Arriving To Paris

Wednesday, June 5, 2013


Arrived to Paris around 6pm on Tuesday, took a train from the airport to Les Halles. Not a very pleasant ride...took ages as the train stopped ever so often. Planned to continued from there by metro, but changed mind and took a taxi to the hotel.
I don't know Paris well, more likely not at all. Had made a booking for a hotel in 15th district (arrondissement)which actually is pretty far away...
 Anyway, the hotel's nice and new, although the building is old and has a real Parisian feeling.
Our tiny room is on the 6th floor. Yeah, it is small, but actually very functional and the shower is just perfect.
Hotel Eden
110 rue Blomet

Went to a bistro near by - can't remember the name - for a light supper. Ordered sardines with mint taboule to start with - delicious, great flavours - and salmon tartar for main course - that was a mistake - it was delicious but absolutely too huge portion, just couldn't finish it. Felt really sad to leave my plate only half eaten. Chablis was a perfect choice with this meal.
