France Trip (for work!!!)

only managed to have a very very short stopover at Paris... less than a day xia.. so only visited some iconic places... will definitely go back to go up to all these places...

this is one nice place for mussels along Champ Elysees... quite worth for a big pot.. it was a set meal that comes with a free flow of fries.. the mussels are fresh and delicious.. the coke bottle is made of glass... will recommend this place if anyone is gg paris.. i will go dig out the namecard i have and post de name of the restaurant here...

the hotel is reasonably priced with free wireless internet wor.. was like abt 60 euros per night.. considered cheap le ba.. with heater and everything as well.. one thing i learned is that the hotel has no air-conditioned.. (ok i sua ku) but it was really chilly at night even with no air-conditioned...

surrounding of the hotels.. the hotel is among a row of restaurants.. like shophouses kind of look... the food there are so-so wor...

top photo is just outside facing the hotel.. it is actually a carpark..

bottom photos are near the hotel..

one of the pple who went rented a car... and coz we reached early before the meeting (we reached abt noon, and de meeting was next day), hence he drove ard.. and these are some pic where we had a mini stopover..

as the place i went was somewhere near the coastal, so after like 20-30 mins car ride... we reached some seaside... with seagulls... quiet quiet beach with almost no pple... clear sky, clear sea.. beautiful...

heard that brest has many lighthouse.. and this one seems to be a famous one but no longer in used liao le..

looks deserted... but still got quite a number of pple come visiting..

walked quite a distance with a big patch of land with a horse and a donkey... haha.. so weird hor.. out of nowhere only one donkey and a horse... beside this big patch is yet another big patch of vegetation..

this was my dinner after the 2nd day meeting.. top was my appetiser.. salmon, prawn and scallop; bottom was the main course, scallops on skewer.. the scallops are big, fresh and juicy.. yummy.. hahaa..

ok i din order 3 desserts... mine was the creme brulee.. the bottom right.. it was famous french desserts, made of custurd base and caremel harden top.,. very nice... and it is very common to see it in french menu..

ok this is de starters for the last day of dinner.. the top left was a raw plate with various shell like.. (not i order de) the oysters are so fresh that still can see them move... the small shell... i dunno wat does it called.. but it was nice to eat.. yes it is raw... probably still alive.. but it was nice... hahaha... very fresh...

the bottom right was wat i ordered... is some kind of fish soup that comes with bread and cheese.. eh i think is cheese.. dun rmb le.. quite a big bowl... heard that some find it too fishy.. but i feel it was ok.. and there is its own after taste.. nice.. but forget the name of it le.. haha..

main course...

ok finally home sweet home after all the busy 3 days meeting, where 1st 2 days ended at 8pm.. sigh.. anyway took A380 for this trip.. but i dun have de opportunity to go to the upper deck.. sad...

actually i bought some food to distribute from carrefour and CDG airport.. but nv took photos.. only took this macaroons that i bought at the airport... nice leh.. haha..
