About 10-15 minutes fron Notre Dame is Bouillon Racine. This restaurant tries to stay very traditional and is not so expensive for where it is (€40 for the a la carte). I didn't have it, but I'm told that the Creme Brulet is amazing.

To those of you in the UK, if you have local elections today, don't forget to vote.
Also, don't forget your photo id otherwise they'll send you away.
If you're in the Runcorn area, there's a parliamentary by election which would benefit from a good turn out.

Had a fun time at the Dragonmeet event yesterday. My I-Spy Grogs book was sparse, but of outstanding quality @pookie-uk.bsky.social, Niamh and Robert Carnel (both of whom I should be following but can't find).
