zucchini are easy to heat quickly also.
Next, whip a couple eggs in a bowl with a touch of milk, water works too, and scramble in a separate pan. Cut some fresh oranges and arrange.
Serve with an English muffin, coffee or another michelada.
Note: A side of last nights rice warmed up can accompany this dish nicely also.
Fish tacos are easy and delicious. Crack open your favorite Mexican beer. Put the other 17 somewhere cold. At the cabin I like to stick them right into the snow outside the front door.
Next grate some cheese, chop onions, lettuce, tomato, avocado and a jalapeno and put the chopped piles in separate small bowls. Pan fry some red snapper, halibut, cod or shrimp in light oil.
Heat up some tortillas so they are warm and soft, but be mindful not to dry them out. I like them warm but not too steamy or sweaty.
Once all the ingredients are prepared and laid out, create a conga line along the taco prep area and enjoy creating your colorful meal. Add salsa and a squeeze of lime per taste if so desired. Be sure to say ‘gracias’ to your host and chef.
Fiesta y salud!
