Les Fils de La Ferme

We ate dinner tonight at the restaurant Les Fils de La Ferme, per several recommendations in the guest book of our apartment. They couldn't have suggested a better spot! Off the beaten track but lovely, only 10 or 12 tables but it was completely full. And only one waitress to work the whole place! We had some amazing fish with veggies- healthy(ish) and delicious(very). Everyone else in there in French, so it was great for me to be able to listen in on the conversations. I'm getting pretty good at that :) I definitely have to work on speaking louder when I speak French though. The waitress and I had a very amusing language barrier when she brought us a little appetizer. It was a small cup of a whipped something- mousse I guess- with a pesto-looking something on top. She was telling me it was "ail", which I of course couldn't remember, and she didn't know it in English. It was delicious though so we ate it nonetheless! I just consulted the ever-trusty Google and found that "ail" is garlic. Well I'm off to the tarte au chocolate we bought earlier :) A demain!
