Yep, the 7th and the 1st as well. Both were very nicely located to
see a lot of the usual tourist stuff, and we did a lot of walking/riding the
Metro. It helped to counteract all the rich dinners.

Fermette du Sud-Ouest was one of my favorite places we went to in
Paris, just an all-round good meal. The lamb was the best of the trip, too.
Pied de Cochon was interesting, but more gimmicky than most places. I'm not
sure I'd bother to go there again, it wasn't that special. Maybe if I'd
ordered something else besides the andouillette...but I was curious and wanted
to try it at least once. Now I know.
