Footage emerges from the Palace of Versailles at last night's sickeningly opulent event with WEF Charles and Macron - These are the parasites pushing net zero and open borders and you into poverty.

Say what you want, the menu was exquisite:

blue lobster and crab followed by Bresse poultry and a gratin of cep (Porcini?) mushrooms prepared, respectively, by French chefs Anne-Sophie Pic and Yannick Alléno, both awarded three Michelin stars. The cheese course will feature France's Comté and Britain's Stichelton blue cheese. For dessert, world-famous pastry chef Pierre Hermé will prepare his rose macaroon cookie, composed of rose petal cream, raspberries and lychees.

Even so, I can think of one improvement: replace the macaroons with Macrons

Funny how we don't see any bugzz on that menu.

Lobsters and crabs are just large bugs — arthropods, if you want to be fancy.

I actually mentioned this at dinner out at a legacy French (irony alert!) place last Sunday- somehow, dealing with yucky biting bugs at home came up with the other guests and scorpions were discussed...

Another made a vague observation- as two of us were eating shellfish main dishes- that they look like lobsters to her, just on land...

Shocked reactions, dismissal... then me piping up with Yes, they are both bugs, like these shrimp on my plate too- all shellfish are bugs that live in salt water.

Her husband then snorted out a laugh as dead silence reined.

Gotta say though, OUR French meal was hella nicer than the above one:

Miniature fresh baked loaves of sweet french bread and fresh butter

Baked Bellini mushroom caps with a Gruyere and herbs stuffing in melted butter base and fresh tarragon on top

Fresh scallops and coast shrimp roasted with butter, cream and Monterey Jack cheese in scallop shells

Parchment wrapped salmon with a delicate dilled butter baste

Slow roasted beef ribs, tomato puree and honey glaze

Yellow baby potatoes au gratin with a heavy cream base

Saffron Basmati rice with herbs.

Fresh garden baby carrots, zucchini, and red bell pepper, julienned then steamed tender and drizzled with herbed butter

And desserts.... an entire patisserie of fresh made authentic rich choices!

Everyone chose 2 from the case, lol, and somehow no duplicates at the table. Macaroons? Bah! Nothing so simple 😹😉

Sparkling water, a Mty County bright Chardonnay, and a sweet Rosè rounded things off.

Better yet- even with high local taxes and my adding a very generous 35% tip my total was just $60 💃 in our massively inflationary prices for food or meals out era.
