00:30If you're in Paris, why not, you know, where else, I mean, wherever you're coming from,
00:36I mean, I came from the States, so if I tried this in the States, I know it's not going
00:42to be the same as it is here, so if you're in Paris, why not try their local food and
00:47their local cuisine?
00:48Definitely, definitely get it, I highly recommend it too.
00:53Chef Cecilia Miller admitted there are less customers than last year at the same period,
00:58but remains confident that there will be an excess of work once the Games get underway.
