Belleville

Last night friends Brian and Lindsay introduced me and My Better Half to Belleville, a nice little French bistro over in The Slope. B&L had been for brunch, but not yet for dinner. The verdict: Yums!

Dinner was meaty, with three steaks and a lamb shank on the table. Nothing new or terribly exciting, but all very well prepared. The frites were good but not world-class (you can tell when they're fantastic because MBH raves like a lunatic).

Monday nights Belleville offers a two-for-one deal on entrees -- all the excitement of a Red Lobster promotion without any of the soul-crushing sadness! Presumably, it's to drum up business on a typically slow night, though the place was at least half-full last night. Maybe Mondays draw people in from outside the neighborhood (like us), or maybe they chill out at the start of the week, but in any event the Slopers weren't even very irritating.

What does MBF stand for?

MBF is My Better Half, she who has too much sense to waste her time starting a blog.

Right, and of course it should be MBH, which your faithful blogger is too addle-brained to pick up on. Anyway, time to revise history!
