今日は、16区に見たいお店があったので、ホテルから歩いたのですが、今日は良いお天気になるはずが途中から雨、しかも結構な降りになってしまい、夫と２人で小さな折り畳み傘ではびしょびしょ。辺りには沢山レストランがあるようだったので適当に入ろうと思っていたのですが、月曜日のランチはお休みが多くて困ることに。お休みを調べるのをうっかりしていました。雨の中、長く歩きたくなかったので、結局適当に入ることに。

I had a shop I wanted to look at in the 16th Arrondisement and we decided to walk there as the weather was supposed to be good. However, annoyingly it started to rain rather heavily and with a tiny umbrella between my husband and I we were getting soaked. We were going to just choose a lunch place there as there are many restaurants around but I totally forgot to check the closing days and we found out that many of them close on Sunday and Monday mornings. In the end we just went in a place that was convenient.

 

「Le Scossa」というお店に入りました。

We went in a cafe “Le Scossa”.

 

最初に出てくるパン。

Bread basket.

夫は、ブラッタチーズ、トマト、バジル。

My husband had Burrata cheese, wih tomatoes and basil.

わたしは、野菜のポケボール。中身は、キヌアの上に色々なお野菜。インゲン、空豆、きゅうり、赤キャベツの酢漬け、キャベツの塩もみ風のもの、ビーツ、ブロッコリー、レタス、ピーナッツ。ドレッシングは、胡麻油が入って中華風に感じました。ビーガンの方がよく食べている風のもの。まぁまぁですけど、少しで飽きてしまい、後はパンでお腹を膨らせました。

I had a vegetable Poke bowl. On a bed of quinoa there were many vegetables – green beans, fava beans, cucumber, pickled red cabbage, salted cabbage, beets, broccoli, lettuce and peanuts. The dressing tasted Chinese sort of flavour with sesame oil. It was OK but I got tired of it quite quickly and left probably about 3/4, it was a huge amount to start with and not so interesting. I filled myself up with the bread. At least bread is good in Paris!
