Double dinners

Ended up going to Annie's Paramount Steak House with Kevin after lodge last night for a martini and fried mushrooms.

No sooner did I get home and online to check mail did I find Ian, who was in a social mood and after we IMmed for an hour, we decided to meet at Au Pied Bistro in Georgetown for an early early morning breakfast. Well, I walked all the way to Au Pied, whose web site says they are open til 3 a.m. on Monday nights, only to find them closed. So, we wandered over to the nearly-always-open Bistro Français, where I had a deliciously fluffy and tender omelette aux fines herbs with an order of thin, crispy pommes frites and some handmade mayonnaise for dipping. Ian was going to do a salade du marché avec chevre chaud but changed his mind at the last minute to order glacée de chocolat. After leaving the bistro, we loitered a bit on the streets of Georgetown watching the local constabulary turning doughnuts in the streets and racing off to their various coffee breaks with their lights flashing, before finally deciding to head our separate ways and go home to bed.
