The entire class and significant others were invited to dinner by Iéseg for dinner at this restaurant, l'Omnia. As you can see, it has the coolest entrance to any restaurant I've seen in a long time. The above picture is actually the corridor to go into the restaurant.
The interior of the restaurant also had its own interesting flare to it. As we were informed by our place mats,
"L'omnia is a former theater dating back to the XIXth century. As early as 1850, this place was a cabaret, which soon became a brothel where a large number of our ancestors living in Lille, and its surrounding areas, visited at least once... or even more. The history of the place in the recent years is also known to many! In the 1980s, it housed the Omnia, a large theater which quickly specialized in pornographic movies. This porno theater was the biggest and the last to close down in the North region."
It was a wonderful way to end the semester, but it was also quite sad - as this was the time when most of us were saying our good-bye's to each other. Many of us were leaving for Christmas break - whereas I was leaving in two days to begin my internship in Nice.
Alas, we shall meet again in April! Looking forward to seeing all of you!
