Guinguette: the anti-raindance


If you feel like going out of Paris in between the rainy spells, then why not go for a nostalgic trip to a Guinguette. Just 16 km south of Paris you can dance at the Seine riverside to the tunes of accordion music, enjoy a slice or two of the Auvergnate cuisine. So typical Parisian and yet a different world that is was almost forgotten until it was rediscovered as something hot and trendy. Maybe all the dancing and good food can not make the rain go away. But it will guaranteed get your spirits up and get you in shape for your summer slimsuit!

Every sunday in June: déjeuner Dansant with Guy Letur
