Scallops with bacon with butter sauce
Coquilles Saint-Jacques au lard. In the book "the Book about tasty and healthy life" Igor Guberman, the author of the famous "Garik", I read one amusing story. It happened "Once in France," in winter 1987 in Paris. On tour in Paris came to the Taganka theatre. Flew in from new York and Professor A. Shedrinsky, which many actors had a long-standing friendship and with whom, for obvious reasons, he has not seen after departure from Russia. He Guberman made a feast for the kids before the end of the tour in the restaurant "Munich". Was served a dish of scallops and oysters. After some time the waiter came to change the plates. He bent down and was surprised to see that the dish is empty, he glanced under the table, but... under the table there was nothing! With a puzzled expression on his face he looked again at the plates, then under the table, then again, and suddenly his eyes widened and he was horrified to look at customers. The Paris Garcon sees a lot of things in my life, but people eating molluscs with shells! - that he saw for the first time. Expect that something is going on, but could not figure out. What cause faint and dizzy waiter was lying in their pockets and purses of shell, they did not understand. The dish is cooked very easily and quickly, and most importantly - tasty and effective.
