Vegan in Paris: day 2

The much touted Cafe Pinson in Marais required a one hr wait for dinner. A small restaurant, maybe 30 seats, and next to us were 2 American co eds at a table for 4 who were there when we first arrived and were there when we left. They had long stopped eating but were consumed with quizzing each other in French prepping for a test, presumably at a college nearby.  Girls, how do you say oblivious Americans in French?   Nell had black rice ratatouille and we had carrot soup. Just a note: they only had one vegan entree on the menu but luckily it was good.  As the cafe is gluten free, I cannot recommend the desserts.  I ordered a Madeleine and it ended up food for our local pigeons. Alors!
