Tokyo to Paris in Knox

Here’s the thing about Knoxville–it defies stereotypes.  You can eat incredible, exquisitely-prepared Japanese/Asian food with some good saké and tea in cozy little Kaizen, then take a few steps down the street and find the lovely French Market Crêperie, with its high ceilings, chandeliers, and an extensive menu of both savory and sweet crêpes, coffees, teas, wines, and French bistro atmosphere.  We were at the latter for coffee only, as the Japanese dishes were more than enough.  You almost forget you’re in Tennessee.  Anyway, thanks to my generous son for a beautiful erev birthday lunch.  Now we’re taking a siesta pre-cake and drinks.
