What happens when you sit six writers down and give them a prompt? Imaginations wander from ordinary to scandalous; love is lost and found; people change and futures launch. Bistro Bites showcases the creativity of the Columbia Writers along a common theme: La Madeleine, their bi-monthly haunt since 2010. This collection of short stories offers as much variety as LaMad's array of tasty morsels, down to the last sip of coffee and the final lick of the spoon.
