wine in a baby's bottle!
 
I thought I heard everything when I read about the restaurant that serves food in the dark brought to you by blind waitors, now I read of a place in Monmartre, "Le refuge des Fondu," Wine is served to you in a baby's bottle.

At least they're not offering drunk wet-nurses!

I have heard of people doing things like a baby would, but I don't get it?
I think those people have mommy issues.

I heard of that a long time ago -- I thought there was a place in the Latin Quarter that did that, also, but I don't know which was first.

It's really stupid but appeals to teenagers or college students.

In the book <i>Almost French</i> (that's the one by the Australian journalist who marries a Frenchman), the author (can't remember her name) mentions going to this place. I think it was this one in Montmartre. She mentions busloads of tourists.

As if wine needs a gimmick. . .

I believe the only wine served here is from young vines.

The one in Montmartre only holds 30 people at two long tables.
