Any Fodorites in Paris Saturday, March 19th?
 

After my Alsatian expedition I'll be in Paris on Sat. March 19th.

Any one want to meet for an afternoon kir?

We Pgh-ers plan to be together that day; we'll raise our coffee cups to you and your trip!
Have a wonderful time.

I actually might be there, Indy. I'm waiting to find out if one of my clients has enough people for a cooking lesson/tour the day before. If so, I'm there and would thoroughly enjoy sharing a kir - well, not actually sharing the KIR, but sharing the moment;)

Hi indy!
We will have left by then, so I will have an Honorary Kir at home to toast you ((D))

Wish I were there! But I'll join everyone in a kir. I even have a teeny bottly of champagne in the fridg--might indulge in a kir royale!

(This IS going in my date book!)

David, my husband just brought me home a bottle of creme de cassis from his last European jaunt so the two of us will raise a glass of the good stuff and toast you! Wish we were in Paris again! We all had such a nice afternoon the last time we met you there. ((F))

This is another maybe rather than a yes. We'll be in Paris if we're not in Burgundy. If we're in town, we'd enjoy a kir and your company!

Yes, I'll be there. Would love a Kir Royale!

We cede to Sharon! Have a great afternoon.

Sounds like it could work out. :-)

SharonG we can meet and hopefully others can make it. Do you want to recommend a favorite establishment for a kir? I'm staying in the 1st so anyplace is fine with me.

I'll keep this topped occasionally so others may see it.

Of course we'd be honored to be included in a group!

At this point I'm not for sure if I'll be able to meet but please post the time and place in case I can break away. We leave the states on March the 3rd for spain and will end up in Paris and the husband and friends are returning on the 16th but i have family in Paris so will stay till the 22nd so as you can see I'll be in Paris so if I'm not with family I'll be there. Great idea.

I will be with SharonG, so count me in!

last year i met with some folks in paris at the weekly wine-tasting at a shop in the 6th. (the name escapes me, but i could find out.) it was loads of fun and a great place to hang out for a while. i think we even got a special champagne tasting!

however, meeting ANYWHERE in paris will be fabulous! i'll be there a few weeks later . . . :)

have fun!

Oh dear, I don't have a favorite place. Can anybody help us with that?

Well, it's not at all certain I'll even BE there, but the last time I did this we met at Les Editeurs and it worked out great. It's a hop, skip and a jump from the Odéon metro, the drinks were good, and some of us ended up having dinner there, which was quite good. Just a thought.

St.Cirq, if you tell us where that place is, it sounds great and I can be there.

It's mostly French but the menu is in English. That's under the "Cartes" tab.

Unfortunately the "acces" link doesn't bring up a map.

You can key their address into the pagesjaune site to bring up a very good map:

This works for me Sharon. It looks great. :-)

Let's go with this. I'll be there at 4:30pm for at least an hour. If you're running late don't worry.

Luckily that's the area I stayed in last time I was there. Not to mention got lost in. See you and anyone else who wants to come on the 19th!

Gee David, too bad it wasn't a week later. We will be in St Remy on the 19th celebrating my father's 85th birthday. We will be in Paris from the 23rd to the 27th.

Provence sounds wonderful AGM. I'm doing my Alsatian tour the week before the GTG: Reims, Nancy and Metz.

One of these cold winter trips I'm going to have to wise up and head south for a change. :-)

I hope Dave_in_Paris, StCirq, jlsayre and a few others can make it.

We went for a day trip to Reims in March. The cathedral is gorgeous. We went to our favorite champagne house-Lanson-and left reassured. They have 25 million bottles in their cellars!

Hey AGM. I was just going to do a day in Reims and move on until I found out how much there is there. A couple of nice sounding museums, the cathedral of course, and oh, the champagne. 25 million? That ought to last me. :-)

Aralynn and I hope to see you at Les Editeurs on the 19th!

It's a date! See you all on the 19th.

TTT

topping for David(indy)Wish I were going with you. We'd be wrecked!

Oh, two days too soon! The 19th is my sister's wedding day so while I'm toasting her on her big day, I'll whisper a secret toast to you fodorites in Paris! I will be in Paris on the 21st though...can't wait, can't wait, can't wait TO GO!!!

yes! We'll be there, but heading off to Brussels at some point that day--but who knows! taking it as it comes!
where will you be??
I'm still fishing around for a budget hotel, so don't know where our base is yet.

Unfortunately, my dad has to have major surgery on March 16 now, so I won't be heading to Paris this March after all.

I'll raise a verre de vin to you all from here, though!

St. Cirq, hope your Dad's surgery goes well.

StCirq I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad's need for surgery. I hope it goes really well.

Hi Indytravel,
We'll be in Paris Mar. 19........but i have a group of 6 so do you still want to share a kir? Jane00

Of course! The more the merrier.

I seriously doubt if enough of us gather to completely take over Les Editeurs. :-)

I second Indytravel's sentiments: the more the merrier. I'll be there with two crazy friends (the Tennessee Trio of Terror) so please come.

By the way jane00 here's an Ofoto link to my pictures from December.

No, I'm not the one behind bars! Though I did feel that way at the end of day at Angouleme's food festival. :-D

Sounds like fun. We will be in Paris that week, and hope to attend.

Woody

Hope to see you there Woody.
