Friday 19 March: graduation ceremony

Last Friday I was invited to go to the graduation of both the superior cuisine and pastry students of LCB. A few of them were my classmates of last Intermediate. I arrived just in time for drinks and 'missed' the formal part, including Levi's 'speech'....
The graduation was at the Cercle de l'Union Interalliée, on Rue de Faubourg Saint-Honoré - a bloody posh shopping street, next to Mr.Sarkozy's and Carla B.'s little place. Nice!

Levi and Damien with their bosses!

Paris, graduation, drinks and dinner

just a quick message for now;
Arrived in Paris yesterday, with a 40 minute Thalys delay. Took a taxi to the apartment, changed quickly and took a taxi to the graduation ceremony of a few of my old classmates. (nice place, next to Mr.Sarkozy's office).

Met my old classmates, some LCB people (more news about them to follow later), had a few drinks and posh nibbels and went out for dinner with Damien, Levi and their girlfriends.

Today is Saturday. I'll have to do some shopping (mobile phone SIM card, fruit, coffee, beer) and just settle down. I'll have a quick look around in the neighbourhood.
I'll keep you updated with more stories and some pictures of yesterday's ceremony and my apartment.
Until later, it's raining now...
