A short stop in Nancy France

Just across the border from Luxembourg and a short train ride you can enjoy a short stay in Nancy France. I had no idea what to expect in the city. It had some fairly interesting things to see so I think it’s worth a day trip. It’s very easy to get around and it’s not a large town center. So at least when you tell people you visited France I think it’s fun to tell people you visited in Nancy France.

Large entryways
It seems obvious that these large streets were made for a large gatherings to enter, entertain and then exit. These entryways are very large.
Hotel de Ville
Every town seems to have a hotel de Ville. More than a hotel it seems to be the city Hall
A nice Vietnamese coffee
This was the best of Viennese coffee I have ever had
French idea of Thai food in Nancy France
Pitaya is a chain of Thai restaurants in France but they have their own concept of Thai food. It’s actually a Poké bowl. In Thailand they don’t put the main dish on top of the rice, they serve it on the side next to a plate of rice.
A cheese restaurant?
This is a pretty fun name for a what? I didn’t really find out but I think it’s got something to do with cheese. But it reminds me of how I used to call my dog DC when I wanted him to come home. I would say “cheese” this way. A little hint, he loved cheese.
An afternoon feast
at the museum this was the one piece of art that caught my eye. I found it an interesting portrayal of a feast on a farm. Noticed the fellow on the far right with this gigantic piece of bread he is slicing to serve people

Many of the beggars in France have a long explanation of why they need money. This guy even had a T-shirt indicating he had been running for a long time in Japanese
