Improvisation performances in Paris

An explosive improvisation show

Last week, I was looking for an idea for an unconventional night out in Paris. I wanted to entertain myself and relax, I was looking over the plays that were going on in the area and then I came across an improvisation show that caught my curiosity.

It is the show TIME by the company Les Bradés which is currently playing at La Nouvelle Seine every Saturday at 9pm. The concept is simple, you come aboard the submarine of the "Troupe Immobile Mais Efficace" with the ultimate goal: to save the world in 1 hour chrono! To accomplish this mission, the actors use the topics given by the public presented in the form of microfilms. The spectators find themselves in the middle of an impossible investigation of which they are the indicators.

I was impressed by the overflowing imagination of the actors and their ability to bounce back on any subject, always with a lot of humour. I had a pleasant evening and I can only recommend this show!

Theatrical improvisation

As you know, I like going out to the theaters on a regular basis, I am fascinated by this living art that transports you to another world for the duration of a performance. On the other hand, I know little about theatrical improvisation. I discovered this discipline recently by attending an improvisation performance and I wasn't disappointed!

As you can imagine, there is no pre-written script or pre-defined setting here. The actors are therefore free to create a story and characters in real time, in front of a public. A subject is generally imposed on them. The main advantage of these performances is that each of these is unique because fully improvised. The result is surprising!

The inevitable
Saint-Germain-des-Prés

An artist’s haunt

In the heart of the 6th arrondissement, discover the timeless Saint-Germain-des-Prés district!

This neighborhood that I love so much is a true haunt of artists. The Beaux-Arts, the Orsay Museum, the Odeon Theater, the French Academy... Architecture and art lovers will be overwhelmed. 

There is so much to say about this neighborhood... literary cafes, workshops, prestigious addresses or antique dealers that give Saint-Germain-des-Prés a romantic atmosphere.

Discovering Saint-Germain-des-Prés while strolling is fabulous. The narrow streets, its old side, the typical architecture will allow you to spend pleasant moments.

A fabulous day

I remember an extraordinary day spent with a friend. We met at the Deux Magots, a must in the neighborhood. This typical Parisian cafe allows you to contemplate the animation of the Place Saint-Germain-des-Prés as well as its splendid church.

We were settled on their beautiful garden terrace. It was the month of June, the sky was deep blue, clear, cloudless, a perfect weather to enjoy the day!

We then strolled in the quiet alleys. It was a real journey back in time. The neighborhood has a special aura, the intellectual and artistic life reigns!

The Little Belt
of Paris

Get lost in Paris

Paris is a city with many faces that hide a large number of unusual places. I love the City of Lights for its diversity, whether human, cultural or architectural, I am constantly rediscovering the city dear to my heart, which never stops to surprise me. I love to get lost in the capital and let chance take me to places I didn't know before I discovered them.

It was last weekend during one of my weekly walks with a friend that I was able to discover the Little Belt of Paris. An old railway that amazed me, which I will now present to you.

The Little Belt, an atypical walk

The Little Belt, is an old railway track that has been abandoned since 1934. Its rails are now overgrown with flowers and greenery, bringing a rural feel to the heart of the city. From Porte d'Auteuil, walk in a real forest for 20 minutes that will make you forget that you are in Paris. Between the trees, the small path and the flowers, you will spend a unique moment far from the hustle and bustle of Parisian life. This small path, still unknown to most people, is the ideal place to relax.

At the exit of this greenway, towards the subway La Muette in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, you will discover La Gare, an unusual restaurant built in the former train station Passy-la-Muette. Between modern cuisine and refined decoration, this restaurant is the ideal place to relax and spend a good time with friends. With a large terrace, this trendy establishment is one of the neighbourhood's most popular places and a must-see at the end of your walk.

I therefore recommend this outing to anyone wishing to discover an atypical Paris for an afternoon between nature and relaxation.

The 2019 Chocolate Exhibition

The 2019 Chocolate Exhibition

A Supreme Art 

French chocolate, I consider it as a supreme art to be enjoyed without moderation!

We have always shown a keen interest in the know-how and tradition of the chocolate industry. French chocolate has something unique and singular. To make good chocolate, the Swiss have added milk, the Belgians sugar and pralines. In France, chocolate is intense, pure and slightly sweet. 

The Chocolate exhibition, which will take place from 30 October to 3 November 2019, will be an opportunity for me to discover the new chocolate trends of the year and to find refined and gourmet products.

Grape Variety And Terroirs 

Chocolate, I like to compare it to a product dear to the heart of the French, wine! 

Like wine, chocolate has a varied and incredibly rich range, making it very interesting to taste. Cocoa can be assimilated to grape varieties. There are various kinds of them that give very different aromas!

Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, the lands of these countries give the beans distinctive flavours. The planter, similar to the winegrower, brings quality and conservation through his care. Once they arrive in France, the beans are then passed into the hands of the chocolate makers for ultimate processing! 

We can compare Chocolate to Wine but it is also possible to marry them. Both products are the perfect match for the greatest pleasure of our taste buds!
