Paris in Black and White

I love colour so didn't want to put any of my photos in black and white

(even though it looks more professional)

But I couldn't help it so here are a few

 We stopped for lunch in Montmarte and chose a quaint little restaurant

We didn't know this at the time but:

" 'Chez la Mere Catherine' In Montmartre's Place du Tertre  is one of the city's most historic eateries, founded in 1793. Chez la Mere Catherine was reputedly the first 'bistro' to open in Paris and is also the place where Danton wrote the famous words 'Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we may die' "

We had some very nice pasta (Italian food in France)
and a cheesy gratin ravioli dish

It was very tasty and the dark atmosphere was very cosy.

An amazing exhilarating experience for me as he is one of my favourite artists
