Power came back this morning at around 07h15, just as I was about to walk out the door to go to work. Ah, wouldn't you know it. Ah well. At least, I got to take the food that I had transferred to the freezer last night and put it back in the fridge. The night was not so terribly hot (knock on wood). Today, was another half-day friday (I could really get used to those)! The day goes by so quick!
Now, I have to talk about the restaurant we went to last night. It is called La Souvenance and oh my god, was it ever amazing! It is a French upper-class restaurant. Not only is the atmosphere incredible, the food was just amazing! I could not believe that I was in Haiti! I had a Cappacio (I think that is what its called) au boeuf (Mmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm) for starters and then had a Steak au poivre dans une sauce au cognac. How was it, you might ask? I can honnestly say that, in the restaurants that I have visited, this is way up there, if its not on top of my best ever restaurants!!! The meal cost me the equivalent of 52$ US (with 2 beers and tip included). Anywhere else, this would easily be a +100$ meal. It was just awesome!
So, this is my 2nd weekend in Haiti. Yesterday, it was one week that I was in Haiti. Tonight, I"m supposed to go watch a movie over at Mike's apartment and then tomorrow, 6 of us are going to the town of Jacmel (3.5 hours drive) and hopefully if it doesn't rain, we'll stop by the Bassin bleu:
