For a drink in the early evening…
Le Bar Artisan… It’s the new spot imagined by Frédéric Le Bordays, a good place to savor a “Green Beast” cocktail made of Pernod absinthe; it’s an ultra cozy, welcoming place, just as we like… I love the very authentic vibe and the crowd, which is very eclectic but “bon esprit”.
