France

In France, we got to get to visit Paris and Versailles, both cities are magnificent. Loved their glorious architecture and excellent food.

Paris, a luxurious city and a shopping haven for all shopping addicts. Here, we found Gallery Lafayette where all high class brands are available, Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Dior, Balenciaga, Gucci, Fendi... name it they have it. Ok, enough about shopping.... let's now talk about their food.

French cuisine has always been beautiful, it doesn't just look good but taste excellent too. They always cook with much passion and artistry. Having to taste real French food was a wonderful experience.


Must go and visit Chateau de Versailles, where Kings and Queens have lived.
Gates and wall carvings were all gold plated.....


The famous Eiffel Tower in Paris
Eiffel Tower was once considered as one of the worst and ugliest structure in the world... but look how famous it got and is now considered as one of the greatest architecture.



Had dinner at Le Grand Cafe Capucines on our first night


seafood galore! this is their small.....



I was happy with my Foie Gras with sweet pastry and raspberry glaze. Melted in my mouth.


Escargot tasted like nothing =( it was bland, it wasn't salty or sweet or sour.. it just didn't have any taste. Was a little disappointed 'cause it really looked good.
Our Kuhol sa Gata tastes better. =)


He had Roasted Leg of Lamb....



On our 2nd night we had dinner at a restaurant that I can't remember the name.. it was Chez... something as youcan see on the plate....


French onion soup... it was salty..literally


Baked salmon topped with buerre blanc.. perfect with each other


Rib eye with fries....rib eye was perfectly done...
