Food Scene

Great restaurant, with huge terrasse. Perfect when sunny (although rapidly crowed, of course). Dishes of the day are always good, fresh and quite cheap (10-15€).

Arts & Culture

Concert hall with great live music gigs. The building is interesting as it's inspired by Chinese which is rare in Paris. Jeff Buckley has played there for its world famous "Live from the Bataclan EP".
