Mussels, fries @ Clichy's Tavern, Paris

THis is the first parisian restaurant that my dearie took me to when I arrived in Paris 2 years ago. Since the first time I tried their mussels, don't remember exactly in which sauce I took the first time, I fell in love in this Belgian dish.

We then became the regular customers in this restaurant as they offer a wide variety of foods,: Belgian, German, Italian, French etc....Never get bored with the menu and it is very valuable for the price.



THis time, it was my x-th time going there. Started off with a belgian beer: La Loubécoise, which is a maple sirop brewed beer. Good for my adventurous taste buds. I like its mild taste and a very fragrant smell.


I wanted to order a set a mussels in Roquefort cheese sauce, but as my dearie wanted the same thing, I took the one in curry sauce instead. But not spicy one la!



Of course, it will not be complete without the fries!



The meal was very good and satisfying. As I was a Tiramisu maniac, we went on having a piece of it as we were quite full already.

Important papers in France

Today is a day that I spent on 2 important papers.

Early morning, reluctant to wake up at 6.50am, I prepared to go to the Immigration Service for medical visit, a routine to do in order to get my work permit and resident card. It was done by around 10.30am, with the company of the agent who is in-charge of the application process. Honestly, without their help, I would have spent much longer time on this tedious and frustrating process. I am so grateful that my company provided this assistance to a lost foreign worker like me.

Without further delay, I went on to collect my second important paper: my Master degree in Health Physics. I am very delighted that I finally received a Master degree with European recognition, and with a good result, which is like a cherry on the cake. Que je suis contente!

Ca y est. Two extra documents in my files. As I know myself, it is not the end of the end, but the beginning of the next challenge.

What a greedy lass I am!
