La Maison de Verlaine – Paris, France

Located in the same building where Hemingway and Verlaine once lived, we were excited to dine in this charming traditional French restaurant. Choosing from the two prix fixe menus, we were able to sample escargot, duck pate, seafood trio, duck breast, creme brûlée, profiteroles, lovely wine and champagne. Nothing disappointed!
