Dinner #2 in Beaune

We're making good on Peter's suggestion to 'spend all your money'...on fine dining here! For dinner, we had a Grand Cru white with a cheese plate, which probably really confused our waitress, who is used to serving the cheese plate AFTER the entree. 
The wine was 

For our entree George went right back to the beouf borgeounon(sp), while I had chicken in a burgundy sauce with mushrooms. Both came with the best au grautin potatoes either of us have ever had. Mine FINALLY came with some vegetables! This dinner was somehow even better than last nights!


Of course we had another Grand Cru wine...


Scrat even had some! He's becoming quite cultured!


You may notice I'm wearing long sleeves. During dinner, it began to rain. Then it began to pour. Then it continued to pour! We kind of anticipated this after the rain last night, so we sat well under cover tonight. It's a good thing the French aren't in any hurry with dinner service! All we had to do was wait for it to end, and meander thru the very wet streets home! Scrat, however, had enough rain this morn and tucked in for the ride.

Tomorrow, while '45' meets with Mr. North Korea (maybe), we'll be touring and tasting in the Burgandy vineyards. I for one will give nary a thought to world events. They'll go on, for good or not, while we enjoy our slice of heaven right here.
