August in New York



When New York is empty in the summer, it can be quite pleasant, easy to park, easy to get a reservation, so we ended up on a non-raining Saturday night at a favorite bistro - Chez Jacqueline in the West Village (not to be confused with Chez Josephine on West 42d St.). It is small but friendly, a typical bistro menu, so Moules and Frittes, salade, and tart tartin for desert. The owner is French and our young charming waitress was from Nice. The wine by the glass list included a white wine which is (I'm told) excellent with fish and comes from the town where our dog came from - Pinet - outside Montpellier and has maybe 750 residents.
