1st December 2011: 47 Today

Great birthday so far — Rysmiel and I went out for a very good meal last night at a new place called French Connection Montreal, which I discovered by the simple method of reading their menu while waiting for a bus. They do a six course tasting menu and they’re really great about allergies. So I had six delicious courses of French food. The lowest points were really pretty good, and the high points were astonishing, including oysters with pomegranate seeds and lime, and chicken stuffed with sanglier in the style of maki. Amazing. The plan for today is that Z and A are coming over for dinner and present opening this evening. Because Z’s working rather odd hours he will have just got up!
