Wal-mart sells things I need at a resonable price. The other option is mail order or drive for hours to get what I need.
So Wal-mart gets the nod for now.
I went to the Kalispell Wal-Mart today, intending to buy some .45 ACP ammo. The ammo cases were pretty much devoid of all handgun ammunition. No .45 ACP at all.
They had literally tons of rifle ammunition, tho. (General big game hunting season starts in Montana in about 2 weeks).
I asked the lone salesclerk about the lack of pistol ammo, she said "it's on order". Funny, that's what they told me a month ago.
When youre wounded and left on Afghanistans plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier.
Rudyard Kipling
Still the cheapest place to get dry goods and such. If I could afford to be discriminating ,I would. I still buy guns at a local shop though, instead.
"In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock." Thomas Jefferson
Nemo Me Impune Lacesset
Goodness, this made me do some thinking.
I use to take a very simplistic approach to the issue of businesses that don't allow CCW on their premises or are anti-gun. I have found the practicality of this simplistic approch may not be feasible.
For example, if we didn't do business with anybody that was anti-gun or anti-CCW on their property, do we do business with Ford, GM, Toyota, hospitals, banks, etc.?
The Tennessee Firearms Association has a list of banned properties in Tennessee. The list is so long, there's no way you could remember them all. If you expand this to national chains outside TN, the list gets even longer.
We could get to a point that there's so few acceptable businesses that don't support us gun guys, and do support, especially gun control, but also other objectionable efforts, that we simply couldn't function. We might not be able to buy a car, etc.
I don't like it; I don't do business with K-Mart period because of their actions when 9-11 occurred. But I can still buy ammo at my Walmarts and shotguns and rifles for that matter. If we now stop doing business with Walmart and the gun business becomes even less profitable to them, what do you think will happen? OTOH, what if we all made a conscious effort to buy ammo from Walmarts that sell it, and they make a favorable profit from ammo sales, what do you think they'd do?
Walmart is undergoing some changes and I believe I read that Sam Waltons daughter or grand daughter is trying to change the company from a good capitalist venture to another Twentieth Century Motor Company.
I haven't been to Walmart in a long time, nor do I intend to go in the future. I buy my guns and ammo from gun and sporting stores. Gander Mountain sells cheap ammo too. My money is not going to be used to advance the socialist left cause.
Oh, and I know that some liberals are gun enthusiasts too. Congratulations. The rest of your party's platform is neo-communism and I'll do what I can to defeat it.
I shoot .40 Glocks. I'm not willing to reload with the possibility of KBs with that round in Glocks. So, I buy about 1000 rounds ($200) of WWB .40 from Wal Mart each month. If I were to go to the shop about a block away, my ammo bill would be about $325 each month. Sorry, I'm not willing to pay that much more for the same stuff.
Wal Mart has said they are taking the guns out of stores where there aren't sold too often. For that reason, my next gun purchase will be a long gun at Wal Mart, even though I am not really a long gun shooter at this point in my life. But, they have Mini 14's in the rack, and I'm willing to own one, so I will.
If we support the businesses that are in the process of making a decision about guns, we have a better chance of them making the right decision. By being quick to turn our backs on companies, we are making it easier for them to join the anti's.

I like Wally World. We are retired and travel fulltime in our RV. I cannot count the number of Wally Worlds we have shopped at from coast to coast. I carry, and have so for years and years. If I'm not naked......I'm armed. Never had a problem with Wally World. [I do have problems with NY State, and their Communist Government] but not with Wally World.

God Bless the USA
Honestly I have a love/hate attitude about WalMart. There's things I like about them, there's things I don't like about them. It seems the later column is getting longer than the former. For now I will continue to shop there when I need ammo and such, but it appears in the near future I may avoid them. Here, there are way too many other stores that have the same item for almost as cheap as WalMart. When prices are close, I will get it somewhere else....
Coimhéad fearg fhear na foighde; Beware the anger of a patient man.
I used to shop at Wal Mart for just about everything, and now I shop at Wal Mart for two items: ammo and oil. And if they didn't have those two items for such low prices I would never enter the store. Why? Customer service. Or in their case, lack of customer service. I hate rewarding poor customer service with my business. Be it a store, restaurant, or service provider, I avoid them like the plague if they cannot provide me with basic customer service.
I have worked a lot of retail jobs, and we were always drilled to acknowledge the customer and help them out in any way possible. No task was more important than meeting the needs of the customer. The typical Wal Mart employee in my area will walk right by you without an acknowledgement or even eye contact and is not freindly at all. Ask a question? How dare you! They are typically very short and curt and almost put off by the fact that you have interrupted them from whatever mundane task they have been assigned by their manager to ask where a product is located. Gone are the days of the "greeters", the kindly older man or lady handing out stickers to kids, getting you a cart, etc. No, now it is usually a disgruntal cashier assigned to the task, leaning against the wall, not even looking in your direction when you walk in, let alone greeting you.
I predict in the very near future I will stop shopping at Wal Mart for oil because returning the old stuff is too much of a pain in the a$$ (another rant). So it will be down to ammo. And if they continue on their downward spiral, I will put my convictions ahead of my wallet and buy my ammo somewhere else, even if it means buying less or less frequent trips to the range.

We are leaving in 2 days! happy daaance
I had a thread before this and merci to all who helped us! If you followed that thread you will remember that our friend living in the Marais (Rue Charlemagne) is hosting us for 2 wks and as a thank you, we wanted to take him out to dinner. Instead, he suggested I cook for him. He does not cook one bit and I can see why he would prefer a home cooked meal. I think this is also a fun way to explore the boulangerie, fromagerie, butcher, markets, wine store.
I am not familiar with the markets in Paris and I'm hoping you guys could help me out. I do not want it to be complicated nor does it have to be extravagant, but I would like the dinner to be special. I was thinking simple but delicious dishes that constitute a few fresh seasonal ingredients would be perfect. There is a burner but I have to double check if he has an oven. To make it extra special do you think I should make it a multi-course meal? 4-5 courses with champagne, wine and maybe a port too? I can buy already made dessert or assemble the ingredients at home. I need some ideas please! He does not cook so I will assume all he has at home is butter, olive oil, salt and pepper, you know the basic stuff. I am confident I can pull this off with your help! I am also not wed to the multi-course idea if you have something better -- no dietary restrictions.
We received so many great suggestions from this board and I will happily report back for those interested to know how it all turned out as my big Merci beau coup!! Maybe with some pictures too!
Paris Markets for a 5 Course Meal

I would definitely buy the dessert. Once you see the selection in the pastry shops you won't stop salivating!
Four courses, if that includes the cheese course.

Go to the shops in the neighbourhood. Nobody in Paris crosses the city to shop at a different market unless there is an item so unusual or special that it can be found nowhere else.

If on the eastern edge of the Marais, the market on Bvd. Richard Lenoir might be the place to shop.
Report Abuse
Rue Charlemagne is more what I think they market as Village St Paul than what I would think of as the Marais. The nearest street market for food would be Bvd Richard Lenoir, but that's only on Thursday and Sunday mornings. Otherwise, you might as well take the metro or bus 86 to Ledru-Rollin for the Marché Aligre (and the covered Marché Beauvau).

Foie gras--get the proper wine to serve with it. Baguette and a fruit "compote"
Salade - diced roasted beets on a bed of mache with lightly sugared walnuts and a walnut vinaigrette lightly dressed
Plat--many markets have a gorgeous paella "to go". Certainly a roast chicken--don't forget the onions and potatoes in the bottom of the roaster.
You don't have to do a "street market"--you could do a "market street" such as rue Cler or Buci or many others.

Is it possible your Parisian friend is hoping for a meal that is not French? Just a thought. I don't know what country you are from but perhaps cooking your "best" dinner or set of recipes would be a fun treat. If that means packing a few spices from home then don't forget to do it.

There is a large Monoprix .2 mile from you:
Monoprix Saint Paul
71 Rue Saint-Antoine, 75004 Paris, France
The grocery section there is downstairs there if my memory serves. Rue Saint-Antoine is the continuation of rue de Rivoli and the stretch near you has tons of specialty stores for cheese and other stuff.
Especially check out Comtess du Barry for interesting gastronomic stuff:
Au Desirs de Manon has great pastries:
I agree that I would buy dessert-they are just so well done in France, it is hard to match. I don't know how good a cook you are, but if your guest wants a home cooked meal then I would probably not serve a ready made paella or roast chicken unless you can't really cook yourself.
I live here in France half time and half time in the US. I like to use the ingredients that are better here in France when I am here-for example endive is super cheap and really great but expensive in the US. Also, butters and yogurts are generally better in France to my taste and the French make delicious ready made rolled out pastry dough that is really good-one that is for sweet pies, one for quiches and one that is more like puff pastry. So I end using things like that a lot here. And I agree with keroac about going to the shops in the neighborhood-and where you are staying is super well located, so it shouldn't be an issue at all to find both the basics and some special treats! I hope you have a great time-you have a very generous friend to house you for 2 weeks

Head to one of the market streets, such as rue Montorgueil, and you'll find every kind of shop (butcher, pastry, bakery, fruit, veggies, chocolate, wine, cheese etc.) and everything you need all on one street.

Does he eat out EVERY (main) meal? How long is he there for--or is he permanent?

IF a friend was visiting me from Paris, I would not want them to cook me a New Mexican/Southwest meal; I would want a Parisian meal, for sure!
Cook what you know best. And I am sure he will be grateful and happy for a home cooked meal.

I am sorry to say that there are a lot of Parisians who never cook. They buy microwave dishes, order pizza or sushi (sushi being the #1 delivery item in Paris) or eat junk food. The idea that all of the French eat well is a total illusion.

If he doesn't cook, will he have anything to cook with? (Pots and pans, knives, spoon etc?)
Also, I wouldn't count on olive oil, and possibly not even salt and pepper.
Report Abuse
You ought to know your friend and what he expects. You don't seem to know how to cook very well yourself, it's too much to expect to learn how to cook and plan a menu at this point. You should cook something you know how to do well already, that's all. I bet he thinks you know how to cook and when he said that, you'd already have ideas of what you could make.
Report Abuse
Do you think that, perhaps, he meant more than 1 meal? You are staying there for 2 weeks.
Report Abuse
If you are staying with him for two weeks I would cook for him more than one night. I personally love to eat lunch out and go shopping for local wines, cheeses, cheeses, fresh veggies, etc for a late night dinner after exploring. This guy would probably love anything you fix, he will love what you put before him. The big trick is if he has an oven or much to cook with. We don't seem to get an oven often but I can do wonders with a two burner. rue Montorgueil was my favorite.
Report Abuse
Merci beaucoup for all your input, this is so helpful!
I think a lot of my concerns boiled down to my unfamiliarity with the area/stores and not knowing where to buy the ingredients so thank you for helping me out with that! OK so after reading your comments and thinking things through, instead of doing a 5 course meal, I'll do 3 main dishes on 3 different nights and a couple of easy snack dishes on other days that I know he loves. I didn't want to experiment with something I've never made plus he's bringing people over to eat with us so it has to be perfect! You're right, I don't consider myself an excellent cook but there are a few things I make supremely well only because I've made them a hundred times. No stress, more fun!
So the menu will consist of shrimp, chicken and beef. I'll serve them with bread and rice. There will be rose, white and red wine to choose from and of course champagne to kick it off. It would be nice to have a starter but each dish is heavy by itself so I'm unsure what to serve as a starter. Nuts? Dessert I will buy per your suggestion.
Dish 1 Coconut shrimp curry (grandma's recipe)
Dish 2 Filipino chicken adobo (grandma's recipe)
Dish 3 Beef bourguignon (Ina Garten recipe)
Snack 1 Stuffed mushrooms (Giada De Laurentiis recipe)
Snack 2 Roasted stuffed eggplant (my recipe!)
Do you know if I can bring rice on the plane? Sorry if this is an ignorant question. Not sure if I can get this particular rice in Paris and it's the kind I have at home I know he really likes. I can always improvise and get basmati or something but want to bring this kind. http://www.amazon.com/Botan-Calrose-Rice-15-Pound/dp/B0081ZQR8K
Do you also know where I can get canned coconut milk for the curry? I'm doing carry-on so can't bring this. There is a very small portable oven but all this I can make on the burner except for the eggplant (oven). There are plates, utensils, pots, pans. Whatever little stuff he doesn't have I'll just improvise when I get there.
Thank you so much! I'm starting to pack yay!

You can buy rice, don'twaste precious room and weight in your carry on.Yes, coconut milk is available.

Agree with DebitNM not to bring rice and coconut milk will not be a problem. I would bring spices you will use in your dishes (especially exotic ones). Just what you will need, in a baggie.
Why not buy some good cheese or pate as a starter? Bakeries sell tasty savory nibbles as well as sweet ones.
Report Abuse
Rue Charlemagne is very close to rue Saint Antoine, where there are several excellent food shops and a large Monoprix.
My first choice would be the Bastille market on Thurs or Sun mornings - if you can get there before noon.
But here are very good places to shop on rue Saint Antoine, starting near Metro Saint Paul and ending around Bastille:
Becquerel - butcher, pates, charcuterie, rotisserie chickens, will cook a roast (or whatever) for you with a day's notice. You can also order a chicken that will be hot when you want to pick it up.
Laurent Dubois - cheese, butter, cream, yogurt
Pascal Beillevaire - more cheese, butter, cream, yogurt
Au Sanglier - "traiteur" - pates, prepared dishes, charcuterie
Dalloyeau - fancy cakes and pastries, chocolates
Lenotre - more fancy cakes and pastries, chocolates
There are also 3 "primeurs" - fancy greengrocers selling expensive fruits and veg. Better quality than grocery stores, if you're looking for something special, but if not, buy this kind of thing at Monoprix.
There are at least 3 different wine shops in this stretch, and Monoprix has an extensive wine section, too.
A couple of boulangeries that sell decent baguettes - Paul, Manon
I agree with many people - chances are very good that the kitchen situation will be dismal. The sink will probably be very tiny and it's doubtful that you'll have much counter space to work on, too - so I would think twice about buying salad stuff or other things that you'd need to wash, chop, etc.
It would be far more practical - and just as delicious - if you would shop for quality food that someone else prepared, and assembled a nicely thought-out menu. Splurge on dessert and wine, and everyone will be "over the moon".

Thank you so much that was amazing!
Precious room is right! Wow packing a carry-on is a skill! I'm getting better each time but wow it's really a skill! Every inch is accounted for and you have to strategize the colors for mixing and matching and layering! I bought shoes for the trip too, really comfy ones. I'm bringing stilettos. I know, so unpractical but I gotta. Do the savvy carry-on-ers bring stilettos too? Probably not. Maybe the savvy check-in-ers do. There should be a whole thread for packing tips. If you know one please share for future reference!
OK so not going to bring rice. He specifically mentioned those 3 dishes cuz they're his fav that I make so I kind of have to go with that now. Apparently the guests are looking forward to trying them too. He must've talked it up so now the pressure's on!!
yeah, foie gras for starters sounds great! Different cheeses too. For variety in flavor what would you recommend for cheeses that would go together if I were to get 3 each dinner. I like sharp stinky cheeses, triple cream ones also. I'd love to try a whole bunch just not too knowledgeable with the names. I mean I'd have to ask for it at the fromagerie in French and I wouldn't even know where to begin I'm sure there will be a ton. Do they let you taste test? For reference I like gouda, gruyere, manchego, camembert, brie but want to try new ones! Any recommendations or favs so I can go there with my list?
I'll pass out on the plane looks like this will be an all nighter!

I would bring spices you will use in your dishes (especially exotic ones).
Ummm, the array of spices/herbs available in shops in Paris is incredible--and fun to buy to bring home. DO get some saffron for a pittance--or smoked Spanish paprika. Not that you can't get these in the US.
Let the lady behind the cheese counter choose your cheeses!! Why compete with an expert. You can also ask for a taste.
I know there are other market streets, but rue Cler DOES have a beautiful array of all you would need to choose from.
Personally, I think the boeuf bourgignon is going to require a lot of time and tending to in a small unused kitchen--and you may not have the best pots to use. HOWEVER, you COULD always buy yourself a great Le Creuset pot to bring home!!
Report Abuse
Oh, and don't forget your foie gras can be fresh OR a beautiful pate in a jar or tin. And can be brought home!!
Report Abuse
It's hard to explain, but you will understand when you get there. You will find enough ready prepared food stuff (pates, foie, terrines, charcuterie, and other fresh savoury delectables) as well as cheeses for your starters and desserts to last you ten fold. The cheese sections of large grocery stores are as big as a small convenience store. Some even have a small special room within the cheese section...Ask for recommendations, or be adventurous and buy something that catches your eye. There is no right or wrong with cheese, lol.
Same with wine.
I'm also really glad you've decided on dishes that you know to prepare well and that your host likes, rather than asking the board for suggestions. Less stress for everyone. Calrose rice is common here in Ontario in asian stores and increasingly large supermarkets. He may know of such a store where you might find it. Otherwise don't sweat it; just use regular long grained white rice (not basmati) which should make a decent substitute.
Fresh fruit macerated in liqueur with whipped cream (Chantilly) also makes a fine ending to a rich tasting meal, served with some thin slivers of crunchy, buttery cookies. Simple and easy to do.

Both stinky and creamy cheese are a must for a cheese selection, but a hard cheese (sharp or not) is also a must. A cheese shop will definitely help you make the proper selection if you are unsure of what is best. Most of them will add at least one "unusual" cheese (rolled in manure or buried in a field -- I'm kidding -- but yes, try to get at least one totally non-standard cheese because it intrigues everybody and they will all want to try it.

THAT is so interesting. I have several LCs and some other ECI pots of different sizes--and I had THAT lid that was sold as a "stand alone" roasting pan. It didn't have a lid (of its own) and now I may know why. It was a wonderful roasting pan--now given to DSIL with our move.
I was half way kidding about shopping for LC in Paris, but there ARE other ECI French made pots that are good. I wandered into the hardware store on rue Cler and it was a treasure trove of cookware!! I managed to resist but it is always fun to look.

Let me remind you of something you know--a dish like boeuf bourgignon (and maybe your others) improve if made the day before. You might be able to do the boeuf overnight, at low temp in the oven.

Gretchen - I agree you can find lots of spices in Paris (exotic and not so exotic!) My tip was more of a money-saving one (not having to buy a jar of spice you only need a tablespoon of) but I didn't think of the bringing home as souvenir option.

Thanks for the tips guys and the well wishes sartoric.
I'm afraid there are no measurements involved with her recipe. She eyeballs it and I've learned to do the same through the years but the ingredients are:
Soy sauce
Vinegar (I usually use distilled)
A whole head of garlic
Vegetable oil
Chicken -- you can use pork, beef or a combination of pork and chicken which is very good too. I usually use organic chicken, mostly breasts and maybe 2 chicken thighs or drumsticks because the bones make it tastier and more flavorful. I am not a big fan of the legs so I just use it to flavor.
Cut up chicken breasts (4 large pieces) into 2×2 size (a little bigger than bite size -- maybe 4 bites each piece)
season with salt and pepper (not too much salt cuz soy sauce has a lot of sodium!)
Add soy sauce and vinegar (ratio 2:1) and all the minced garlic. Massage it onto the chicken with your hands -- give it some luuuv
Trick is to make sure you have enough sauce on the bottom of the bowl. If after you massage there is no sauce left on bottom of bowl, add more soy and vinegar using same ratio. You want your adobo to have sauce when you cook it because it's good to drizzle some on rice.
Overnight or let sit a few hours in the fridge to let it all soak in -- make sure to cover it so your fridge items don't soak smell.
On high heat, add some vegetable oil on pot (enough to sear chicken/meat). Be patient make sure it is very hot or all the oil will go in the chicken and that's gross, you want it seared not soaked in oil. Do not crowd the chicken (Remember Julia Child ...do not crowd the mushrooms!!). Usually 20-25 seconds each side -- do not leave too long or chicken will get hard. Put on plate and do the same for rest of the chicken.
When all chicken are seared, turn to low heat, wait till pot is not too hot anymore, return chicken to pot including all the left over sauce/marinade (dont forget to include juice/oil on plate from seared chicken) and cook for 45 mins to 1 hour on very low heat. Let sit for 10 mins.
Eat with perfectly cooked rice! I use Botan rice.
It's also good the next day. Most recipes don't overnight or sear it -- they simply put everything in the pot and cook low-medium heat. Sometimes you can also throw it all in a pot and put it in the oven at 300 degrees for 1.30 hrs if you're lazy. I have done this, still comes out great, but the longer method is just hard to beat. The searing part is finicky because if you don't do it right the chicken can turn hard very very quickly so practice makes perfect.
Tip: Shut all rooms in house before cooking because it is very "strong" smelling. I usually cook this dish wearing a turbie towel on my hair again cuz of the strong aroma that sticks. Not a bad smell just strong garlicky soy smell. I've served this at parties and always a hit. Hope you try it and would love to know how it turned out...Enjoy!

lillychimp, your recipe for Adobo is similar to the way my Filipino friends and my cousin's Filipino wife make it, except that they sautee sliced onions before adding the seared chicken/pork/beef back into the pot.

They serve with steamed rice (white or brown), or pancit.

Last night we had serious issues with the washer/dryer. It has a distinct smell that doesn't smell good and it's coming from the machine, not the detergent. My friend doesn't think so but to make a long story short, is there a place near our area (rue Charlemagne in the 4th arrond) where I can do a fluff and fold (not dry clean)? I saw a laundromat where I can do it myself but I'd prefer to just drop it off and have them do it while we're out? I can research this of course when we get back but if someone knows right off the bat, please help! I need to do laundry soon and deciphering the language with my bad French is going to take me some time.
Merci beaucoup!

Buy some bleach. Run a wash cycle with hot water and a lot of bleach. Maybe some baking soda too. Then run another cycle with nothing but hot water. Leave the door open as it is likely mold or mildew. Most french washers are front loaders and if you keep the door fully shut after using machine; mold/mildew is a problem.

Five years ago I used a full service laundry on Rue de Birague, on the other side of St Antoine, it's the street leading up to Place de Vosges. As you head up, it's on the left side of the street, closer to St. Antoine.
I have no idea if it's still there, and there might be places closer, but it's a place to start.
Love garlic and soy-will be making your recipe!
I love your enthusiasm most!

Closer to you, on rue Saint Antoine, there's a "5 a Sec" full-service laundry - much cheaper than the one on rue de Birague. It's between rue Saint Paul and Metro Saint Paul.
Report Abuse
PS - about the washer...
Since our French machines are set to re-use water left in the drum from the previous load, it's not advisable to use bleach in the machine at any time. It could have a disastrous effect on subsequent loads...
A better idea is to toss in a full liter of plain white vinegar and run the machine on its longest, hottest cycle. Leave the door open afterwards, and always dry the inside rubber gasket after each load is finished. It's probable that the soap bin could use a good cleaning, too - mold builds up behind it. Remove it, wash and dry and re-insert it.

The washing machine saga late last night turned into a comedy show. When you include bottles of wine into the mix it is not too bad figuring this out. Javellisant sil vous plait. The lady at Monoprix was very helpful. Show text on phone. Ahhh! ...zhuvaleesaun!
Yeah, that!
We put bleach last night (before reading the vinegar technique), sniff, still smelly. Ran it 2 more times and watched funny/nasty DIY cleaning washing machine filter on YouTube. Still smells like death.
This morning before breakfast, we picked up vinegar and baking soda and ran it again. Holy Moses, still smelly. It's Sunday and the places are closed to drop it off. We'll check if self service we saw the other day is open after site seeing (we saw the other day they're open till 10pm on weekdays) -- the one on Rue de Rivoli. I love this area. Already met a few friendly gays. Why is their area always so fabulous. Will go in later if it's open and sniff a few washers to see if it has the same morgue smell.
You guys are right about the desserts here!! Found our morning pastry shop and so far my favorite is the chocolat pistache croissant at Manon. Yum!

It really sounds like something might have died inside the filter... The only thing to do is to remove that and clean both it and the housing it lives in with Eau de Javel - not recommended unless you have a strong stomach, long brush-type implements, a gas mask - and about 4 bottles of wine (for you, of course)!

Bonjour madame et monsieur!
The weather here is gorgeous today. I'm having a nice glass of rose in the balcony after hours of site seeing. The balcony over-looks rooftops and other terraces with bright potted flowers. I'm seeing terra cotta pipes sticking out of high walls in between buildings with little metal umbrellas on top of them. Not all have the umbrellas though. I'm assumung these are chimneys?
Merci beaucoup for all the suggestions and tips for getting our clothes clean. OK in truth I exaggerated a little about the machine smelling like death but it really does have a distinct odor we could not get past -- not B.O. per se, but a smell I've whiffed from strangers walking the streets, could be mildew.
My friend's contract pays for dry cleaning as part of his living expenses while working here so the machine is barely used which I think is part of the problem -- it never dried and was always shut. The rubber gasket inside the drum had standing water when I lifted it and I think that's part of the problem, a lot of unwanted gunk has accumulated. Anyway he called this morning (thanks Gretchen) and the soonest someone can come to "examine" the machine is on Friday. Too long to wait so we put our dirty clothes in plastic bags, shoved them in suitcases and hauled @** before anyone got to the laundromat. It cost 4 euros per washing cycle (45 mins hot cycle, less for cold cycle) and 50 cents for every 6 minute drying cycle (usually took 2 cycles to completely dry per load) and Voila!
Merci sugarmaple. I'm happy to hear you're trying the recipe too especially because tonight is adobo party night -- wish me luck! All else fails, we have amazing foie gras, desserts et lots of vin.
Oh yay the church bell just rang again!!
Till then...signing of with fresh smelling clean clothes and lots of wonderful Parisian produce.

Oops I made a mistake! It is 4 euros 'regardless' of the washing cycle, although it did have 4 options. I chose blanc for all loads cuz we wanted them hot. It was the laundromat on Rivoli near 5 a sec, very convenient and efficient and met a few interesting tourists and locals too.

It could be as others first suggested that the standing water is the culprit in a front loader--we have to leave our door open. So you might try that for a day or so to see if it helps. Hope you get it settled one way or the other.
Report Abuse
ElisabethS - yes, a good portion of the previous load's rinse water remains in the tub. It's called "grey water", and is part of the ecologically responsible way the machines are built.
When you start the next load, a little water streams through the detergent bin, but it's not much. When the drum starts turning, the old rinse water gets added to the detergent solution. An average 7 kg load only uses about 1 liter of water - and only requires about 1/2 teaspoon of detergent. This is one reason why the cycles take much longer than US models, which use far more water and energy. It's also the reason why many people living in Paris do a lot of hand laundry...
If you put too much soap in the bin - even by just a little bit - it's nearly impossible to get all the suds out of the machine and out of your clothes. Even if you take the machine apart and bleed out all the water...The same goes for bleach or fabric dye.
The way to keep the machine sweet-smelling is to use a cloth moistened with white vinegar to wipe the inside part of the rubber gasket, then wipe it completely dry after you've finished using the machine (bleach will destroy the gasket). Dry the door, leave it open all the way. Clean and leave the detergent bin open, too. About once a month, it's a good idea to toss one liter of white vinegar in the drum and run the machine on the hottest, longest setting (no soap). Commercial cleansers are basically the same thing as vinegar, but a lot more expensive, especially in France.
Sorry this isn't more interesting, but it really does work.

Hmmm. For the benefit of anyone else who might want to try grannies adobo recipe, I think Lilychimp may have got the soy/vinegar ratio around the wrong way. Please correct me if I'm wrong here LC.
Duly marinated and cooked, last night we attempted to eat it. Unfortunately, it was way too salty (and I didn't add any salt). I then checked my kitchen bookshelf and google, most recipes have a ratio of : soy 1, vinegar 2.
Fortunately we have two dogs who are not fussy eaters.
I will definitely try this again, as the sauce with rice was really quite yummy once you get over the sodium hit.
Good to here you're loving Paris !

Thanks for the info manouche - I wasn't aware the machines reused grey water.
While certainly efficient for water usage I can't see how European washers use less energy - smaller loads taking much longer. (I wash in cold water so my perspective is influenced by that). I'm curious about the total energy equation.
Report Abuse
Elizabeth S - I don't understand it either - it has something to do with the number of revolutions per minute of the drum (normally very slow), the small amount of water, centrifugal force, maybe some magic...a lot of the time, my machine looks like it's doing nothing - even when it is. And a lot of the time, my laundry doesn't look as clean as I'd like it to - even though it smells good and "is" clean.
When you buy a machine, it's rated according to some energy-efficient formula. IME, the less the machines appear to be working, the higher the rating. Electricity and water are so expensive here that they are really serious about this stuff.

Oh no sartoric, so sad to hear this!
I was thinking about you and how it might've turned out. Initially I thought maybe it was because you had put too much soy (1 cup), but in truth sometimes I put more than that depending on the amount of chicken and also because I like it saucy. The ration of 2:1 (soy to vinegar) is definitely correct. Since there are no exact measurements, it is never precise but I always put more soy than vinegar, some recipes put equal amounts, some less, there are simply too many different ways to make it. I was pondering about this all night and I think I know what happens when I cook it -- at least the recipe I gave you. As mentioned, I almost always use chicken breasts and a few limbs for the bones for more flavoring. What happens (with my recipe at least) is as it slow cooks, the chicken releases some water and dilutes the sauce. I use organic chicken which I believe contains less water than regular chicken -- higher quality chicken, less water (?) -- but nonetheless, it still releases some water diluting the mixture. Not sure if beef/pork do this as much? I should have thought of that and feel bad this was not a success, le sigh but I'm glad to hear you weren't completely discouraged to try it again because it really is a tasty dish. If you use this combo of meat on the second go, try adding some water to dilute to taste if it's too salty or obviously use less soy. Either way, thank you for sharing the outcome and yes, I'm still loving Paris! We are also thinking of doing a day trip to Versailles and possibly Giverny.
Merci for the wealth of knowledge regarding the washers here! Still no more issues with clean clothes but someone is scheduled to come today to examine the machine.

Remember that there are different types of Soy - Light, Dark (big difference in taste and colour between those two), Mushroom, Tamari, etc.. I use all of them so happen to be aware about them and their different tastes and gluten content.
Perhaps a light soy would work better, or a lesser quantity of dark soy ? I love using the mushroom soy but haven't yet experimented with it (for quantity) for Adobo.
Report Abuse
"Light" soy sauce is even saltier than regular soy sauce (not "dark"), as opposed to the green label "lite" soy sauce.

Thanks for your feedback, and no worries, it wasn't a total disaster and I will try again.
I have four different soys in the pantry. For this recipe I used Kikkomen which is labelled all purpose and a product of Singapore. I prefer thigh meat usually, and do buy organic, I had two with bone, two boneless. Plus, of course, pork ribs and some beef.
Next time, and I'm aiming for this week, I'll adjust the ratios to fit with the saltiness of Kikkomen soy, and leave out the beef. I'd leave out the pork ribs as well, but will have to negotiate that with the multi meat carnivore DH.
Lilychimp, so excellent to hear of your continuing enjoyment of Paris (notwithstanding dodgy washers), but then, I bet you can find joy in most places.
Thanks for posting.

"... than regular soy sauce (not "dark"),..."
FWIW, some of the soy sauces available here in Canada are labled as 'Light' and 'Dark', and a few chefs I've done work with also refer to them as such, as do I.

The cooking channel, lol! Hey, that's not so bad!
OK this trip has turned into an unexpected extended adventure. We were supposed to leave on the 25th but with host/friend having some business in London (meaning we get his apt to ourselves), school done for both of us, work not starting till end of Oct and some extra cash in the bank, we went for it and added a few more days after seeing a flight back to NYC for $495 one way @ www.jetradar.com.
We're still in Paris but thinking of going somewhere else for about 3-4 days before going home. Nothing too complicated though. Any suggestions?? Is there a direct train to Brugges? How about go south to the riviera? Dijon? Reims? Fly to Barcelona? Train to London?? What's an easy 3-4 day trip from Paris? We can certainly just stay put but trying to explore some more and also give our friend a break when he comes back from a rigorous work week.
Merci beaucoup!
One more thing, we want to visit an interesting passage, can someone suggest the best one to check out tomorrow (Monday)? Merci, Merci guys!
I have yet to buy my Paris souvenir!

Take the TGV to Provence. Take it back to CDG for your flight home.
You could go to Normandy. Loire. All easy.
Report Abuse
Passage des Panoramas or Galerie Vivienne are both nice - Mondays (and Sundays) are difficult, though, since many of the shops and restaurants are closed. I would pick another day, if possible.
Report Abuse
There are a few direct trains to Bruges, but you can't get any good fares on such short notice.
How about a day in Lille?
Report Abuse
Reims is great for a 1 day visit but I wouldn't spend 3 days there.
Taking Eurostar to London for 3 days is also a great idea. I did it two years ago from Paris. Found a good deal for trainfare + 4 night hotel accommodation on the Voyages SNCF website. The hotel in South Kensington was basic with a tiny room (very typical for London budget hotels) but was clean, quite adequate and very central - perfect for getting around and being in the heart of things. The package cost between EUR 350 and 400.
I took the early morning train back to Paris from London and was at Gare du Nord by 9.30am and from there got to CDG on the RER before 11.00am, in good time for my flight home.
Check here. You might also find other destination options within France. http://en.voyages-sncf.com/en

Merci beaucoup for all the suggestions. This board is full of great ideas and so fast.
We discussed last night and I think we want to stay in France and explore the country a bit more -- here's what we're thinking:
Go south by train (how's the scenery) or fly to Nice early Thurs return Sunday. EasyJet RT flights are 209 euros. This is steep but whatevs we're already here and too excited not to go now. Train looks to be 6 hrs? How about we train there then fly back? This part takes the most time for me to plan, please help! We can leave either Wed or Thurs but need to return by Sun. I might just book the flight but kind of excited to take the train too, you know? Is the train scenery worth it?
We want to visit a perfumerie and create a personal scent, how fun is that!! There's one in Eze. Anyone been there and enjoyed it?
Friend suggests renting a car if we want to explore where the train doesn't go. We like this idea so we can zip around all day but do we even want to go where the train doesn't go?? Does it go to Eze? I hope parking is not difficult?
Most importantly -- somehow always revolves around food lol -- we'd like to splurge on dinner even for 1 nt, sweeping views of the Mediterranean! Sunset drinks and stay through dinner -- hopefully weather is nice. We're celebrating last few days of our trip and want to go big, any suggestions?
Budget hotel, also need suggestions sil vous plait. Around $150/nt. We'll be out so just need it to sleep.
Thank you so much. We're going to figure this out albeit last minute, so so so appreciate all the help! I'll be planning more tonight after site seeing.
OK I'm getting off the phone to "watch the world go by" -- seems to be the common theme here that it's become our funny mantra, "look at that tourist on her phone not watching the world go by!" lol
Au revoir for now!

3 hours to Avignon for Provence. More interesting than Nice. Rent a car. Getting to and from an airport is not easy/timeless.
Report Abuse
Thanks Gretchen!
So we ended up taking the train south to Nice and rented a car. I didn't think Nice was that spectacular but I loved the other areas around it. The train ride from Paris to Nice was so cool, glad we did that instead of fly there, planned on sleeping the whole way cuz we left so early but I didn't want to miss anything so I just kept snacking to stay awake!! lol I loved it so much next time I do that route again I would definitely take the train no question. We splurged on the upper deck face to face single table against the large window and they had sockets for our gadgets, a cute lamp, it was near our suitcases so got to keep an eye out for them, there's a rather skinny railing compartment on top that won't fit your carry on but will hold your small shenanigans like the bag of snacks we bought! It was just so easy, no airport hassle or security. Outside the window you see the countryside, some small towns, rolling hills, endless fields, water streams, then we would go under the dark tunnels then back out in the greenery and my fav moment was seeing a single wheelbarrow in the middle of nothing, just acres of green land all around it, ahhhh so amazing I love France!!! Then towards the last 30 mins of the journey, you see the coast with the little boats and huge yachts and the blue Mediterranean glistening right next to you and that's when you know -- oh baby baby!! you have arrived!!! lol such a fantastic variation in scenery! I'm a big fan of that train route and definitely want to explore other areas when I return by train. Try to splurge for 1st class tix on the upper deck by the window. Bring some drinks, food, your sunnies and a blanket and you're good to go! Oh! And the seats recline! There's also a cart of snacks that go by in case you run out of munchies!

Just for future reference, Marseille is a much more beautiful and atmospheric city than Nice. And the trip is only 3 hours from Paris.

Thanks kerouac! I'll keep that in mind along with Gretchen's Avignon. I'll definitely be returning to visit other areas in Provence.

That sounds wonderful lilychimp. Does the train follow the Mediterranean for a good stretch? I'll have to look into taking the train from Paris next time I'm there and want to go South. What did you do? Did you make it to Eze?
Report Abuse
Yes, we made it to Eze! Such a cute town! Also to the perfumerie, Fragonard. We stayed in Villefranche-sur-Mer, rented a car and drove to different areas including Monaco. Our friend, same host in Paris, is friends with a guy who came to one of the Paris dinners I made whose parents owns a vacation place up in the windy hills of VF and they let us stay there last minute. It was unbelievable and incredibly generous. The place was small but had panoramic views of Villa Leopolda, the Mediterranean, Beaulieu-sur-Mer and St Jean Cap Ferrat. No exagg, they were the best views I've seen in my life and we're still in disbelief they let us stay there. We have to get them a Thank You gift and need to do it soon! Any ideas??
I'm going to post a trip report for you guys but please go easy on me...as you can tell, I'm not a writer!

The train ride along the Mediterranean was not that long maybe 30-40 mins? I looked at my GPS a few times and the coast ride started below San Rafael all the way to the Nice stop.

Richard Hamilton actually got good news when he found out he had torn his plantar fascia. Had the injury been plantar fasciitis, Hamilton could have missed significant time. With a tear, the injury often heals very quickly. Such should be the case with Hamilton.
According to NBA.com, Hamilton is expected to miss two weeks with the injury. Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said Hamilton will be out a couple weeks because of the tear, but it's not beyond reason that he returns within one week.
Hamilton has been a key component to the Chicago Bulls' offense this season with Derrick Rose still recovering from knee surgery. With him sidelined, the Bulls will have to find additional offense elsewhere. It's a tall order for a team that is already thin. Injuries have besieged the Bulls this season, but they have managed to stay alive despite all the obstacles. Now, they will have one more to deal with - at least for the next two weeks.
Hamilton is in his 14th NBA season. He has averaged 17.4 points per game in his career. So far this season, Hamilton is the second leading scorer behind Luol Deng. He is averaging 13.9 points per game and 2.3 assists per game.
