France - Paris Again Day 2 - La Billybaude

 We wandered around at the end of a long day walking and decided to give this establishment, La Billybaude, a try. We were very satisfied with the result.
 My appetizer was marinated mackerel and this bowl was brought out for me!
 When the plate came out and I asked the waiter about the huge bowl, he explained that people served themselves what they wanted. Generally one or two fillets. I chose one of the larger ones. It was marinated in olive oil and very very good. Underneath was potatoes in a light broth.
 My wife had fois gras with a balsamic reduction and a bit of berry jelly.
 This is the wine we had.
 We both had the duck with a side of mashed potatoes.
 My wife had the berry cake.
I had the chocolate volcano type dessert.
