Last week, friends of my parents called to ask me where they could find good jazz in Paris. I was able to direct them to one place I had been and was certain they could be recommended to others once they visited my selection. They reported back, that yes, indeed they had a great time […]
Party plans are going on in every bar and restaurant in Paris for one of the most celebrated festivites of the Fall. So,….better make your reservations as soon as you can, and don’t count on President Sarkozy to be one of the people celebrating! Mr. Sarko is a teetotaler in case you didn’t know. As a matter of […]
When people ask me what part of Paris is the best to stay in, my answer is always the same. The Latin Quarter, of course! (And no, it’s not a Latino neighborhood! I’ve been asked that, so don’t laugh!) The Quartier Latin got its name hundreds of years ago when Latin was an official language […]
Usually I prefer to write about restaurants in Paris that are good, or unique, but not that well-known. This time I thought I would write about some famous restaurants I’ve tried and as the title of this post says, won’t break the bank! Some are cheaper, others are more expensive, but none are like L’ Arpège, […]
What’s nice about having your own blog is being able to write what you want and I want to say that I am so proud of Geraldine! She has an amazing voice and her take on the hit song The Show Must Go On by the English rock band Queen is fantastic! Who would have thought that when she […]

World renown Gustavo Russo, is the director, choreographer, and first dancer of Tango Seducción, along with Samantha Garcia, and Alejandra Canepa, the singer, and the rest of the cast who give […]
Back in the 18th Century Montmartre was filled with more than thirty windmills. Today, however, only two are left. (And no, I’m not talking about the Moulin Rouge in Pigalle!) The Blute-fin and the Radet make up the Moulin de la Galette which has been immortilized by some of the most famous artists in the […]
If you’re thinking of coming to Paris soon, then you’re right in time for this year’s Nuit Blanche which takes place October 6! “Nuit blanche” (white night) is an expression meaning, “staying up all night.” More often than not it’s used in the context of “partying all night.” I mean, come on, we’re in Paris […]
