Every Wednesday afternoon you can find me here. Sitting against the back wall, watching the world drift in and out, picking out the locals from the tourists, listening to the banter between the waiters as they rush around taking orders and flirting with the attractive women and men, making up stories about the people sitting together. It's warm outside. Why is that poor kid wrapped up in a jacket and scarf? Everyone at that table has got to be Italian. Except for the guy wearing baggy jeans. He's been talking on his phone and ignoring his dining companion since the moment they arrived. No wonder she looks so bored!  Those two are definitely American.

The couple in the corner who can't take their hands off each other either just met last night or are having a red-hot love affair. I also stop here because they make a mean  café serré.  Which isn't an easy thing

Quite simply a beautiful, peaceful  little place .

Some friends of mine need your help. They are a couple moving from the US who are looking for an apartment to rent in Paris for at least 1 year, starting in September, October or November 2014. Even though they have steady work, their dossier isn't very "strong" in the Parisian sense, so going through an agent will most likely be futile. And even though they are financially stable, they don't have enough money to put a year's worth of rent into an account as a guarantee. So I thought I would do my best to help them out and share what they need. Maybe someone I know or a friend of a friend is looking for long term renters who come with great references and a strong financial dossier? Hopefully? What they would like: 1 bedroom at least 30 square meters furnished (or even partly)   an elevator if higher than 1st floor (European) can be outside of Paris, but with access to the Metro, not the RER good light budget around €1000 a month, charges included would be preferr

1) Delicious teurgoule! 2) Farm produced fromage de chèvre infused with herbs, spices and aromatics 3) Oysters from  Isigny-sur-Mer 4) Fresh flowers for the table 5) Young spider crabs make their brief appearance between mid April and mid June
