Dinner at Les Philosophes
We returned to Les 
Philosophes for dinner.  Fish (probably pollock) with coconut milk, 
curry-ish rice.  Good.
Boeuf (beef) bourguignon.  It was definitely cooked with wine.  I also 
liked the biscuit and the butter-cooked mushrooms.  The dish 
inspired Di Yin to make her own beef bourguignon once back in the bay 
area.

I also had a glass of white wine from Sancerre, part of the Loire valley. It was good, crisp, simple, and dry, exactly as I expected and desired.
