Le Meurice

Went back to this 3 star Michelin near Tuileries for first time since 2006, when we ate here on our first night in Paris. Boy it was good then. Still excellent, though as with a lot of these fine dining superstars there was a lack of spontenaity that takes some of hte fun out of it.

Great wines, great food, though maybe a little much on the foam - when will this foam thing be over? - and we ended up skipping out on the final dessert course, as it was just too much time for a jet-lagged crew.

At the end of the day, for a massive price tag and a 3 star experience, I'd rather do something a little less formal, though for a splurge when in the mood for somethign formal, it's fantastic.
