We had a tip from friends to get chicken from
the lady at the Bastille market. When we got
there there were a few ladies selling
chicken, but this woman _is_ The Chicken
Lady. She stands around chirping like a
chicken and it was clear that this was the
lady our friends wanted us to see. Fantastic
chicken. We sat down next to a fountain and
gobbled the chicken and potatoes with our
hands and washed up in the fountain. We did
the same again the next day. Best meal in
Paris.
I live in French Guiana, in South America and
when I go in Paris, I buy the best chickens
of this town in the Bastille market. The best one is "poulet miel/graines de
sésame"....It's a "régal"... So, if you stay in Paris, you have to go in
this market shop, where Cathy, the sympathic
chicken lady, send you a chicken.... You'll enjoy...
Cathy prepares a special herb chicken for me
when I order it, I love it, and so does my
family. I pick it up every sunday at the Bastille
market. True, I pay for the chicken, but
Cathys smile and good humor is free. What a deal!

That's quite a title you dub her! ;)

Her daughter scratched that royal title on her wooden cash box.
So I told her to tell her daughter that that makes her the "princesse de poulet" !

Heh, I guess that's one way to turn you blood blue - confer royal status on your family.
