I go to the flea market in St Ouen to look for old cameras and expired film. But it’s also a great place to see all the different walks of life from Paris’ extreme social scene. At the top of the ladder you’ve got the aristo-bourgeois crowd acquiring Louis XV furniture at the indoor antiques markets; the thirty-something bobo set paying way over the odds for mid-century designer chairs and formica tables; the banlieusards from the Neuf Trois getting kitted out with the latest sneakers and hoodies along the rue des Rosières; then at the very bottom you’ve got people trying to scratch a living selling second hand food at the Carré des biffes at Porte Montmartre. It’s an eye opener for sure.

A small cosy place with delicious seafood dishes.

This cinema is located in a modern part of the city. You won’t find any old buildings there and no tourists either. We love this place because it’s located just next to the « Bibliothèque National de France ». This place is huge and this kind of hugeness spaces are very unusual to find in Paris. When you place yourself in the middle of the 4 buildings and look up, it almost makes you dizzy because of the vastness of the place. We love it because it makes us feel free and at the same time completely overwhelmed by the space. Paris is one of the city in the world where you can find the more cinemas. And you have food trucks with nice food just in front of it to have a snack to enjoy a nice movie.

Furniture + Home store. Perfect place to find the perfect gift

We are very into French galettes (buckwheat crepes). But it’s important to know the good restaurants who make the good crepe batter because it makes all the difference. That’s why Bretons is one of our spot. You can find us there once a week at least.
