maxpower: you want a MEXICAN restaurant in paris? then you didn't look very hard. www.pagesjaunes.fr could find it for you easily. There is a mexican AND tex-mex joint at place de la contrescarpe, and a few other ones throughout the student quartier.

try going to Monoprix or Nicolas for wine in france. and YES, you CAN find alsacian wine in those locations in provence..but you probably didn't try looking..you just complained instead.

and yes, the french DO have a sense of humor. they have to, to put up with the likes of you when you go to france.
