Suppenkuche, Paulette, and Rive Gauche

To celebrate a good friends birthday, today we met up at Suppenkuche, where hardly an item on the menu was pronounceable. Though its hearty German fare, if I were a server, I'd surely get a kick out of people trying to order. Or maybe it would get old after a while?

A couple lighter items on the menu..Musli with yogurt and berries, and some brandied raisin pancakes.

A stop by Paulette was a must. I ordered two dozen macarons! :) For my mom's birthday dinner, we dined at Left Bank. Dinner was a bit disappointing, but that's what french macarons are for! We were only able to polish off a little more than half of them. And of course they're arranged in a rainbow... all OCD like.
