Paris – Fashion Break
There comes a time when you’re on your way to your 4th appointment of the day and you have 5 more to go… you say to yourself ”I need to sit down for a minute!”
Between our Stella McCartney and our John Galliano apointments, we found ourselves crossing Place Igor Stravinsky in the 4th in front of the Centre Pompidou-Beaubourg. There is an oasis that called to us… and we heeded that call. The CAFE BEAUBOURG which is run by le groupe Costes is a great cafe for a meal or just cafe and dessert. it’s designed by Christian de Portzamparc, a celebrated Parisian architect. The room is contemporary luxe and is a great time out from it all with a nice ambience.
This is what we manage to find on their extensive menu to soothe our weary souls…
Their ENORME PROFITEROLE.
This and the Mont Blanc at ANGELINA on rue de Rivoli in the 1st are two of my favorite things to visit in Paris.
