I had forgotten about Le Divorse. Thanks for the reminder. I am taking my mother to Paris in September and while she is housesitting for me in April, I am leaving her a shelf full of Paris movies. Will have ot add that one.

Beatchick...So you ate at Le Grand Colbert? Maybe I should take mom there. Thanks!

Dejais, I think she'd love it - it's a gorgeous setting with the tiles on the floor & the mirrors, service is great, food is superb & not really expensive.

Beatchick...Tried to find a web site but can not find one. Any clues? Can you tell me price range? Would this be for a nice evening or just a casual dinner? Perhaps lunch? Going to have to get my DVD out and watch it again!

Dejais, I thought it might be on bestrestaurantsofparis.com but I don't see it on there. However, I've found my receipt:

Lillet aperitif - 5.50€
1/2 bottle Evian- 3.60€
Glass of Lalande Pomerol - 7.00€
Buffalo mozzarello & tomato appetizer - 11.50€
Demi Poulet Fermier (famous roast chicken) 17.50€
Double café - 4.50€
Poire William digestif - 8.80€

Total - 58.40€

Not a bad price for lunch!

Beatchick...Thanks for going to that trouble. I am copying it into my travel journal and will try and get there with Mom. And this time, there will definitely be a trip report!

We saw today "The return of the Pink Panther."

No one could replace Peter Sellers in the role nor his nemisis played by Kevin Kline.

But I went to get the Paris fix.

I agree cigalechanta. Paris looked great in the movie, as it always does, but I kept comparing Steve Martin to Peter Sellers throughout the movie. It's just not the same, even though I don't think Steve Martin did a bad job. (The accent sounded very forced). And Kevin Kline just didn't work as Dreyfuss, at all.

I didn't like that film at all except for the typical buggling that Sellers would do. Reno was wasted.
