BOUTIQUES OF MONTORGUEIL

tom — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 10:00:24 +0000

The area around Sentier, Etienne Marcel and leading all the way up to Les Halles is, in my opinion, one of the best shopping districts in Paris. Here one can find a wide selection of stores offering trendy street fashion for men women and even kids. There are also several famous ‘fripperies’ or thrift shops like Kiliwatch and EPISODE or the smaller ones like Le Troc de Montorgueil. When looking for unique pieces or if you’d like to stroll and window shop on a sunny Saturday afternoon, Montorgueil is a great location. Below are my favorite boutiques in the area.

FRENCHIE

tom — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 23:35:54 +0000

Who can open a small restaurant on a nearly forgotten street with a few simple menu items, charge below average prices and make every single customer walk out of the door satisfied? Gregory Marchand can. After a long time abroad, working with the likes of Jamie Oliver, he came back to Paris and set up shop in the bustling Montorgueil district. In his small restaurant he proposes fresh and flavorful meals to unpretentious crowds looking for a relaxed and delicious meal.

Reservations highly recommended!

EXPERIMENTAL COCKTAIL CLUB

tom — Mon, 11 May 2009 12:12:05 +0000

Presentation

They understand the true meaning of cocktail.

France is known for its wines but when it comes to cocktails…yes, in a fine martini glass iced before use… yes, with proper ingredients properly shaken…yes, not watered down by one lone ice cube floating desperately to stay alive…this gourmand nation seems to be still learning how to properly pronounce the word.

Several Paris establishments, though, are quickly mastering the art of cocktails and the ‘Experimental’ easily competes for the top spot.

Bartenders are true maestros here, professional in their demeanor and execution. On the menu are classics with a twist. Try a “blend of torn lemongrass stock, organic elderflower and lemon juice freshly squezed along with a premim vodka; better with a london dry gin” as recommended by Romee, one of the owners. Once you have your martini in hand, you can proceed to mingle with a rather hip international crowd and groove to the guest dj. The boudoir rustic chic decor completes the ambiance. If it becomes too crowded, the centrally located, Montorgueil district, has many other bars to have fun in, just stick to a mojito or a beer.
