Should everything go to plan, I will be headed to Paris for a quick trip April 11-15 and then be in the Loire the 15-18 (come back to NYC on the 18th). When I say according to plan, the first 3-4 months of the year are nuts from a work perspective, and I will be in London for work from March 30 to the 11th of April. We are working to sign off on our big UK entities the week of April 7th, so provided that happens, I will be on a train to Paris Friday afternoon.
I am starting to book restaurants. I want to think the poster that explained what time reservations for MoSuke opened. I am on tap to try and grab a Friday night MoSuke reservation tomorrow. So the plan, thus far is as follows:
While in Paris, rather than staying in a Hotel (with the Marathon on Sunday, hotels were $$$$), rented an apartment in the 2nd Arrondissement.
April 11 - Dinner @ MoSuke
April 12 - Lunch at Coretta in the 17th and Dinner at Kubri
April 13 - Going to see the Fashion Exhibit at the Louvre at 9 AM (it is also the Paris Marathon that day, so that will be fun), then headed to lunch @ Sushi B at 12:30. Dinner, planning a revisit to Amalia.
April 14 - Lunch at Le Truffaut and Dinner at Cafe des Ministeres.
April 15th, will head out of Paris and into the Loire. Staying at Fleur de Loire in Blois. This is home to Christopher Hay’s restaurant, so will do dinner there at least one evening (probably, Thursday night, April 17th. Plan while in the Loire is to see a few chateau’s and just enjoy the countryside.
I know I have been absolutely horrible at writing up my travels, but I am still finishing off some past Paris trips, then I am caught up and can hopefully do this one a bit more real time.
