The gallery and bookshop never disappoint a curious mind, but the café is worth the trip alone.

Jardin du Palis-Royal - 1780  Secret place. Between the Louvre and the Place de la Concorde, a wonderful french-style garden. In the 1780’s, Philippe IV of Orleans (later named “Philippe Egalité” ) acquired the whole place. Extravagant and overly indebted, he decided to build shops around his gardens and rent them out. Convinced by the idea of having a theatre, the Duke thus decided to build the “Comédie française”.

Old building of funeral parlour that became in 2008 the 104, a place dedicated to creation. Artists workshops, concerts, exhibitions, theater, bars, restaurants, bookshop and also Emmaüs…

Paperboy has a very cool and friendly atmosphere. You get fresh food and very delicious sandwiches! Perfect shop to have lunch after exploring the neighborhood.

After a long day exploring Paris, a huge plate of noodles is basically the dream. Le Chef Thai is small and cosy, although I think they have a downstairs too which we didn’t see. It’s really relaxed inside and filled with plants so there was a nice calming energy. The guy that served us was super-friendly and we all had an excellent feed for a reasonable price. Happy days.
