Paris update

A couple of new discoveries during a few days off in Paris recently:


Les Bacchantes Restaurant - Bistrot à Vins
21, rue de Caumartin, Paris 9e
Tel 01.42.65.25.35
Lunch here was wonderful, and there was a great selection of wines by the glass. At noon it was absolutely packed, so I'd advise reserving or dropping in late.


La Pinacothèque Gallery
28, place de la Madeleine, Paris 8e
This is a relatively new private museum showing a tremendous collection of works without seeming to specialize in any particular period. Well worth dropping in.
