I was having brunch at Bleu Boheme, a bistro I've never visited before which caught my eye about a year ago. At last, I was sitting in its lovely dining room.I zeroed in on a bread basket, which comes with either two baguettes or two toasted croissants, fluffy butter, a mix of jams, and coffee, for $7.50.
Before ordering, I inquired if it would be possible to get one of each (one baguette and one croissant), instead of two of one.
The reply was no.
I looked at my dining companion, a friend visiting from New York with her adorable new baby. She was looking at me, expectantly. What was I waiting for?
I turned back to the waitress.
"Is there any way you could let me try both? Pleeease?"
She thought about it, thougt about it some more, and then agreed.
Merci!
