Lovely Pedestrian Shopping Street |
Passage de l'Yonne (at Gabriel Lame St.) Paris 75012 France |
Once wine storage facilities, these beautiful stone structures have been converted into shops and restaurants, making this all-pedestrian area a favorite with Parisians, especially on Sundays when most stores around the city are closed. With the humongous UGC-Ciné Cité Bercy multiplex at one end, the Cour Saint-Emilion features eateries (ranging from The Frog pub to the fancy Chai 33, with its adjacent first-rate wine boutique) as well as stores, from the ubiquitous Sephora to the Alice bookstore and even a spa, Ominsens. The neighboring park, with its tiny vineyard, is not to be missed on a sunny day. - Mary-Laure Neulat Review © 2007, Wcities |

Port de la Gare (en face de Bercy, quai François Mauriac) Paris 75013 France +33 1 45 84 41 71 http://www.damedecanton.com/ |
The name Dame de Canton (changed from Cabaret Pirate in 2008) encompasses an impressive range of possibilities: a Chinese-style yacht holds a restaurant and performance venue which transforms into a club animated by a live DJ after weekend concerts. At the restaurant, diners may choose à la carte or a formula including a meal and concert (EUR24-30). The concerts themselves are fascinating contemporary performances of music from around the world... swing and jazz, reggae, rock, afro beat, electronic music, ska, hip hop, tzigane and gypsy styles, dub, beat box, singers, and occasional events built around the music find a home at the Dame de Canton. In addition, children's programming (Wednesday afternoons: 2:45 p.m.) includes clown cabaret, musical theater, storytelling, and concerts. The boat may be rented for private events, and tickets are available online, by phone, or before the show. Review © 2007, Wcities |
