Dining in Paris - overcoming language barriers
- e
- earthmomma Jan 17, 2012 05:46 AM
I will be visiting Paris for a few days with my boyfriend at the end of January. We are both vegetarians, which I realize might be tricky while we're there. We also unfortunately speak very limited french. We are both desperately trying to learn all the french we can before we get there, but I am still nervous about our ability to get by, especially in restaurants.
Maybe I'm ignorant, but I don't expect restaurants to have english translations under their menu items... at least not the good ones :) We are bringing a little french/english dictionary to help us out with reading the menu (yes, we'll be THOSE tourists - I'm sorry!), particularly because we have to be careful not to order meat. I am wondering if anyone can help us with some basic ordering terms & restaurant etiquette so that we can communicate as best we can.
What is the best way to let them know we're vegetarian? Are there any restaurant etiquette practices / best phrases to use in Paris that we might not be familiar with in Canada (where I'm coming from)? Also, are all tips included?
Any information you can share would be so appreciated, as well as some restaurant suggestions if you have some!
Thank you / Merci !
Restaurants always have menus posted in the windows (I think it's a law). When my menu French wasn't so good, I'd take my menu translator to the restaurant before they were open, and translate the menu on the window. This avoids the embarassment of furiously thumbing through a translator under the table while already seated. Oh, and a regular French/English dictionary probably won't have enough food items or cooking terms. You need a real menu translator.
I'm not very carnivorous but I love fish, and there's always fish for me to eat, but most of the places I go don't have any veg options (cafes will but I'm not sure many restaurants will). So, I'd do as much research as you can before you go on places that will. It's such a big city, there have to be resources for vegetarians! Good luck!
I just did a quick google search and saw that David Lebowitz, who's blog I love for all things Paris, has a whole section on veg dining. Looks like there are great tips there:
Je suis un vegetarien. Je ne mange pas la viande ou des poissons.
I think. Of course you can add eggs (oueff) and cheese (fromage) depending of whether you are ovo lacto or vegan. I made my 12 year old daughter, who for reasons that have nothing to do with her two meat loving parents, is an ovo lacto vegetarian, learn these phrases before her first trip to Paris. It was the second phrase she learned after, "Mon pere a tres soif. Une autre bouteille du vin, se vous plais!!!"
re: Mike C. Miller
Just a couple of minor corrections:
Je ne mange pas de viande ou de poisson.
s'il vous plait
re: Parigi
i have a feeling that somebody called "earthmomma" might be "végétarienne". :)
je mange PAS de viande et PAS de poulet et PAS de poisson. In spoken French, it's more common to omit the "ne" in a negative and just emphasize the "pas" with as many reiterations as possible.
re: Parnassien
I was correcting Mike. All my fault. With vegetarian-related posts, I try to read as fast as possible. :-)
I've been a coupla times and the people could not have been nicer, before going I studied what may appear on a menu and always started off (sorry too lazy to do the accents and diacritical marks) "Bon Jour (Soir) pardon moi je ne parle Francais, uhhh, je veudrais les...si'l vous plait"
a nun might slap me, but mine was not the attempt of the "ugly tourist"
yeah I know that is horrendous and it WAS corrected every time but everyone was great and good fun. just try to allow that you know what you are mangling isn't really French and you also aren't demanding they speak anything else. walk w/o fear.
re: hill food
In all parts of France, from Paris to the Languedoc, everyone has been lovely and really helpful when we have shown some ability/willingness to speak French - no matter how basic or flawed our attempts have been. To me (and I suspect, to them) the "ugly tourist" is someone who breezes into a place and starts speaking in English without any attempt at either: a) asking them if they speak English and/or b) apologising for their own lack of French.
As for the original poster, so long as you are able to say "hello" (very important to say this before asking for anything), explain that you are vegetarians and either ask if they speak English or tell them that you only speak a little French, then you will be fine. It helps to translate the menu before going in, but don't be embarrassed about using your dictionary/menu translator in the restaurant - it's much less embarrassing than ordering a plate full of kidneys by mistake!
re: Theresa
Thank you everyone for all your help I feel much better now after reading all this. We will make sure we have a translator to read menus out front & attempt at speaking every bit of french we can. My boyfriend does eat fish from time to time so he might have some more luck than me. In the end, I might end up eating so many baguettes & pastries that I won't have room for dinner anyway :)
Again, many thanks. My apologies for making you read a vegetarian-related post ;)
re: earthmomma
the challenge of being a vegetarian in France sounds daunting, but really isn't (vegan? now that's a different issue)
re: hill food
No, it's a challenge. It's pretty common to see a vegetarian dish garnished with lardons (bacon bits).
It would be difficult at best to be vegan in France.
re: Theresa
Ii learned my lesson years back when my husband and I walked into a charcuterie where an elderly woman manned the counter. I called out "Bonjour." She gave me a blank stare. My husband, two steps behind me, greeted her, "Bonjour, Madame." to which she answered, "Bonjour, Monsieur. Comment je puis vous aider?" Still ignoring me.
No "Madame", no service. 8-(
re: mangeur
classic. she wasn't really mean, just correct. still, HA! it's perfect.
OP: never mistake the formality for being rude, it's not.
re: hill food
Got it! We don't usually have that kind of formality here, so it's really good to know what is expected. Many thanks!
re: Theresa
Totally agree with this. At least attempt a phrase in French and they will typically respond in English. And to the OP, don't be afraid to just ask the waiter what something is if you hit a word you don't know. Being a waiter there isn't some $5 an hour job, it's a career, so you're far more likely to get professional, friendly service than here.
sorry to harp on, while the residents of Paris may not be the warmest and outgoing (or God forbid back-slapping) behind the reserve they really are good people. and if you make the effort, they will try to help (imagine my embarrassment in the Marais when a little 80 something woman dressed to the 9's in Givenchy or Chanel or something on 4 inch heels asked me directions! (everyone off the major blvds. are hopelessly lost and using a map - you won't be alone) "uhh uhhh uhhh") but that's how it goes, she was sweet and I asked her to be a stand-in for my recently deceased Grandmere. she politely declined. just talk and be nice. always say the polite words and you'll get a big hall pass.
re: hill food
I just returned from 2 weeks in France last night (1 week in the Languedoc and 1 week in Paris). My French is limited at best. All of my interactions with waiters and waitresses were positive, even when I did not understand something they made me feel comfortable.
I had dinner Saturday night at Le Petite Cheval de Menge in the 11th Arrd. and when I did not recognise the words for a certain type of baby chicken on the menu, the young waitress put her thumbs under her arms and flapper her arms like a chicken!!!
Me and my wife had a great laugh and it was a good icebreaker.
What I do before traveling to a different country is I make up flash cards (1 for subway/taxi, 1 for restaurants, 1 for hotel questions) and I keep them in my pocket at all times for quick translations. It is better than pulling out the Fodors Guide at the table!!
Have a great time, I did see a vegetarian restaurant on Rue Richer in the 10th.
re: Theresa
The opposite thing happened to me in Russia, in a St Petersburg Bar, nice weather, on the terrace, and I wanted a carrot juice. Why ? I don't freaking know, I've never ordered a carrot juice anywhere before, and I've never ordered one since... But I just felt like it.
So of course, after trying the word carrot in a few languages, trying to draw the shape of it in the air, I finally... did the Bugs Bunny gesture, my friend died laughing, the waitress looked at me like I was crazy (I guess they don't have Bugs Bunny in Russia...) and I ended up ordering a juice with mixed fruits which may or may not have contained carrots...
One of the best -- and one of the most exhaustive:
it's available in both .doc and .pdf format -- so you can drop it onto an iPhone, a Kindle, or any other similar device, so it's at least fairly discrete.
I keep it bookmarked and refer to it often -- mostly when I'm nowhere near a restaurant.
re: sunshine842
Thanks for the link, brought back some memories.. Addition, for sure i will not forget this word.. My most embarrassing moment ever in a restaurant, was a couple of years ago at Likafo. Very good dinner and my instinctive end of meal sentence abroad in english - the check please. I asked it from one of the elders there, and immidiatly got one of the most angry looks ever, a "barking" of angry sentences in french (i think..), all in all a not so small mayham started, all resto looking at me and staff coming to my table to understand what the problem is about. Of course i understood exactly what is going on - there was a sign in french "no cheques allowed" or so, he was thinking that i'm trying to avoid cash, at some point i had to wave the bills :-) With the help of younger staff all went OK quickly, actually it didn't prevent me from coming again a couple of days later.. Actually i knew the word addition and was "a bit shy" to use Franch words, anyway the phrase "check please" is kind of an instinct for me..
re: oferl
"check, please" is so peculiarly American that you'd even create confusion in the UK ... btw, one of the euphemisms in French for l'addition/ the bill is "la douloureuse"/ the painful thing... and often all too appropriate !!
it's just too bad that douloureuse is filled with vowel sounds and liquid consonants that most foreigners can't quite manage
re: Parnassien
Oh that's cool, "bring me the painful thing".. We sometime use "what's the damage" slang, but painful thing is nicer. Not sure i had issues with check while visiting UK, and indeed it stuck from the more often visits to the US.
You could also seek out vegetarian or vegetarian-friendly restaurants - Le Grenier de Notre Dame and the well-known falafel places (L'As du Fallafel and King Falafel) come to mind.
Please do not apologize for being a tourist. Trust me, you will not be the first one they have encountered. Do not apologize for not understanding what they are saying to you. You will find common ground. You want to buy something, they want to sell you something. Through the years, I have eaten my way through France with three basic phrases. Check please, thank you very much, and it's so good. And I smile.
And please wear good, upscale clothes. Leave the blue jeans at home. Coat, tie, dress, pant suit, and this time of year, a winter coat appropriate for the city, not the ski slopes. When I started wearing a coat and tie to restaurants, I was pleasantly surprised at how this tourist was treated. Europe is far more formal than North America.
re: INDIANRIVERFL
If you don't wear blue jeans, you'll be the only person in Paris who isn't. Really.
Nobody wears a coat and tie except at the office -- after 5, the coats and ties are gone -- there are a huge number of French companies whose employees wear jeans and nice shirts to work every day.
Those that do wear coats and ties to work ditch them as they walk out of the office. That doesn't mean that they change into pajama bottoms and flip-flops -- but I promise you -- you'll see more Parisians in jeans than in suits. I work with a number of French companies and every single one of them has a jeans dress code every day --
Wear what YOU like, what YOU are comfortable wearing, and that's the only criteria you have to meet. You'll see Parisians wearing anything imaginable -- including a few who look like they could be featured on People of Walmart.
And Parisians don't notice and don't care what you're wearing -- they have their own lives to lead, and what a tourist is wearing isn't even on their radar.
re: sunshine842
oh I think they notice. but as long as the jeans are well tailored...
as a friend admitted during a transit strike once "yes, I have been seen on the Rue de Rivoli in ... (gasp) track shoes."
re: hill food
Nope -- Parisian high school kids wear jeans with the crotch approaching the knees, too. (bizarrely, they're made with a waist that sits at the waist -- just with a very long, baggy seat)
Parisians wear sneakers -- to work. Not white ones usually (although white ones certainly appear) -- but they wear track shoes.
re: sunshine842
oh not this pal, he worked for a large fashion house yet would stomp around
West Memphis Arkansas in a full length mink coat (just not done in AR as a guy) sizing and balancing a good shotgun for his daddy for Christmas. the dichotomy was stunning. I still stand today in awe of the mass of his cojones.
so in that context cheap shoes were out of the question except in a dire circumstance. but Metro was down so....
so even though this is CH and a bit ot just be stylish and you'll be cool (I once dined at le Boeuf sur l'Etoile or whatever it;s called with an octogenarian wearing wraparounds and I wish I had too - the lighting was terrible)
au branche baby!
re: sunshine842
I slightly disagree. Parisiens (including me) do notice what you wear. It might matter less in Ménilmontant or Saint Ouen than in St Germain des Prés or Passy ... but it sill matters.
Waiters are especially judgmental. They can assess the "worthiness" of French customers by vocabulary/ grammar/ "registre" but when it comes to foreigners the serveur/ serveuse can only rely on appearances. So for tourists, looking good and well-dressed is advised. Well-dressed does not, of course, mean formal. Unfortunately, women are judged much more harshly than men so the best advice for female tourists: get a good hair-do and invest in stylish accessories. You can wear jeans or whatever you like as long as the hair and the accessories work well.
re: Parnassien
Well said. And emphasizing, well-dressed does not mean fancy. It means simple and put together looking. Soigné goes a long way.
re: Parnassien
Oh, baloney.
I don't know about you, but I don't WANT to eat somewhere that some snotty server thinks he or she is so much better than I am that he/she can make judgements based on my clothes. This would be the whole stereotype about French waiters (sometimes well-deserved) that the entire city is painfully aware of and working hard to reverse. I haven't been treated like sh*t in a Paris restaurant for years -- big or small, expensive or cheap, jeans or stilettos. It's a good trend.
Note that I did NOT say to go out wearing whatever torn, stained old thing you happen to throw on...but in an economic crisis, the waiters only care that you pay.
re: sunshine842
Like it or not, Paris (like all of the world's best and most interesting cities) is very tribal. BCBG classique, BCBG branché, bobo, hip, de la zone etc are defining styles and each has its own preferred quartiers, restos, cafés, clubs, fashion, and even language. Tourists unfortunately don't usually fit into any "tribe".
Most of us Parisiens know how to effortlessly move from tribe to tribe. Just a simple adjustment of what we wear and the language we use to explore another tribe. And we know the boundaries and the rules. Foreigners don't ... and show up at at BCBG classique hangout looking like they just came from the beach or at a hip joint looking like they just emerged from the 1980s.
I don't think that waiters look down on anybody, even at their snottiest. But there is certainly a bewilderment and resentment when tourists disregard the restaurant's tone and style.
re: sunshine842
Sunshine - I wonder how much of the Parisian sense of style you have absorbed over your years living there? Maybe you fit in more than you think, maybe you are now more Parisian than your countrymen or women are and whilst he differences are subtle they are still differences that are picked up upon.
I would never assume I looked Parisian (no matter how hard I tried) but I am reasonably confident I was seen as more local than tourist as I bought my clothes in Paris, and absorbed some of the local style. Most of this may be subliminal but I really did sense an obvious change in relationship when I paid with my Carte Bleue - a warming, a bigger smile etc etc. If this happened when I paid I am certain I was assessed when I sat down and attitudes were set accordingly.
I agree you don't often get the architypal french waiter of legend these days but the difference between a great dining experience and an average is often a case of percentages. So when I eat out (not just in Paris) I wear what I think fits the venue, in Paris it is more extreme as Parisians across the spectrum of styles, tribes, age groups do dress well. Why else are the low slung jeans tailored to fit at the waist? So if it is a game of percentages it makes sense to play it to your advantage.
re: PhilD
the low-slung jeans are tailored to fit at the waist so they can wear them to school without being sent home to change, because a glimpse of your shorts is enough to send any French school teacher into a hissy fit.
I'll state it one more time -- I never said anything about looking like a slob -- nor did I say that you should walk into Frenchie wearing frayed jeans with a hole in the knee and a teeshirt from the last century. In fact, I said you need to look "pulled together" -- clothes that fit your body, probably made this century, clean and all in one piece. From there, it depends on where you're going as to how much pulling you need to do.
All I said was that Parisians wear jeans -- and sneakers -- far more than the rest of the world wants to believe they do, and it's a pretty sure thing that you'll see jeans in the vast majority of restaurants in the city.
re: sunshine842
HA! my point - even when trashy, it's well tailored. very French. (sorry couldn't help myself)
but back on topic, veggie in Paris does depend on the level of definition. there is always awesome falafel and disappointing VN (who'd a thought after the history of France in the Indochine?) but if one allows amounts of animal fat in a prep or soup stock or sauce, and dairy, well it opens up a bit (see remark meaning being a strict vegan is hard)
also to the OP - (you're from Canada right?) since we were NOT raging jerks running around, people assumed we (US) were Canadian. I was never quite sure whether to be insulted or complimented (uhh OK you're saying we're polite, but saying something bad about my compatriots). interesting situation. I just went with it.
re: hill food
Half-assed vegetarians, which most self-proclaimed vegetarians in the west seem to be these days, will be ok in Paris.
Serious vegetarians are better off renting an apartment with a kitchen which will give them control over their diet.
As for the dress code, my Parisian friends when asked always say: we're casual.
That's Paris casual. Nor mall-trash casual.
If those well-tailored denims they wear are called jeans, then the formless, never washed things with pockets permanently misshapen from containing the ubiquitous mineral water should perhaps be called something else.
The best is to look at a photo onsite of the resto you want to go to, and ask yourself: do you think the way you dress fits the level of soigné-ness of the décor?
re: sunshine842
Sunshine and Indianriver are at two extremes. Of course many in Paris wear jeans and this includes most kids and students. But equally the French fashion sense means that the jean are often worn with a smart jacket and good shoes, especially young professionals. And the same is true of suits: I experienced a greater percentage of people in Paris wearing suits (but not ties) when I worked in Paris that in London or the US (and I was in IT). At lunches and dinners with colleagues we wore the suits. Going out with friends no suit but in top restaurants a jacket and decent shirt.
And why does this matter when eating in restaurants? Parnassien, highlights one element, the FOH staff will make judgements based on your look and your manners. If you dress like a tourist who doesn't care, then they may treat you like a diner who doesn't care. If you make an effort to adopt local standards then your experience is probably going to be better. The other element is that it is quite nice to fit in, eating in a restaurant and feeling part of it is a good feeling, and dressing the part adds to this.
Does this hold true in the more, trendy, casual restaurants like Au Passage? I think that is more tricky. The young professionals who throng to these places exhibit and effortless chic, mis-matching clothes and styles that still looks good. You won't get bad service in a place like this (after all there is very little to start with) but you will stand-out if you look like a stereotypical tourist if you wear the usual uniform.
Certainly there are only a few restaurants in Paris with a dress code these days so you won't starve if you don't dress well. But, in many restaurants, if you want a nice table, friendly service, little extras, and a feeling of place: then it is worth making the effort.
re: PhilD
Nothing like making a sweeping generalisation to stir the pot. That was not my intent. The OP stated that they will be in Paris a couple of days. As part of a tour or a fast weekend, we don't know. I have always found it easier to be slightly overdressed than wishing I had worn shoes instead of sneakers.
And where is a vegetarian to go in Paris for memorable food?
re: INDIANRIVERFL
I didn't intend it to be a sweeping generalisation, i believe a "coat and tie" vs "If you don't wear blue jeans, you'll be the only person in Paris who isn't" do represent extremes.
I only wore a tie to a restaurant if it was a working lunch. However, I often wore a jacket (coat) and jeans when relaxing in restaurants at the weekends which seems to sit in the middle of these two perspectives.
re: PhilD
Thank you everyone for your input. I am doing my best to learn the most polite phrases and practices & master whatever basic french I can so that I can make an effort. I did a quick shop this afternoon to make sure I have a few nicer outfits for meals out in Paris... I appreciate the tips there. Not sure where we will be eating and what the dress code will be, but it certainly helps to have options on hand in case. That being said, I'm only in Paris for 4 days and don't want to buy an entirely new wardrobe to make sure my service is better. I will do my best and it will just have to be what it is. Toronto is very casual and it is rare that you are ever asked to dress up (I have a few dresses I left at home that I've maybe worn once each because I never have an occasion), so it is good to learn that other places have different expectations.
re: earthmomma
Let's simplify it. Steve Jobs' look works most places. I just think "black", add a handful of accessories for color and call it good. Remember all the celebs who made the Gap black pocket t-shirt a fashion icon. We've come a long way since then, but not far. :)
FWIW, the last time I wore a rather nice dress to dinner in Paris, our French friends arrived, she in fabulous pants, shirt and jacket. I have never felt more dowdy in my life! I haven't worn a dress there since.
re: mangeur
Put another way: In June, the airline misplaced my bag, leaving me for 48 hours with only the clothes I had flown in: good charcoal jeans, a charcoal cashmere sweater, black ballerina flats, a chain neckace, a scarf and jacket. This motly collection easily took me to two of the restaurants highly touted on this board.
re: mangeur
Look smart, look pulled together -- understated is the key word.
(you have my due respect, mangeur -- nothing's worse than having to live in the clothes you traveled in -- and that's exactly why I never wear sweats on the plane as many vacationers do.)
re: earthmomma
you're from Toronto? (Canada, like the US can mean SO many things) Toronto ain't exactly hillbillyville. so you'll be fine, don't hesitate to add some discreet accessories (and hey there's a reason to hit some stores) you'll be OK
I was in Paris in the spring and speak zero French...I mean it....Zero. I found that having a cheat sheet of menu translations helped. Also in all the restaurants I was in, most waitstaff spoke English. If not, they would get someone to help you that did. Sometimes instead of having them explain all the selections on the menu (if there was no english translation), I asked them what they would recommend. It worked out well for me. I wouldn't stress to much about the language. I would have someone write down the phase for any specific food needs in advance and show them to the waitstaff or learn to say them yourself. Good luck and have a great time!! It's an amazing city!
I wouldn't worry too much about clothes. I'm a hippy chick from California, and never have had a problem. Do bring good shoes! Paris can be a lot of walking, and it has just gotten cold in France... winter, finally!!
Menus should not be a problem, and in Paris practically everyone speaks French especially in the restaurant/hotel industry.
There is a GREAT falafel that we visit often when we are in Paris.
You may also consider Indian food, which has a lot of veggie options. Oh! And there in an incredible pizzeria called Da Vinci at 12 rue Eduard Nieuport!
For more ideas I recommend David Lebovitz's blog. He is an American expat who knows about all things food. I have benefited from his recommendations a number of times.
re: sistabella
"and in Paris practically everyone speaks French especially in the restaurant/hotel industry."
Yes, I'd say that's about right ! ;)
re: Rio Yeti
Accent on the "practically".
re: Parigi
at least 50% do.
re: hill food
Just returned from Paris -- thank you everyone for your help. Didn't have any problems with clothes... I found it very casual everywhere I went, very much like Toronto. I went and bought nicer shoes for the trip but didn't end up wearing them once! Did my very best to speak french and everyone was nice -- except in a couple of boulangeries where they appeared a little frustrated -- but that was rare. I did my best.
We were on the go so much that we were often eating sandwiches & baguettes on the run, but we did have a few foodie highlights. We tried As Du Falaffel, based on sistabella's recommendation. Delicious! It was so big we shared one and felt stuffed.
You can't find a fondue restaurant in Toronto, so we went to Pain, Vin, Fromage and it was fabulous (though I can't say I felt so great after eating so much cheese and bread... but it was worth it!)
For ice cream we went to Berthillon. So delicious, although that was the only occassion that our waitress was a bit rude. We ate at several cafe's where we had lovely omlets and crepes. Overall the quality of everything we ate was much higher and more consistent than I've found anywhere else I've been.
We spent a whole day at the Louvre, so we ate in their restaurant for lunch. The soup appetizer was odd (was supposed to be purely vegetarian, but they decided to make it a shrimp soup that day without giving us warning -- my boyfriend tried to make the best of it but found it really strong and unappetizing), but both of our fish dishes were delicious. Bread everywhere was excellent.
Overall we ate fabulously well and managed to communicate enough in french that very rarely were we spoken back to in English. We had a wonderful time. Paris is so magical!
On our last night we did try the Indian restaurant around the corner from our flat... very bland and strange. We heard that indian restaurants often cater to the Parisian tastebuds which prefer milder food... don't know if that is true or if this place just wasn't our cup of tea. We're used to indian food in Toronto which is very spicy, rich, and flavourful. That was our only disappointing meal.
re: earthmomma
'Didn't have any problems with clothes... I found it very casual everywhere I went.." Interesting, but I can't see from your post that you ate in and good restaurants. it would useful for others if you put this comment into context by sharing which other restaurants you visited in addition to a take-away falafel cafe, a museum cafe, and a neighbourhood indian.
re: earthmomma
Reflecting on the fears you described in your original post, I am smiling at how well your language skills stood up to their tests. Thanks for reporting back.
I have been haunting the France board for nearly 2 1/2 years now since dating a French Parisienne native and we have gone there together a few times - he has lived in the states for 20 years, with regular trip back, but tends to go to his 'memory' places he is used to, and classics he knows about, and I was always looking for the new bistronimique trend for us to eat at...
All that background to say, I only just stumbled onto 2 amazing guides for translating menus english/french or french/english. One is a great list of food items, terms, etc. and the second is all those even-more-confusing colloquial 'kitchen-French' verbs that explain style of cooking, or some such that is common to anyone French, but makes the translation kind of outside of most translators.. the A-Z guide of french foods, and the A-Z guide of french menu terms. It is not cheap: 23€ at Amazon.fr, 24€ direct from the publisher www.scribo.fr . Currently not available from amazon in america... but wait - there is immediate help!
Patricia Wells French food glossary, which is pretty comprehensive (from my humble perspective), and a FREE download. Merci! I am saved....
Check out this thread. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/749458
my eyes are opened! I ordered them both without delay, despite the price, as well as downloading and printing Patricia Wells glossary this weekend.
This should make for a lively dinner discussion this Wed. when the Frenchman and I get together again. There is so much I need to understand better, and that I already do now!
re: gingershelley
In addition to restaurant help, take these guides to the markets with you and to the butcher, etc. A-Z includes the most esoteric fruits and vegetables and all kinds of offal, including the dreaded (by me) fréchure.
re: mangeur
PhilD, yes, I realize that we didn't end up going to some of the fancier restaurants (big part of that was lack of time with everything we wanted to see and my concern with vegetarian options -- also being so full from pastries & baguettes that I barely had room for a several course meal) but I assume that anyone going to a fancy or upscale restaurant should be smart enough to dress up a little? I think it's common sense if you plan to spend 200 euro on a meal a person that you don't show up in sweatpants. Maybe I'm wrong, but my sense from the conversation was that it wasn't just specific to upscale restaurants and I was nervous about encountering it everywhere. Yes, we had falafels on the street and got takeaway indian at some point, but we did sit down for some lovely meals and never did I feel the service was snobby or did what I was wearing make a difference. And everyone was very kind to whatever language issues we had. Of course I would recommend someone to dress up a little when going out for fine dining, but I would recommend that anywhere.
Aside from the Louvre, I loved Musée d'Orsay ... didn't want to leave. My boyfriend is passionate about film, so we visited Cinémathèque Française -- which was interesting but much smaller than what the website made it seem to be. But my favourite parts of the trip were just walking through the streets, along the Seine, exploring neighbourhoods, cafes, boulangeries, riding the metro, and getting a feel for the city as a whole. We finished the trip by having a view of the city up next to the Sacré-Cœur -- just stunning.

The opening match of Livewire's Championship Wrestling gave the crowd everything it was looking for as their good guy Mickey Muscle pinned Ravishing Ronnie, who is sponsored by Gatorade, with a top rope body slam. In the 2nd match, Jack O. Lantern came out against Landon Manson. As a twist to this; Manson, who plays a wrestler that is a little "nutty" introduced his new Manager, that in all actuality seemed to be just as much off his rocker, if not more than the wrestler himself, his "psychiatrist" Dr. Lucian Tomes. In that match Jack O. Lantern put Manson to the mat in short order…while someone was under the rink…holding Dr. Tomes, and his clipboard, in place. In the LCW State Title Match, Dark Priest was hit in the head by CJ Bailey for a pin and CJ declared the winner. That was quickly reversed as the crowd were on their feet letting the Refs know what a scoundrel CJ was, leaving CJ and his managerial team leaving the ring both beltless and shamed for their cheating ways.
When CaK and Major Knox hit the ring and shook hands, the first time that had happened all night, I thought this is going to be a scientific match. It was, and a very good one! The comradery between the 2 of them was great to see and they communicated a story with their wrestling. I interviewed CaK (Corey Kirkpatrick) at intermission and he told me, "He liked his wrestling to tell a story from beginning to end to give the audience the best show for their money." He said, "My hero's growing up in wrestling were Hulk Hogan and Macho Man Randy Savage, and I remember wanting to be like that, wanting to do this even when I was little. I went to a church in Rolling Fields and the youth minister gave me free lessons; he taught me things in wrestling that would have cost a lot of money to learn and I have a lot of respect for him."
In female wrestling, Amazing Maria was set to wrestle, however her match up Roxxey Star didn't show up so Maria and her manager, Preston Douglas put out a call for anyone to take them on…and there were 2 wrestlers who took the call…THE MORPHS, wrestlers in complete body suits from head to toe, who ended the match with pies in the faces of Amazing and PPD. The crowd loved it!
Managers Precious Preston Douglas, Dr. Lucian Tomes, CLT and Mr. Lynch hit the ring for a Manager showdown. It turns out that Dr. Lucian Tomes bored Douglas to sleep and Mr. Lynch couldn't take the heat. CLT, who can't dance is just plain hated, but in the end of the showdown, Precious Preston Douglas was the most hated of all managers, and loved being voted as so. He paraded himself around the ring in his UK t-shirt and shorts with his cheesy trophy, a sort of a pie in the face reward!
Other action was an OWA Match with Jeremy Brake vs Tony Petry and an 8 Man Tournament for the LCW Title. Wrestlers J-Rush Hangman, Mr. Maniacal, James True, Ray Moss, Killjoy, Anthony Smith and Jesse Watson were in action.
The main event was the World Heavyweight Belt match between CaK and Mickey Muscle. It was a great match and the crowd was split on who they were voting for. In the end CaK won the belt, and it was a hard win.
There are a lot of wrestlers that come from all over wrestle at Livewire. Some of them are Charlestown and Evansville IN., Hillview, Fairdale KY., and Lawrenceburg KY. and Tennessee

04.08.07 - By Scott Frake: WBC super bantamweight champion Rafael Marquez (37-4, 33 KOs) was shockingly stopped tonight by challenger Israel Vazquez (42-4, 32 KOs) in the sixth round tonight at the Dodge Arena, in Hidalgo, Texas. Shortly after being knocked down by a tremendous left hook thrown by Marquez, the referee Guadalupe Garcia stepped in and stopped the bout despite Marquez seeming to be alright and fighting back without any problems. At the time of the stoppage, Marquez had a comfortable lead in the fight and had Vazquez cut around both eyes.
In the opening rounds, both fighters stood toe-to-toe, trading huge shots at close range. Like in the first fight, it appeared that Marquez was getting the better of Vazquez, tagging him with powerful jabs and right hands. Marquez, though, was stunned briefly in the third round, but appeared to recover well and continue slinging bombs nonstop.
There was talk afterwards of a third bout between the two fighters, although it's unclear how many people would be interested in watching a third bout between them considering the unsatisfying premature stoppage tonight.

Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven and Other Plays
"Bold, unguarded work . . . that resists pat definition. [Young Jean] Lee has penned profane lampoons of motivational bromides (Pullman, WA) and the Romantic poets (The Appeal). Now she piles her deconstructive scorn upon ethnic stereotypes in Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven, a sweet-and-sour parade of Asian minstrelsy."—Time Out New York
"A perverse, provocative, and very funny festival of racism . . . Songs offers not only chauvinistic monologues and ass-slapping Korean dances, but also a rigorous exploration of art-making and its associated terrors."—The Village Voice
"Have you ever noticed how most Asian Americans are slightly brain-damaged from having grown up with Asian parents?" begins the Korean American protagonist of Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven, the singular work of Young Jean Lee, whose plays are like nothing you have ever seen or read. This is the first collection by the downtown writer-director, whose explorations of stereotypes of race, gender, and religion are unflinching—and seat-squirming funny. Also includes Groundwork of the Metaphysic of Morals; The Appeal; Pullman, WA; Church; and Yaggoo.
Young Jean Lee was born in Korea and moved to the United States at age two. She grew up in Pullman, Washington, and attended college at the University of California, Berkeley, where she also studied Shakespeare in the English PhD program before moving to New York. She is the founder of the Young Jean Lee's Theater Company, where she directs her own work, and has toured internationally in Vienna, Hanover, Berlin, Switzerland, Brussels, Norway, France, and Rotterdam; and across the United States in Portland, Seattle, Pittsburgh, and Minneapolis. She is the recipient of a 2007 Emerging Playwright OBIE Award.

If you're researching popular interventional labs, you'll see almost immediately that two of the hottest contenders on the market are the GE Innova 4100 and the Philips Allura Xper FD20. Of course, your next question becomes something similar to this: "Which of these is better for my facility?" That's an excellent question and one that can only be answered by weighing your facility's situation against the pros and cons of these two labs. That's where a good, old-fashioned comparison article like this comes in!
We'll kick off this comparison by saying that both of these models are high-quality systems that excel in a number of areas. The points below will highlight their separate strengths to lend some clarity to the choice between the two.

As if the initial decision to open a surgical center wasn't big enough, those of you entering this territory are about to find yourselves embarking on a series of subsequent big decisions. One of the biggest will be which imaging equipment you choose.
The systems you're likely to need fall into two major categories: Mobile C-arms and cath/angio or interventional labs. The price points, technical features, service costs, and applications for these products are very different from one another, so it's important to have an understanding of what type of usage each is intended for.

As you look into your cath lab options you're sure to read all kinds of material about features, comparisons, and the logistics of a cath lab project. All of these things will have a hand in determining which system you choose but, ultimately, will depend upon your facility's budget scenario.
This is where a multi-year financing plan comes in. If the system that best fits your site's needs is outside of your annual capital equipment budget, consider financing it across several years. The right plan could eliminate the need to compromise on features that increase your OR capabilities and efficiency.
As a point of reference, take a look at the tables below to see the monthly payments for leasing a GE Innova cath lab from Block Imaging.

JANIE McCAULEY
AP Baseball Writer
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- At around age 10, Hunter Pence acquired a Barry Bonds poster from his elementary school fair. It was then that Pence started choking up on his bat just as Bonds did in that prized picture that wound up on his wall.
Pence has become one of the San Francisco Giants' most reliable hitters with his unique, funky style -- and no question emulating baseball's home run king has served him well for two decades since his days of youth baseball.
"I just grab it where it feels good," Pence said. "I've always choked up, since about 10 or 11ish years old. I don't remember exactly but I had a Barry Bonds poster that I bought and he was choked up, and I kind of copied him. He was one of my favorite players."
Not only does Pence have a team-leading seven home runs while batting .291 with nine doubles and a triple, he is the only one on the reigning World Series champions to start all 38 games this season and play every inning.
Manager Bruce Bochy regularly checks with his right fielder to see if he might need a break. Nah, Pence just wants to play.
"That's what I'm supposed to do," he said before a 5-1 win against Atlanta on Sunday. "I get paid to play. I love to play. It's an honor. I've been fortunate not to have injuries. I'm grateful to be able to play."
The Giants are thrilled to have him for a full season this year, too.
Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez has watched Pence burn both his Braves and former Marlins teams over the years, with Pence playing for Houston, then Philadelphia, and now the Giants.
"He comes up with the darndest hits. He just beats you every time, him and (David) Eckstein," Gonzalez said. "He's not going to strike out, and you know he's going to put the ball in play and something's going to happen. Everybody wants to see these beautiful swings and these beautiful, fluid motions, but that's not him, other than he beats you every time."
Not that Pence is keeping track of his numbers against Gonzalez -- whose compliment he said he greatly appreciated -- or anybody else.
It is just mid-May, after all.
"I assess today. That's all that matters," Pence said. "Our goal is to get into the playoffs. It's a long way away and we have to stick to the process. Every day's a new day. I just try to go out there and compete."
Pence is hitting .327 with five doubles, three homers and eight RBIs over his last 12 games going into the opener of a quick two-game series at Toronto starting Tuesday.
After coming to the Giants in a trade from the Phillies at last summer's deadline, and making a big impact down the stretch and in the postseason, everybody in the Bay Area has been eager to see Pence for an entire year.
He is often quirky and awkward on the field, yet always thoughtful and polite off it.
Pence quietly sits at his locker alone before games along a far wall in the clubhouse, this past week reading "Sadaharu Oh: A Zen Way of Baseball," on the Japanese Hall of Famer.
"There's some good stuff," Pence said.
He rides a motorized scooter to work, something he knows fascinates fans but he just considers his mode of transportation to and from work.
Pence would rather stick to baseball talk, though he doesn't do much talking.
"He's really swinging well. He hasn't missed a game, he hasn't missed an inning," Bochy said. "You just have to love the way he plays the game."
Pence had lunch with Bonds a couple of years back, and figures why not keep copying the former Giants slugger in the way he holds the bat. They have been in touch from time to time.
"I do appreciate the story. I've said this, so many times earlier when Bonds was playing, I was surprised more hitters didn't choke up like Barry or try to emulate Barry with all the success that he had and the power that he had," Bochy said. "You really didn't see it, and it surprised me. You can choke up and be a good hitter."
In terms of players choking up, Bochy believes it works.
"Yeah, sure it does," he said. "You don't see many hitters choke up. That was a big thing in Little League and high school, 'choke up, choke up.' I took a video of my son (Giants minor league pitcher, Brett) -- I should have sent it in for one of the funniest videos -- he kept missing the ball, so I said, 'Brett, choke up,' and he went (cough, cough). I went, 'Ah, OK.' He was only about 5, and that's all he thought about for choke up."

Rotary Scholar helps the homeless through art
Liz Powers, 2011-12 Rotary Scholar to Edinburgh
Liz has worked with homeless and disabled individuals in America for the past eight years. From 2006-10, she worked one-on-one with homeless individuals and helped them secure housing, employment, and food stamps. After graduating from Harvard in 2010, Liz received a fellowship to start art groups in women's homeless shelters in the Boston area.
"From 2011-12, I received a Rotary scholarship to study in Edinburgh. I earned a masters creating social change documentaries and started an art show that focused on the amazing talents of homeless individuals.
"Working with homeless artists as a Rotary Scholar was revolutionary for my growth as a social entrepreneur. In December of 2013, my brother Spencer Powers and I founded ArtLifting, an art gallery that features the work of homeless and disabled artists. By being on the ArtLifting platform, artists are emotionally empowered and have an opportunity to earn a stable income. ArtLifting's impact has been featured in the Boston Globe, Bloomberg Businessweek (online), ABC local news, and the Huffington Post. Our mission is inspired by Rotary's mission of Service Above Self."

Clubs looking to raise their profile can get a set of two outdoor banners and two Rotary wheels as shown at a competitive cost by contacting MPRC chair Archie Ralston. Sadly, it doesn't include the dog.

Bill Gates' message to Rotarians on what we have achieved in the campaign to eradicate Polio from the world. Rotarians in District 1020 are very active in this campaign, raising a large sum of money towards it, and many have helped as volunteers in mass immunisation days.
He says that "144,000 Rotarians in the region worked tirelessly to secure the political commitment and the money...". That's the difference with Rotary, It's not just fundraising, we're an organisation of influencers and achievers. If that describes you, why not contact your local club? The "Clubs" menu option above will let you find out about the ones in our district, or see below to use the postcode search.
Rotary enters the record books as Guinness World Records recognises the world's largest photo-awareness campaign. More than 115,000 participants from 171 countries added their "This Close" photo to support the fight to end polio, including a large number from Southern Scotland.

On Welcome to the Cinema's first full-length release, the burgeoning talent of these South Dakotans spills out in abundance. They mix rousing indie rock with an occasional spacey synth and brief moments of twee sprinkled in for good measure. Upon first listens to Blocks and Hills, my ears were treated to a shiny little breakthrough. From its first moments of Strokes-infused frenetic rock, the album continues on as a sharply produced, refreshing work of standout proficiency. With night-and-day vocals that go from a glorious, angsty whine to a charmingly sweet sing-song, there is a decidedly undecided vibe from this band. The record itself is multifaceted in scope and vision, yet it still manages to feel put-together and seamless. I can already sense great things from these guys, but first things first—I can't wait to see them play. Also on tap are hometown favorites the Hopefuls, who are playing a smattering of shows this year after an off-and-on presence, along with Prozac Rat and Golden Bubbles. 18+.

A little about me...
Part 1:
Here's me, and if you understand what I've written, or don't understand but find me intriguing and somehow arousing, send a note.
I'm not ordinary and neither are you. We're both accomplished and educated. We both have a sense of humor, believe that Life has purpose and things happen for a reason. We both like to read, but do all kinds of other activities also. You understand that my life is very serendipitous, painted with broad strokes and rich colors. I know that most people don't have a life as amazing as mine, and I respect that. But you respect that my life is nearly magical; it really is that amazing.
I intend to live another 70 or 80 or hundred years, so I eat healthfully and I love physical activity. But when I need a small bag of Fritos, an apple isn't going to work. If you want to see me in a gown, feel free to take me shopping...my goal will be to find some long sleek black silky thing that makes teenage boys blush and old men wish they were 50 and rich! In normal circumstances, I dress for the occasion, clean lines, simple attire. In winter, I like to wear tight black pants with soft silk blouses, jewelry and high heels.
About the one I'm looking for...
Part 2: By now you just realized I don't follow the norm...lol
I enjoy setting the standard, which, in this world full of mediocrity, can confuse. I don't do anything EVER for the purpose of drawing attention to myself; I do what I want to do, with an emphasis on kindness and respect.
I love meandering through cool darkened museums on a hot Summer day, floating in some lake while the water caresses my skin and the sun kisses my eyelids...I love throwing down a blanket and pillow in your backyard and watching the stars cross the sky. I love kissing and feeling the normal and natural reaction from you, that has been beaten down and filtered out of you for so long that you forget it's okay to feel that way and I don't care if it's obvious. My superpower is that I know men spend a lot of time thinking about sex...and I'll do my best to tease you mercilessly with my appearance and innuendo when we meet. I love, more than anything in the history of ever, to be touched, kissed, hold hands, make out...But don't think you've scored any victories with me because of that; my admiration, respect, and love have to be earned just as yours does. And my clothes haven't ever just slid off because a guy ran his lips down across my neck...
I'd just like to add...
Part 3:
I guarantee you will NEVER be embarrassed or bored with me at your side. I love cerebral activities mostly because I'm as lazy as possible, but I will try golf, tennis, flying a plane, mixed martial arts, rowing, swimming, hiking, walking, or whatever you are interested in trying. I'm not competitive. I'm quite confident and secure.
I'm cool in a crisis, will walk in and take control while others run out. I am fearless. I am very intelligent and have a complex mind, yet have a refreshingly unfettered personality, always happy, positive, and endowed with an inherent certainty that I am here for a purpose...and I am living up to that responsibility. I am refined and look for that in you.
90% of what I need to know about you will be shown by how you respond when a slow driver is in the pass lane.
I want to love very deeply, and I'm not afraid to experience all that goes with that. Neither you nor I do anything halfway. You're not crazy, you're accomplished and very intelligent. And if you're 6' or taller, I find that to be an extra attraction. You're not intimidated. Ever. You laughed through most of what I wrote and your mind went blank for a few seconds when I referenced sex.

Cult classic, possibly my all time fav comedy series. Being British not everyone will appreciate the many levels of humour this show contains. Many careers were launched from this show. French and Saunders, Fry and Laurie ... they all attended university together and Ben Elton then had even greater success with the Blackadder series before finding further fame with string of box office winners . It's theme song also thrust Cliff Richard back into the charts...not sure if that's a good thing or not. LOL. I also love the live music aspect of the show. 6/5 for me!!!

None of these links work... that kind of sucks.
|Posted by DreadPirateRobert 9 months ago ( Edited 1 month ago )
The memories of this show are often better than actually watching it now. Terribly dated, but still hilarious in places. Like just about everything Rik Mayall says, for instance.
|Posted by BeeBoo 2 years, 4 months ago
I'd always heard about this but I must have missed the boat on this one, just don't get it; all I see is spastic-slapstick comedy. Not saying I didn't do my share of spassing out but, well, I guess it was long ago...
