We are often asked to name our favorite cafés in Paris and this one always tops the list! Although, since it is our apartment, it is a private dining venue. :)
Recently, I styled and photographed a brunch at one of our balconies. I would say that this is definitely a fantasy shoot as we certainly don’t eat like this normally!
Whenever you have petit dejeuner in France, the juice is always fresh squeezed, and grapefruit juice is as common as orange. It’s the perfect tart accompaniment to what can be an overload of sweet treats. And it makes a very refreshing mimosa.
The chairs are a grey and pink toile that I purchased from an antique dealer a few years ago. French chairs tend to be small and low so these are just right for our balcony-sized bistro tables.
I hope this has provided some inspiration for a weekend treat in your own special café!
À bientôt!

I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Cate! Happy August and I hope you’ll be back in Paris soon. xx
Dear Georgianna, I’ve a little story to share … for various reasons Paris was never on my bucket list until last summer, that was my very first visit. Upon my return, I purchased an oversized balcony picture from you that makes me feel like I look out from a Paris window every day. I’ve returned to Paris twice this year and I’m head over heels … Paris makes me cry and thanks for sharing these beautiful pictures.
