“Care for a lunch while on the road? This vehicle parked near the front entrance of the Monoprix building will surely remind you of your grumbling stomach if ever you’ll pass by it. The white car printed with the name ‘Chevy’ on its sides and at the back would surely make you want to grab some succulent red meat for lunch. Meat dishes are wonderfully prepared in France that even this white, innocent looking car could convince you to eat right at that instant.” |
