VLM: Nice meeting you too. Nothing like a little light conversation over a glass or bottle or five.

Well, had lunch at Le Comptoir and it sort of served as dinner as well.

Picked up sandwiches to go from L’Avant which were fantastic. Marvelous ham.

It was nice meeting you and discussing H1N1 and vaccines.

Dorie: Thanks so much for your comment! I was there again last night for an apero. And, of course, the croquettes.

Shelli: Between the delicious lunches and now l’Avant next door, I really don’t feel so bad about never having had dinner there.

Had a delicious crepe there, from the window, after a movie last week. Next time, croquettes! And that Morgon sounds great too.

But we often have dinner next door on Saturday or Sunday night, when the menu is identical to that served at lunch during the week and if you arrive at a slightly off hour the wait is not long. Friends who have managed to snare that elusive mid-week dinner reservation have told me they prefer the regular menu.

Just came back from Avant Comptoir — your description is both accurate and lyrically evocative. Oh those croquettes …
