Fashionable and amusing-- what more can you ask for? Like that book cover too.
ReplyDeleteThat is so wonderful- I cannot imagine a restaurant or bar saying the same today.
ReplyDeleteThe little loop of street that is Place Pigalle is full of pharmacies and xxx peep show places. Too bad this classy place didn't survive.
