Image Description:
| I am now on my own each morning for breakfast. I walked down to the corner to this brasserie and asked for the English menu. Not too much choice in breakfast items in Paris--I ordered a ham and cheese omelette (adequate), croissant (freshly made and delicious), orange juice (freshly squeezed), and coffee. Price: 12 Euros plus 19.5% VAT tax. During my stay in Paris, I ordered different coffees--the cafe au lait had too much milk in it for me; cafe American seems to have been espresso already diluted with water or served with hot water for me to dilute it; and cafe alongjay (not the way it is spelt but how it is pronounced) which seemed to be very similar to cafe American. You could ask for either hot or cold milk for your coffee--it was very good with hot milk, and no matter how the coffee came, it was marvelous strong coffee. |
