I tried the dish more out of curiosity than anything else and I was so impressed. On that dish alone, I returned to that restaurant several times to enjoy perfectly cooked beans, dressed lightly with butter and garlic, trimmed and served as a tied bundle on a white plate. Simplicity and taste combined into single entity.<BR/><BR/>After reading your post I added green beans to by shopping list and will be replicating that Paris moment tomorrow night.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29738446.post-37922617403369730532008-06-14T23:25:00.000-04:002008-06-14T23:25:00.000-04:00Thanks for fixing the link.
