In Paris for the tennis we went to a restaurant called "Sur le Fil" in Montparnasse.
Helpfully the menu in the window had a translation in English, these days I only read the English to identify amusing translation but on this occasion my French wasn't up to "Cannette de Barbary" so I read on to the English version underneath.
Not much more helpful as the translation was "A can of Barbarisms".
Thanks Bing or Google Translate or whoever was responsible for that.
Actually it's Barbary Duck - and it and the restaurant were fantastic.
This blog is about our experience living in France as we complete the renovation of our property, battle with French bureaucracy and enjoy living in this stunning environment. La Basse Cour is in southern Morbihan in the Brittany area of the west of France and we have a 1960 house, a 1798 stone barn and 6000 m2 of land.
