Lost in Montparnasse

Well I was lost, Helene was only hungry.  And when she spied an oyster bar across the street, we had to stop. 

                                                      "le petit vivier d'eau de mer"
                                                     (the small pool of sea water)

I didn't make that up, it was written on several surfaces around the restaurant.



As we sat waiting for menus, Helene expressed surprise that we weren't seeing more iPads on the streets or in the cafés.  And then the menus came..............

 

I'm reasonably certain that the waiter was wishing for old-fashioned paper menus, because he kept having to come over and help us navigate the iPad menu.  But it sure was fun.

And the oysters, fish soup, and sole meuniere were sublime.
