Maybe next time

Today in our staff restaurant one of the lunch options was tĂȘte de veau, or calf's head. A French colleague insists it's delicious and I'm sure I'm betraying my unrefined palate, but I have my limits on what body parts I will and won't eat. Let's just say I was happy that there was also a tomato-mozzarella salad on the menu.

In other bad food-related news, last week a Burger King opened next to the train station and when I walked past, there must have been close to 100 people waiting in lines that went out the door. For freakin' Burger King! At least it gave me some comfort that Americans aren't the only ones who love to stuff their faces with fast food...
