Moules and Mâcon

No fuss, just a very good Friday.

A big bowl of mussels, a pile of golden frites and a glass of Mâcon.

The wine is a 125 glass, and your mussels arrive with a finger bowl, because a bowl of mussels is never tidy.

Mâcon is a white Burgundy, and a classic partner for mussels.

It’s the kind of lunch or supper you can drift into on a Friday and not rush out of.

Dip a frite into whatever’s left in the bowl, and call it the start of the weekend.
