Petit Palais

Cool little museum. Not on the scale or grandeur of the larger art museums, but definitely has its charm. As we were in Paris for a few days we visited when we were walking around the city.

Admission is free, and the museum was not very crowded. We did see lines forming to get in as we were leaving closer to mid-day.
There is a nice courtyard in the middle of the museum that is perfect for a little break and a snack.

Some places.live up to the hype and some do not. This place absolutely does.
Small restaurant with 9-10 tables, was able to get a reservation online with a little persistence, definitely required keeping an eye when the reservation window opens.

The night we dined there it was a 100% American crowd of tourists, some clearly had no idea what the place was about, which was a shame.

Important to note that when we dined there, it was a blind tasting menu, in which they accommodated dietary restrictions.

The food was outstanding, the execution perfect, and with great creativity. The eggplant (3 ways if I recall) was perhaps the most memorable bite for me, with a crispy skin component and a warm fleshy component in 1 bite was awesome.

The service was absolutely fantastic. I find sometimes the service in Michelin starred restaurants to be too stuffy, formal, and even unpleasant. Not the case here, wait staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly courteous to all guests.

We dined in a few of Paris' top restaurants during our trip, and this was the best meal we had.
SW Steakhouse

This is what a high end steakhouse should look like.
Every dish was executed exactly right. Steaks prepared and seasoned perfectly. Fish skin perfectly crisp.
The sides were a surprise, with the elevation of classics like creamed spinach and sweep potatoes. They were awesome. Service was fantastic.
The only thing that was not absolutely superb was the dessert carrot cake which was dense.
The service was impeccable, we had one party member who was gluten intolerant, and they even had gluten free bread for them.
A fun there and back hike that is just under 4 miles, with pretty good incline and great views.
Starts as a fire trail and ends as a single track. Signage is pretty good, but there are a couple of places where having a map might help. Was overcast when we went, I would imagine it would be more scenic on a clear day.
