Euro Birmingham - Chez Lulu

Chez Lulu in Mt. Brook's English Village is a little French café, but I was getting Italian and Spanish vibes there as well!

Guess Where I Had Lunch Yesterday?

Paris you say? Well I wish, but I did the next best thing....déjeuner à Chez Fonfon, Five Points South right here in Birmingham.  I had the pleasure of lunching with Jett Gibson Brooks. Jett is in town from Tacoma to attend the Shades Valley High School Reunion this weekend.  We have connected through Facebook and had a lovely day together. 

A Taste of France

Today my French amis are celebrating Bastille Day so I thought I'd add a little French flavor from right here in  Birmingham...Chez Fonfon on Birmingham's Southside.  Très français!

Have a Seat- Table/Chair Series III

#3 in my  *"Table and Chairs Series" this week can be found at Chez Fonfon French bistro in Birmingham's Five Points South area.  We spent several days here  last September when my friends flew off to La Bonne Etoile and I was suffering major French envy.  

* Merci Kim at Seattle DP for the idea of making this week's offerings into an ongoing series.

Waiting

These waiters at Chez Fonfon, on Birmingham's 5 Points District, were enjoying the calm before the storm. I caught them right before the evening crowd began to gather.  Chez Fonfon is one of Chef Frank Stitt's fine restaurants here in Birmingham.  Check one of my earlier posts for a photo of their outdoor dining area.

Blue Doors

Chez Fonfon, in the 5 Points area of Birmingham, offers French cuisine and outdoor dining where you can enjoy these lovely blue doors and play the game of  boules or petanque. (Thanks to my friends who helped me with the correct spelling!)
