Paris Undercover

Bonjour tout le monde!
Tonight I'm putting together my itinerary for the upcoming trip to Paris in May and found a great list at Trip Advisor's Off the beaten path.

Each trip is different since each client her passion and I love to go to new places every time I visit. I've still only hit the tip of the berg in every way and I've been around.

One place I've yet to hit is the Paris Antique Book Market , un marché couvert ouvert tous les weekends de l’année! (You don't mind if I work on my French do you)?
That's every single weekend and here's the lowdown:

Antique Book Market
Square Georges Brassens

104, rue Brancion, 75015 Paris
Saturday & Sunday from 9.30 am to 6.00 pm
Metro: Convention or Porte de Vanves



Another of today's discoveries was a vineyard right at the top of Montmartre! Now that should be some good fun!

On another note, I've heard about this place but have never been, and still not sure about going! have you?
I'd love to hear your thoughts।

Ohhhh Claudia, your new blog is so beautiful. I'm up for the ride and can't wait to see what's next!

Wow! This is a real party! I want to be there for sure! This is the most whimsical, it's like Alice and Wonderland! I heard this burned last year and very little of the store and animals were saved. I wanted to go but lost time. The new owner is A Prince. I read in Vanity Fair they were taking donations of our special friends as so many of them burned in the fire. Can I borrow this picture?

Hi ladies! So glad you could make the party!!
Darling of course you can use the pic!

I adored going to Deyrolles, a real Paris treasure from the past but would you believe that it burned down? There are rumors that the owner set it on fire. It broke my heart. There was a garden store in Palais Royal called Prince Jardiner that had some of the animals but I am not sure if it is still there.

Wow, you know there's a hell of a story waiting to be told there!

So, forgive me for being out-of-the-loop or confused:), but are you "leading" this trip in Paris in May (meaning, others are invited?) If so, what is the length of this trip?

à la parisienne said...

Oh, and merci pour le commentaire sur mon blog (about vintage fashion)!

The Paris Apartment said...

Hi Parisienne, I do have a couple of clients coming but the invite was for you all to come just for fun!

Claudia, Angela here (Joy's daughter/Nic's sister) love the new blog!!!
Wanted to invite you over to see my daughter's bedroom and soon, my room, inspired by one of yours many years ago. Thought you'd enjoy!
Heard maybe you're coming to town? Before or after Paris???
