You know it's summer when you have apéros at Palais Royale...
We've been experiencing sweltering heat this summer. Imagine, not too long away we were complaining that summer hasn't come fast enough, and now we're complaining about it coming in too strong..., oh well!
Apéros at Palais Royale
About 3-years ago our friend Mehran and Anne wanted to do something to celebrate our long summer nights. It typically does not get dark in Paris until 10:30 or sometimes 11 at night in the summer. We're on the same latitude as Montreal, if you can believe that, who knew?So, what started as basically 4-people blossomed into a traditional summer event attended by a diverse group of people, young and old, gay and straight, musicians and artists, ex-pats and the internationals and the crowd can be as small as 5-people or as large as 40-people... Ah, what a wonderful diverse world we live in. The original rule was that one must bring their own glass, typically a champagne glass, and a bottle of bubbly to share. Since 2008, we've evolved and now we're bringing in hors d'oeuvres and various drinks and sometimes even whole meals, go figure? All-in-all it's a fabulous event.

So, if you're in Paris, we meet at the fountain at 7 pm typically once a week, please join us, just send me an email and I can give you the dates.
