While walking along Rue Saint-Dominique, we come across Square Samuel Rousseau and Basilique Sainte-Clotilde

After a short detour to get a closer shot of the church, we resume our walk along Rue Saint-Dominique
We walk toward the end of Rue de Bourgogne and cross Place du Palais Bourbon by the statue La Loi by Jean-Jacques Feuchère
Assemblée Nationale
From Assemblée Nationale, we walk along Rue de l'Université past Les Invalides
Esplanade des Invalides looking towards Pont Alexandre III

Back on Rue Saint-Dominique, we come across one of my favorite Ferraris - an F40
An F40 in the wild...in Paris!
We pass Église Paroisse Saint Pierre du Gros Cailou
Valerie notices Aux Merveilleux de Fred and wants to peek inside
This is the bakery responsible for the chocolate meringue cake we enjoyed the other night
The Eiffel Tower has been visible for most of this block. We are getting close to our destination...and we ARE hungry!
This looks like a nice neighborhood
We reach Les Cocottes...our lunch destination. Danielle recommended this cafe. Strange that we did not remember this being featured in an episode of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations.
Staub...Valerie says Peter will like this place
Their menu is on the wall, but they also provide one we can hold. They also have a version in English.
My date.
Entrée du jour...an amazing tasting clam stew. Rich, creamy, buttery.
Cocotte du jour...a lamb and vegetable stew. Delicious and hearty!
