Theme Day: Yellow

A collage of four pictures in one for this month's theme day! This is the "Sisters Café", an American restaurant, great for Sunday brunch but also whenever you're feeling a bit peckish, ideally situated near the theatre and one of the main palace grounds entrances. The pancakes and burgers are excellent and the whole place is... yellow!
This post is of course dedicated to Todd who ought to laugh at the sight of French's mustard!

Un petit collage de quatre photos en une pour illustrer le thème du mois. Voici le "Sisters Café", un restaurant américain qui sert de bons brunchs le dimanche, mais aussi et entre autres pancakes, d'excellents hamburgers pour les petites (et grosses) faims. Il est idéalement situé près du théâtre et de l'une des principales entrées du parc du château. Tout y est jaune !

Good job, CQ. It took me awhile to absorb all the information, but I think that next time in Versailles I shall have to eat at the Sisters Cafe...or not. I hate to waste time eating in an American restaurant with all those beautiful French cafes around!

This is very creative and cleverly done. The yellow really pops out of the image.

Sally said...

Would just love to have a burger there. Just looks so inviting.

I like your collage and your choice for theme day ... it is so well done that at first I did not realize it was a collage ... happy theme day.

Karen said...

Wonderful! I used the mustard for today, too. Great minds think alike.

Yellow is such a warm and comforting color and I'm sure a nice addition to the comfort food served here. So very glad you've got French's Mustard in France -:) Happy theme day!

Idéal pour les jours gris!

raf said...

Love it, Ciel. More mustard than ketchup works for me. Looks just right for a quick burger stop, no matter where in the world are.

Olivier said...

comme ça, quand tu es en manque de soleil, un petit détour dans se restaurant ;o))

Jilly said...

Looks a fun place and such a burst of colour in your collage.

Catherine said...

Whouaaaah ! C'est comme dans une BD !
Dis donc, on abuserait pas un peu sur la mayo ? Slurp ! Pas grave un coup de Pchiiiit. Et ça repart.
C'est parfait, rigolo, et original pour le Yellow thème. J'adore.

J'avais repeint la cuisine de mes parents dans ce jaune associé à du vert pomme ! Remarque ils avaient une super forme dès le petit déj !
Les chinois préfèrent le rouge, je m'en rends compte grâce à mon amie chinoise notamment.

Carraol said...

Great collage of this place full of yellows, perfect for this theme. It looks interesting!

Cergie said...

Ton montage est troublant ; ce pourrait être une photo avec des facettes (miroirs, étagères, perspective) de ce restaurant.

EG CameraGirl said...

Tons and tons of yellow!

VP said...

I like the place, the idea, the photos and the montage. Great choice.

Great choice for yellow theme day. As Americans, when traveling abroad, we like to eat local food, but after three weeks in China, when we reached Hong Kong we went to the Hard Rock Cafe (for the only time in our lives) so I could have a burger and Julie could have some nachos and guacamole.

Retro Yellow. Tres chic.

Petrea Burchard said...

Wow! Wonderful.

Clueless in Boston said...

Juergen Kuehn said...

Dave said...

I like the top right picture with the guy tucking into his meal and reflected in the mirror.

Shantaram said...

Oooh, so many yellows! Nice collage for the theme day!!

Anonymous said...

Mellow yellow!

Bergson said...

si le hamburger est jaune est il assez cuit ?

crocrodyl said...

So many yellow things:) Great shot!

GreensboroDailyPhoto said...

You get the award (of course there isn't really an award) for the most interesting word used today! peckish!

Virginia said...

Pat said...

love the pic of French's Mustard. Thanks for visiting the Chandler Daily photo. Today is April Fools day. Do you celebrate that in France? So, the beach was to fool people. We really don't have ocean front property in Arizona.

Pat said...

I just learned that April Fools day was started in France. "Poisson d'Avril" or something like that.

I'll have to check out your blog. My wife and I went to Versailles many moons ago. It was the only organized tour we took in France and it was packed with bus loads of people. Sadly, as we had to get back on our bus, so did everyone else and the palace was empty. Next time, we go it alone.

Un beau jaune moutarde pour mettre sur le Hamburger!!
OU un joli petit bout de beurre pour laisser fondre sur le pancake!!!

Lisa Wilson said...

Looks like a very bright and cheery place to be!

slim said...

What a great find! The French's mustard is a great touch.

Sharon said...

I love the yellow. Feels like spring.
