This Tea Is Horseshit

Musee d’Orsay charges four euros for a cup of tepid water and a tea bag. This photo illustrates how we felt about this fleecing. Great museum, but we can’t recommend the restaurant. The food was “just okay” but expensive, and the overpriced tea pushed us over the edge.
Though you have to love how you can get a glass of wine for less money than a glass of Coke in France.
Why drink tea, anyway? You’re not in Britain anymore.
These are by far my favorite pictures from the trip. And yes, why are you not pounding the champagne and chablis while en France?
Well that’s just sad that the tea hasn’t gotten any better in the 10 yrs since I was there. 🙁
So if you want good tea, go back to England. I’m sure the French persons watching you take these photos in this swanky place were quite offended by your garish American behavior.
LOL, cute photos. But for hot drinks in France, un café or un café crème is the way to go. Un chocolat chaud is also good, but God forbid you ask for the two to be mixed. They don’t understand the concept of a mocha – or at least they didn’t back in 2004.
