I am so jealous. I would love to be in Paris in March. I was there last March and we went to Louis Vins twice and it was excellent. Met the Chef who sat down at our table to chat which was hard since he spoke no english and our french was poor to say the least but we had a great time.

Thanks for topping this guys - I've been away for a few days - I will definitely see you there for drinks on the 24th 6pm at Boullion Racine (not sure about dinner though) - I will be there with my son too. (We can make him an honorary fodorite for the night).
So do we all wear a red carnation or something? lol. Okay so I'll be the old chook with the very handsome young man on her arm.

stormbird ~ great! There will be couple of other honorary Fodorites too. Funny comment about the red carnation. We are meeting Julie and her husband the night before and she said the same thing! I think we will be pretty obvious. And what's a chook? lady?

Hi Gomiki,
Well, a chook is another word we sometimes use for chicken. So it's like calling someone an old duck - old chook - not always derogatory and in my case just self deprecating!
really looking forward to meeting you all and will check in just before my departure to make sure nothing has changed.

Grandot, Gomiki and her party are meeting us Monday 23rd at 5 p.m. at Bar Lutetia at the Lutetia hotel right across from the Sevres Babylon metro stop at 45 Blvd Raspail--unless my early check up on the place shows some kind of a problem in which case I'll be e-mailing to let them all know of another location. I'm sure we'd all be delighted to have you join the party. If you want to, please send me your e-mail address at valdisvikmanis at comcast dot net, so I can include you in any e-mails to change the venue if necessary. I'd be at the GTG at the Bouillon Racine if we weren't leaving that morning. We fly out today and will be in Paris by tomorrow. Hurrah! Looking forward to meeting you.

Julie, you're so lucky. I look at the Eiffel webcam every day and think "what a beautiful day in Paris."
We will see you on the 21st at Le Derniere Goutte. I'll post that other thread soon. Everyone else, please join if you can.
Bon voyage to us all!
