Assembling a Dinner

One of the pleasures of having a little kitchen in Paris is being able to gather various food items from neighborhood shops and put together a simple but delicious meal using only a microwave and an induction-based stovetop. Last night, to celebrate Lynne and Robert's arrival in Paris, the menu chez nous consisted of the following:

Appetizers: olives in garlic, eggplant caviar, chèvre, and freshly-baked pain de campagne
Main course: eggplant lasagna, haricots verts, salad
Dessert: chocolate, mango, and lemon gelato with fresh raspberries
Wine: Cotes du Rhone Villages, 2007

Here are the honored guests, drinking a pre-dinner kir:
