Bellota-Bellota

On Wednesday, Peter and I went to the Grand Palais to see a new exhibit showing the collection of art owned by the Stein family. Yes, that's as in "Gertrude Stein" and her family of art collectors who lived in Paris in the early 1900's and who befriended artists like Picasso and Matisse. It was a fantastic collection.

We walked there and back, in order to get some exercise. But on the way home, we were definitely ready for an afternoon snack. We passed by Bellota-Bellota on Rue Jean Nicot, and stopped in for a quick bite to eat. There is really nothing on the menu but ham, which is what makes this place so great. Its focus is on quality, and the quality of the ham we ordered was top-notch: some of the best ham we've ever eaten!
