Nothing says french cooking like...Pizza Hut. Okay maybe not, but we wanted pizza.
So Friday night, someone had a craving for pizza, I think it was Mika, so plans were made and it was decided that on Sunday, Pizza Hut would be the provider of the main meal. Of course I thought we would probably just order in from the little Pizza Hut delivery place in Asnieres. Nope, Mika and Tommi wanted the whole experience of going in, sitting down, placing an order and relishing the famous Pizza Hut atmosphere.

On Sunday, after waking up with way too little sleep after our adventure to Cherbourg, it was time to go eat an afternoon meal. Mika, Tommi, Mindy and I set out for the Pizza Hut restaurant in the middle of Paris in the shopping district next to the Opera house. This was a fine dinning experience to be enjoyed!
The Opera. Maybe we might even make it inside before we leave.
Upon being seated and looking at the menus, Mika and Tommi decided that they wanted the full meal deal and set about ordering the unlimited salad bar, personal pizzas and refilable Pepsi's (this is very rare in France). Mindy and I went a little easier on the menu and split a medium pan pizza called a Queen (ham, double mushrooms, and mozarella). Not sure if Mindy was trying to make a statement or not with that order. Anyway, Mindy also went with the refilable Pepsi, while I stuck with water from the river, altough I snuck sips from her glass whenever the waitress wasn't looking.
Anyway, we all walked away satisfied with the meal and decided that a little post game...I mean post meal walk would do us some good. We checked out the Eglise de la Trinite (Church of the Holy Trinity) and again were impressed by outstanding arches and vaults. The neighbourhood however was not as nice (a nice homeless community), so we jumped on the Metro and headed back to the safety of Asnieres. It was a light day for French culture, but we enjoyed it all the same.
Four pretty happy imports enjoying the finer things in life, like Pizza!!!
