Moroccan In Normandy

 Le Berbere has two locations - one in Deauville and one in Pont l'Eveque.  We went to the one in Pont l'Eveque for lunch during our trip.  They didn't let us share, so we had a lot of extra food.  It was good, though, albeit not as spicy as we had hoped.

Plugging Along

Just little bits of progress on the house.  

Winging It

A butterfly wing is coming along.  This will get put somewhat aside now, as I'm back from holiday.  Have to get it into the rotation at some point.

Lunch At The Zoo

 We went to the CERZA zoo just outside of Lisieux on a gorgeous Sunday.  We had lunch there, too, between loops.  It's a huuuuge zoo!  I had a glass of a middling rose and the daily special of lasagne.  The lasagne was okay, but could have used more spice.  Surprisingly, Andreas had a hamburger.

Working On The A

Yay, the A is showing up now!

Chinese Food In Trouville

 It's pretty hard to find non-seafood restaurants in Trouville/Deauville.  We did, however, find Le Phenix, a Chinese restaurant!  Since Chinese is hard to find in Chisinau, we decided to try it.  Chinese food in France is bland!  Andreas had egg rolls and I had egg drop soup as our starters.  The soup was good and the un-spicyness didn't show because egg drop soup isn't normally spicy.

 I also had tea as my drink.  It took a bit to steep, and Andreas took the picture before it was done.  Below is a photo of the entrance.  They do the Chinese dragon motif throughout, and the wait staff, at least, is ethnically Chinese.

 The main course revealed its blandness.  We had a beef in oyster sauce and a chicken with cashew one.  We each at both, and it was just okay.  I think I'll make Chinese at home to get it spicy.  As dessert, Andreas got canned pineapple slices and I got orange confit.  The confit was definitely weird.  Oh, did I mention that it still cost us twenty euros each?

Three Fingers

Yay, the third leaf is coming along and so is the bamboo.  I made some progress on this while in France.  Now that I'm home, I hope to make more.
