<span style="font-family: "corbel";">New Zealand is a quirky place, with some memorable place names. Ever heard of Waipu? Why not? </span><span style="font-family: "corbel";">What about Cape Foulwind, the closest cape to neighbouring Australia?</span><span style="font-family: "corbel";"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "corbel";">
<br />
Matamata is another Kiwi town that has made a name for itself. This small rural settlement at the base of the Kaimai Ranges was used as the location for Hobbiton in the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. Thankfully, New Zealand isn’t only known for its beautiful <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWf3iJjqYCM" target="_blank">Middle Earth</a> landscapes - our neighbours across the Tasman also have some damn fine coffee.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "corbel"; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "corbel"; text-align: center;">It should thus come as no surprise that you can find some damn fine coffee at Matamata Coffee in rue d’Argout, Paris 2ème.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "corbel";">
<br />
Franco-Kiwi couple Gaël and Leigh Soucasse, along with their barista friend Gérald Arékonamand, kicked things off in September 2014 after dabbling in specialty coffee for a few years. The three out-of-towners (Gaël and Gérald being from Toulouse and La Réunion respectively) have done an excellent job in creating a great café with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Seating 10-15 upstairs and more downstairs, it’s a great place to come for breakfast, lunch or for an afternoon pick-me-up. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "corbel"; text-align: center;">The place was actually such a hit when it opened that the the Mayor of Matamata, Jan Barnes, wrote to the owners to express her and the town's delight at the prospect of being the namesake of a trendy Parisian café. See for yourself when you go there: the letter's up in the bathroom.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: corbel;">Folks and Sparrows, one of the latest additions to Paris’ 11th-arrondissement coffee scene, makes an effort to delight a visitor’s every sense. And delight them it does. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Instantly upon entering the premises, you are greeted by the sweet smell of cinnamon and the serenading sound of calm country music. They permeate the café and set the scene for the enjoyable experience to follow. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiapWfJnuZvNfLMW0_cSw-FNwlJfbeNJFs79TNVR1PnZD6L466bW6VdmGjZQjlTnnnfAlE19zg8YE6nkuBuZZVje27SnZIfmtqLS9JWjtDkyn22nK3J3X6zea2OVSbKcIXVsyVALXjsL4fs/s1600/folks3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiapWfJnuZvNfLMW0_cSw-FNwlJfbeNJFs79TNVR1PnZD6L466bW6VdmGjZQjlTnnnfAlE19zg8YE6nkuBuZZVje27SnZIfmtqLS9JWjtDkyn22nK3J3X6zea2OVSbKcIXVsyVALXjsL4fs/s320/folks3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">The décor and design of the interior are exceptional; the subtle, minimalist layout means that it is the customers and the produce that fill the room with colour. I like that. The space itself certainly perpetuates the rustic feel that the owner, Franck, envisioned after drawing inspiration from his days as the manager of a Brooklyn restaurant and his time spent in upstate New York. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">The pattern on the flooring is like a 3D optical illusion, making you feel like you have tumbled into some culinary wonderland. But rest assured, this is all real.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">In any case, while the spirit of the café is certainly something to get excited about, it’s the coffee that does the talking. The Lomi beans, crafted into a customised Folks and Sparrows blend, more than satiate your appetite for caffeine. Leaning against the cool, stone wall of what seems like an ancient Parisian wine cellar, you feel like you are partaking in an age-old ritual, quietly contemplating the richness of the beverage at each sip. Nice.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Besides the coffee, Folks and Sparrows is home to a wide range of succulent edibles, like their own twist on the classic jambon-fromage, consisting of Prince de Paris ham (the best in the land, legend has it), Conté, Violette de Brive mustard and red pepper vinegar. It sounds fancy, but when it’s in full gustative harmony with your taste buds, it’s so beautifully simple. So simple, and so tasty. Other options include soups, bagels and tarts, both sweet and savoury. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">One of the highlights of this memorable place is the strikingly symmetrical shelf arrangement, to your left as you walk in. Stocked with produce from lands far and near, this impressive display boasts such exoticisms as Jamaican rum, Wisconsin(ian?) steel-cut oats, and Portuguese sardines. Coupled with the pickles, cheese, jams and drinks in the glass display cabinet, the mini-épicerie at Folks and Sparrows will keep you intrigued during your visit.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Oberkampf is one of Paris' prime nightspots, home to a host of bars and clubs that bring the neighbourhood to life at sunset and to a swift, drunken demise shortly thereafter.

<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Affectionately referred to as "Le Cerf", <i>Thank You, My Deer</i> <span style="font-family: Corbel;">opened in 2013 after its Slovakian founders recognised a distinct lack of gluten-free dining options in Paris. While I, like </span><a href="http://www.theguardian.com/books/2012/sep/28/lets-start-foodie-backlash" style="font-family: Corbel;" target="_blank">Steven Poole</a><span style="font-family: Corbel;">, have my reservations about those who have reservations about gluten, there is certainly just cause for its development in France, and more particularly in Paris. An increasingly experimental local population, coupled with the presence of fussy tourists and expats, means that the French can no longer turn their noses up at gluten-free dining. Besides, given that there actually </span><i style="font-family: Corbel;">are</i><span style="font-family: Corbel;"> coeliacs in France, it's high-time someone stood up for them in the face of the boulangerie bullies, taunting them at every corner. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">The lunch menu changes weekly, with prices ranging from 4-9€ for soups, salads and sandwiches, while the sweet pastries and cakes go for around 2.50-4.50€ a pop. On Saturdays and Sundays, a mere 20€ will buy you an outrageously copious brunch, consisting of a freshly-pressed fruit juice, a bowl of granola (or soup in winter), two open sandwiches, some salad, a coffee and a dessert, all homemade. I don't think I've ever heard of such brunch-time madness. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">There are some places that fill you with an instant and effortless sense of coolness as soon as you walk in the door. Boot Café is one such place. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">This bright blue hole-in-the-wall espresso bar o</span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">pened in early-2014 in the northeast Marais, an area with a growing number of decent coffee shops. Built into an old cobbler’s shop, the minuscule café consists of only three low tables, tucked neatly into the walls. The décor is reminiscent of a sunkissed California, with black and white photos of ‘50s surfers and an eclectic assortment of postcards lining the walls.
<br /><br />
A lone barista, Lloyd, selects the tunes on his music device, lining up an appropriate soundtrack of the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-0CS-T1HUQ" target="_blank">Beach Boys</a> as he greets me with a smile and a hearty <i>bonjour</i>. After I order my coffee, it is understood that, not only are we both not French, but we are both Australian - an increasingly unsurprising discovery in the specialty coffee scene in Paris. </span><span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><span type="Corbel">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br />Despite the size, the café sees no lack of business. It handles customers comfortably, as the clientele arrives in small but regular numbers throughout the day. Lloyd, a former Lockwoodian, describes the harmonious cycle of service that exists between Boot Café and the surrounding bars: “The barmen wake up late in the afternoon, and come in for a coffee before they start work. Then when we finish at the café, the baristas go to the bars and are served by those same barmen”. I like that.
<br /><br />
Throughout the conversation, I sip slowly on my café crème, crafted on the Marzocco from a Peru-Burundi blend provided by Belleville Brûlerie. It’s right on point, and I’m happy.
<br /><br />
The highlight of my visit comes when Lloyd offers me a coconut after I finish my coffee. This seems to suit the exotic theme quite well, so I accept, and watch as he surgically pierces the coconut's solid shell with a battery-powered drill. After finishing the fruit’s refreshing contents, I am directed to smash the coconut onto the footpath, which I do with great enthusiasm. Lloyd then washes the shattered pieces and serves them in a bowl for me to eat.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Besides smashed coconut and a small selection of sweets, Boot's food menu also includes a Jamaican-style escovitch (10€) and an omelette (7.5€). Sunday is savoury congée brunch-time, going for 7.5€ and topped with an impressive array of spices and seasonings, which all conspire to transport your tastebuds to a tropical elsewhere. The standout item on the breakfast menu is the granola, provided by our old mate Emperor Norton. (I sometimes wonder what cafés in Paris would do without their beloved Emperor).</span><span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><span type="Corbel">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br />If there's any doubt left in your mind about the coolness of Boot Café, let it be known that they recently offered a week's worth of free coffee to anyone who could come in and rap an entire Biggie Smalls verse, on the occasion of the BK rapper's birthday. What a damn shame that I was out of town when that was happening, since, thanks to my visit to Boot Café, I just might have been cool enough to win it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Corbel; text-align: justify;">I must admit: I spent most of my summer in Paris strolling around the beautiful gardens of the Palais Royal with a Café Kitsune sorbet in hand. But I wasn’t the only one. I promise. </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">After the successful launch of <a href="http://www.timeout.jp/en/tokyo/venue/19767/Caf%C3%A9-Kitsun%C3%A9" target="_blank">its first café in Tokyo</a>, fashion, music and lifestyle brand Maison Kitsune has ventured into the ever-expanding Parisian coffee scene. </span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">Since its opening in </span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">early 2014, tourists and locals alike have flocked to Café Kitsune for the great coffee and good vibes. Being very central, Kitsune is an ideal place to stop for a caffeine fix while sightseeing or <a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/l%C3%A8che-vitrine" target="_blank">window-licking</a> in the 2ème. It’s a stone’s throw from the Louvre and is situated in an impeccable location, right amongst the boutique arcades of the Jardin du Palais Royal. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">On the inside, the café boasts a stylish, clean aesthetic, although with limited seating. It compensates for this with an ode to the Italian coffee tradition: a beautiful long counter to lean against while sipping on an espresso. </span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">Behind the coffee machine, you’ll find local and international baristas who serve up coffee from the London-based Workshop Coffee Co. </span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">The folks at Kistune have also got the juice game covered, serving a range of Bob’s Cold Press juices, from regular fruit juices to bottles of healthy green stuff, which people these days seem to enjoy. Finally, much to the delight of the </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4jMWWEjH9E" style="font-family: Corbel;" target="_blank">residents of South Park</a><span style="font-family: Corbel;">, Café Kitsune is also a gluten-free safe haven, serving tasty pastries and cakes from the cleverly-named </span><a href="http://www.noglu.fr/" style="font-family: Corbel;" target="_blank">Noglu</a><span style="font-family: Corbel;">.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Like a lot of new cafés in Paris, Kitsune isn’t just about nice coffee. It’s about nice things in general, served by nice people in a </span><i style="font-family: Corbel;">really </i><span style="font-family: Corbel;">nice location, all in the heart of a nice city.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">(As far as the sorbet goes, it’s a summer specialty, so you’ll have to wait a few months before you can freeze your brain with that tasty stuff).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: corbel;">It’s only been a few weeks since I packed my bags and left my Scandinavian motherland, but as I step through the doors of this café, it feels like I’m already back home.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">“Hi, welcome to Clint!” The warm welcome is extended by Xavier, one of the three owners of Clint, a combined café-restaurant-épicerie located but a stone's throw from </span><a href="https://goo.gl/maps/IB5L5" style="font-family: corbel;" target="_blank">the resting place </a><span style="font-family: corbel;">of our old mates Oscar Wilde and Joseph Fourier.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: corbel;">It’s the colourful and minimalistic interior décor, the rustic but sleek wooden tables, and that familiarly enchanting smell of freshly ground coffee beans that take me back to my Swedish homeland, where specialty coffee has been celebrated for many years.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Karim, another proprietor of this fine establishment, works magic on the Marzocco as he serves me a smooth, full-bodied cappuccino decorated with stylish latte art. If his experience at La Caféothèque hadn’t already guaranteed a memorable cup, his dedication to the good coffee cause certainly did. Like many other baristas in this business of beans, Karim strives to exceed the expectations of an increasingly refined Parisian coffee palate, while spreading the good word to the unconverted. Their blend comes from our friends at Belleville Brûlerie and changes monthly, just to keep things interesting.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Besides excellent coffee, Clint offers all manner of other beverages (Brooklyn Lager on tap in Paris, whodathunkit?) and full à la carte dining from dawn till dusk, with prices ranging from 6-10€ for entrées and 15-20€ for mains. Lunchtime is a bit more cost-effective, with mains going for 12€ and set menus for 15-18€. Once you’re done with your meal, mosey on over to the épicerie section to see Clint’s fine array of quality goods and funky knickknacks.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Karim, Xavier and Gary have each brought their respective dreams to fruition through Clint. Between the café, the restaurant and the épicerie, the three owners have delivered an eclectic setting in which to appreciate all things fine.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;">This is an interesting and symbolic place that deserves something of a special mention.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">First, we'll be clear on one thing: Belleville Brûlerie is not really a café. It is a micro-roaster (b</span><i style="font-family: corbel;">rûlerie </i><span style="font-family: corbel;">is an old French word for 'roaster'</span><span style="font-family: corbel;">), open to the public on Saturdays, that provides beans to a number of specialty coffee joints in Paris. If you're after a Williamsburg latte or a Melbourne macchiatto then you're out of luck: all you'll find here is espresso and brewed coffee. They don't even stock milk.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Thomas Lehoux, David Flynn and Anselme Blayney (of Ten Belles, Télescope and Le Bal, respectively) opened up shop in September 2013 following an apparent desire to move further into the bean sourcing and roasting realms of the specialty coffee world.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">At 11:30 on Saturday mornings they run "initiation to coffee" cupping sessions for up to 8 people (</span><a href="http://cafesbelleville.com/products/cupping-degustation-de-cafe" style="font-family: corbel;" target="_blank">bookings</a><span style="font-family: corbel;"> essential). These will set you back 20€, but come with a complementary bag of Belleville beans. Attendees are advised not to eat or drink beforehand, as this supposedly ensures the highest degree of sensitivity to the subtleties of each coffee variety being sampled. For the rest of the day, espresso and brewed coffee (filter, Chemex and other pour-over styles) are available for around 4-5€.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">In this sense, Belleville Brûlerie isn't the kind of place you can quickly pop by for a caffeine hit before carrying on with your day. Instead, you go there to appreciate the unique flavour and complexity of the </span><a href="http://cafesbelleville.com/collections/cafes" style="font-family: corbel;" target="_blank">myriad different coffee beans on offer</a><span style="font-family: corbel;">, and to share the experience with other enthusiasts, who range from the humbly curious to the intimidatingly well-informed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">So besides the intimate and inspiring coffee experience you can have there, what is so important about this place?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: corbel;">
</span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Everything about Belleville Brûlerie epitomises a significant aspect of specialty coffee not only in Paris, but around the world.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Firstly, its location in an ever-gentrifying, former working class district of the French capital reflects the role that coffee plays in transforming the urban landscape of large cities. It's always amazing to see how quickly trendy espresso bars appear once a working-class neighbourhood is injected with a dose of young, creative middle-class urbanites.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Secondly, the owners' diverse backgrounds attest to the global-ness of the movement. People might bicker over the origins of the so-called 'third wave', but at the end of the day, it doesn't really matter where it started. What matters is where it is now.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">These days, the essence of specialty coffee is basically removed from physical geography. It exists in its own little hybrid world: a beautiful blend of online social networks and trendy pockets of urban centres, uniting passionate coffee fiends from all over the globe.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">The all-encompassing, holistic term of 'specialty coffee' manifests on many levels. There are the innovations in roasting, extraction and brewing methods, as coffee geeks rediscover the old and pioneer the new. There is the promotion of fairer trade arrangements and closer contact with growers, which is coupled with a greater interest in the geographical origin of the contents of one's coffee cup. There is even a sort of aesthetic standard for cafés that deal in specialty coffee. Whether it's the rustic, minimalistic wooden or bare-brick interiors; the stylish ephemera and quirky bric-a-brac; the felt letter boards; the clipboard menus; the tattooed, bewhiskered baristas; juice served in jars; the elegant simplicity of the logo, or maybe the plain black façade, there's always something that links your local espresso joint to another one on the other side of the world.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">
</span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The very inception of Belleville Brûlerie is indicative of the momentum that third-wave coffee has gathered in Paris. A trip there will teach you about more than just the coffee you're drinking: it will tell you something about the past, present and future of specialty coffee in Paris.</div>

<span style="font-family: corbel; text-align: justify;">Paris is a tricky city for a foreigner: t</span><span style="font-family: corbel; text-align: justify;">here are many nuances that people like me will never understand. For example, coming from Australia, I am consistently misled by morning weather in Paris, which is never really predictive of the day to come. One particularly cloudless Saturday morning informed me that it was not a day for a jacket, and that it was also a great opportunity to venture out to visit a café in the 10th arrondissement, so I donned my exploring t-shirt and sunglasses and was out the door.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel; text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel; text-align: justify;">Thirty minutes later, leaving the densely populated Canal St. Martin, I start strolling down Rue du Faubourg St. Martin, still enjoying the sun on my face. But there is something about this road that is immediately surprising, namely that, on a Saturday at lunchtime, there are about four shops open on this entire street. Have I just stumbled across some strange back-end area, which allows for brief, yet silent refuge from the bustling streets and passages on either side? I find out later on that this street contains a large number of African style hair salons (cornrows a-plenty), and malls populated primarily by Indian expats. Really Paris, what’s the deal? </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel; text-align: justify;">Nevertheless, buried in this void, we find the awesomely understated <b>Blackburn Café</b>, content in its isolation and home to some excellent coffee. The part owner and barista, Sofiane, tells me that he relishes in the strange location, as the shop is a challenge to find, yet extremely close to a large number of popular areas in Paris, thus earning the title of the café just around the corner. He describes his coffee ethos while meticulously preparing my café crème over a period of minutes, and I realise that everything about this café, including the location, has been carefully selected to produce a certain effect, one that works very successfully. This effect is visible in the simple design, the choice of music, and even the coffee itself. I feel as if everything is slightly shifted away from the usual, however in such a way and to such a degree that it all seems to balance effortlessly.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel; text-align: justify;">It is this balance that allows customers to select their Blackburn experience. Coffee is à la demande (by request), with an interesting variation in the beans, which have origins as diverse as Indonesia, Ethiopia and Salvador. There are several seating options depending on how much conversation is desired, and sections for reading and laptop work. I am at the café for about 45 minutes, and during this time I see groups of people enter the shop with the intention of chatting over coffee, while others come in search of food. This reveals the other half of the café’s ownership, Sarah, who occupies herself with the preparation of delicious smelling dishes; savory tarts served with rocket, smaller tartines and salads, in addition to assortments of cakes and pastries. The pairing of barista Sofiane and chef Sarah produces a double hit of taste at this café, which is evident by the large yet casual turnover of customers, who arrive in search of a comfortable place to sit while they eat or drink.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel; text-align: justify;">I enjoy my time spent in Blackburn café, and by looking around it is apparent to me that the majority of customers also share a similar experience. This is one place that is definitely worth a visit for a smooth coffee and tasty French lunch menu. I will be returning with gourmands and coffee aficionados alike, as both will be catered for here.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel; text-align: justify;">Paris has delivered, once more, a stylish hangout spot for both French and English speakers near one of the more popular youth occupied areas of town. This is one thing that never surprises me about Paris: venues can continue to open up with the ultimate goal to deliver a great experience to customers, all in the name of good taste. I think about this high standard as I exit the café, and am suddenly met with a rush of cold air, racing down the near empty street. Now cloudy, the sky mocks my subtropical origins. I should have brought a jacket.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Hidden in the backstreets of a district rich in trendy bars and restaurants, L’Arbre à Café ('The Coffee Tree') is establishing itself as an important feature of Paris’ coffee landscape. Originally just a roaster (some of you might recognise the logo from the Strada Café beans), L’Arbre à Café opened its coffee boutique in rue du Nil last year and has since attracted a diverse crowd of caffeine-enthusiasts, catering for the old and converting the new.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">The owner, Hippolyte Courty, began roasting beans in 2009 after making t</span><span style="font-family: corbel;">he switch to coffee from the wine industry, where his palate had received years of fine tuning. A commitment to ethical trade, a high level of contact with growers and of course a passion for coffee means that each of the hand-picked single-origin varieties available at L’Arbre à Café is well worth your while. Rumour has it that Hippolyte has plans to open a new roasting workshop and a coffee training school, so keep an ear out for any updates in that department. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieo0O0s5g87LKvhM4unYdp5rMWKdKGaQ6_-kiwu6zoFJzyR8q1R8fIQzBHrJc-mvdzJaECxyyn0YVTUyMe6zvqmZg9REAGTH-7mFLelZ510oEn67XKnQN5udNLNdX5QN_-0alOk321cD1C/s1600/arbreacafe1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieo0O0s5g87LKvhM4unYdp5rMWKdKGaQ6_-kiwu6zoFJzyR8q1R8fIQzBHrJc-mvdzJaECxyyn0YVTUyMe6zvqmZg9REAGTH-7mFLelZ510oEn67XKnQN5udNLNdX5QN_-0alOk321cD1C/s1600/arbreacafe1.JPG" height="227" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">The tiny, intimate space in la rue du Nil makes for a comfortable setting in which customers can browse an elaborate display of coffee-related equipment and paraphernalia while getting a quality caffeine hit. That said, remember that it's not really a café so much as a coffee boutique, so don't expect to be able to take a seat and relax there for hours. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">Their mini <a href="http://www.bouncecoffee.com/product_images/e/812/29256_gs3_web-ready15B15D__83133_zoom.jpg" target="_blank">Marzocco GS/3</a> may be small, but it certainly packs a punch, staying true to the family name and bringing out the best in the beans. This is made possible by the solid team of local and international baristas, who know exactly what they're doing. They've also got some brewed options like <a href="http://espro.ca/espro-press/" target="_blank">Espro Press</a> and pour over, if you're into that kind of thing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: corbel;">Aside from <a href="http://www.tripadvisor.com.au/Restaurant_Review-g187147-d719059-Reviews-Le_Cafe_de_la_Nouvelle_Mairie-Paris_Ile_de_France.html" target="_blank">Le Café de la Nouvelle Mairie</a> (post coming, watch this space), L'Arbre à Café beans are used by at least a dozen other cafés and restaurants in Paris. Hippolyte, not wanting to reveal too much about his operation, didn't disclose the names of these places. This is an open invitation for you, dear reader, to get out there and track them down. The coffee is bound to be good, and by this time next year, there'll probably be a dozen more branches of The Coffee Tree. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: corbel;">As a place that, until recently, has managed to keep off the good coffee radar, Le Look is a gem that should be appreciated for its vintage charm and original character. Opened in 2007, Le Look resides in a quiet street not far from la rue du Faubourg St Denis–a bustling, colourful district home to myriad African hair salons, Turkish tea rooms, trendy banh mi joints, <a href="http://www.lemauri7.com/" target="_blank">bobo bars</a> and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Le-Pompon/139509399405707" target="_blank">hipster nightclubs</a>–to name a few. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: corbel;">These days, Le Look is a favourite spot for locals to head to during the week for breakfast, lunch or le goûter. Lunchtime formules start at around 11€ for a soup+salad deal, and for 4.5€ more you can add a succulent beef burger to the mix. </span><span style="font-family: corbel;">Besides coffee, you can pick from a range of teas (3.50€ to stay), fresh juices (5€ to stay), as well as a good selection of Belgian, English and German bottled beers (4-7€). </span><span style="font-family: corbel;">Homemade quiches and quesadillas that are quick to disappear are other reasons the place is so packed at rush hour. If there are no seats, don't despair: takeaway is quite a bit cheaper and there's plenty to see in the local environs. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Corbel; text-align: justify;">Located
in the Square du Temple–a stone’s throw from Le Marché des Enfants Rouges–The
Broken Arm offers great coffee in a trendy and quirky retail setting. As the
café component of The Broken Arm concept store, this hip establishment with a
distinctly Scandinavian vibe has gathered a faithful following since opening in
2012. </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Originally
sourcing beans from Norwegian roasters Solberb & Hansen, The Broken Arm
café has recently started working with Café Lomi, with a custom blend currently
being developed. Local and international baristas like Melody, who hails all
the way from coffee-crazed Seattle, are kind, friendly and dedicated to the
cause, treating their Marzocco machine like a loyal, lifelong friend. The
coffee, available to stay or to go, meets the expected standards of Paris’ new
coffee scene.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">With a selection of original and tasty dishes on
offer, lunchtime can be a bit of a rush, as crowds flock in to get their hands
on menu items that reflect the innovative spirit of the concept store, including
swordfish tartare and beet(root) carpaccio. Homemade desserts and Mast Brothers
chocolates will keep your coffee company once lunch is over. For those arriving
in the morning, a small but decent selection of breakfast options, including
the usual pastries, cookies and fresh fruit/veggie juices, should keep you
satisfied. </span><span style="font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />

reflect the fact that The Broken Arm café fits right into the overall feel of
the boutique. Simple but intricate, cool but original, everything in this place
highlights the meticulous design and artistic precision put into what you see.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">When the owner of Black Market,
Youssef, closed up shop in rue Ramey last year, some might have feared it was
the end of his venture into the Paris specialty coffee scene. However,
following the arrival of his fantastic new address–Fragments Paris–in rue des
Tournelles in February this year, it would seem we had nothing to worry about.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">With its unassuming, matte black
shopfront, Fragments looks more like a humble artist's studio from the outside
than the cool and cosy coffee hangout that is revealed once you step inside.
The immaculate simplicity of the interior is both relaxing and intriguing, as
the café in many ways contains "fragments" of specialty coffee shop
culture from around the world. The smooth black front of the long wooden
counter is reminiscent of a Scandinavian café, while the unembellished brick
wall evokes something you might find in New York. However, as you're reminded
by the exposed ceiling beams that you're actually in Paris, you get a glimpse
of Youssef's vision for his space.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Without having travelled extensively,
Youssef created Fragments entirely from his own inspiration and ambition. After
changing location from Black Market due to a lack of kitchen space, he was keen
to open a place that reflected his approach to food and coffee: neat and simple
on the surface, but with a level of care and commitment ensuring that every
aspect of the final product is as good as it can be.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">On the minimalistic food menu you will
find only a few dishes, made from fresh, seasonal ingredients, and constantly
changing, according to what's available. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">The coffee follows the same spirit, as
Youssef chooses beans depending on the harvest–at the moment he's using Kaffa
and Coffee Collective. Each 18g dose of coffee beans is carefully measured out
and ground for each order, highlighting the care taken to guarantee maximum
quality at each step of the process. The baristas' calm but cool demeanour fits
right into the Fragments ethos: you feel pleasantly relaxed while all the
attention is placed on the coffee, as it is carefully extracted from the same
impressive </span><i style="font-family: Corbel;"><a href="http://keesvanderwesten.com/mirage-duette-classic.html" target="_blank">Kees Van Der Westen Mirage</a></i><span style="font-family: Corbel;"> that was on display at
Black Market. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv__MbJlK27HHY7-oU5aMG2R1-3sSEsTnMyDwC9-9cXhHYeqBSq-Rpxdn6d3z9ZUgiZ5UZu8db3bQfUFrrhdfCvRzoxOKu8-8M_nommbq9xpXwFR2OltQ2yTJMJmZ2_jL_qS7dmsd_ltfj/s1600/Fragments3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv__MbJlK27HHY7-oU5aMG2R1-3sSEsTnMyDwC9-9cXhHYeqBSq-Rpxdn6d3z9ZUgiZ5UZu8db3bQfUFrrhdfCvRzoxOKu8-8M_nommbq9xpXwFR2OltQ2yTJMJmZ2_jL_qS7dmsd_ltfj/s1600/Fragments3.jpg" height="125" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">In Youssef's own words: if all these
cafés look the same, it's because all the owners loo</span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">k at the same Tumblrs.
Sure, we're always going to attempt to put every new experience into a
predefined category we're already familiar with. You might liken Fragments to a
café you would find in Copenhagen, London, New York or Sydney, but you'd be
missing the point. Youssef's desire to articulate his own personal tastes and
values means that there is only one place you will find a café like Fragments,
and that's at 76 rue des Tournelles, Paris.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Holybelly
is a welcome addition to the increasingly crowded rue Lucien Sampaix, home also
to <a href="http://www.goodcoffeeinparis.com/2013/01/tuck-shop.html" target="_blank">Tuck Shop</a> and <a href="http://www.bobsjuicebar.com/" target="_blank">Bob’s Juice Bar</a>. Its French owners, Nicolas Alary and Sarah Mouchot, have been enormously successful in their venture to provide superb coffee and high quality food (made daily from fresh ingredients) in a comfortable, trendy setting.</span><span style="color: red; font-family: Corbel;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">As you step into the sizeable, meticulously
designed space, you are welcomed by a beautiful wooden façade, which gives way to a pathway lined by a long counter on one side and by stylish two-person booths on the other. Past this first configuration, Holybelly then extends
to a set of larger tables, spread out beneath a sightly array of <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/08/nyregion/08bulb.html?_r=0" target="_blank">exposed-filament vintage light bulbs</a>. Groups should be advised to prepare for a skirmish
to find a spot, particularly on the weekend. Finally, the café opens wide with enough room for a large
communal table, a comfortably used couch and an appropriately retro pinball
machine.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">The
inclusion of an arcade game is fitting because Holybelly is fun. On the footpath out the front, a chalkboard A-frame posts such gems as “Warning:
Jamiroquai played on high rotation”. Once inside, customers may continue to enjoy pop culture references, including a “Flat ‘Walter’ White” or the “Agent Cooper
Special”, consisting of a filter coffee and a slice of cake for 5.5€. The owner, Nico, ever
enthusiastically smiling and greeting from behind his Marzocco, assures that
his customers are grinning before they are even seated.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Holybelly prides itself on the enviable freshness of its ingredients and the high standard of the food served, which is prepared with love in the open kitchen by chefs Sarah Mouchot and Lise Kvan. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">Casually clipped onto the familiar wooden board and written in flawless Franglais, there is a full breakfast menu for 5–13€, available all day on the weekend and until midday during the week. After 12pm, weekday diners can take a pick from the monthly-rotating lunch menu for 12.5€–15.5€. The 12.5€ bacon and
eggs dish is available all day until the kitchen shuts its doors (3pm on weekdays and 4pm on the weekend). Of particular interest is the beautiful pancake, egg, bacon
and bourbon butter heart-attack-inducing monstrosity. You will regret
ordering it but it is essential that you do.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Coffee
roasted by Belleville Brûlerie will then cap off a deliciously sickening meal, and on the weekend, </span><i style="font-family: Corbel;">Le Bloody Mary by Lockwood</i><span style="font-family: Corbel;"> (10€) should help you bounce back after a rough night. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">You will, without a doubt, leave Holybelly smiling, just as Nicolas and Sarah intended.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Corbel; text-align: justify;">As one of the premier pioneers in specialty coffee in Paris,
La Caféothèque de Paris and its dedicated team deserve a special mention on
this site. It was in part thanks to the initiative of Gloria Montenegro that
Parisian coffee drinkers were reminded that there was more to coffee than big
brand beans and burnt bitterness.</span><span style="font-family: Corbel; text-align: justify;"> </span><span style="font-family: Corbel; text-align: justify;"> </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Starting in 2001, Gloria would roam the city with a few fellow
aficionados and provide samples of carefully-selected single estate brews to locals, in the hope of raising awareness of high quality beans, independent,
local roasting and careful extraction. The idea was to appeal to the French
appreciation of fine flavours and aromas, such as those characteristic of the
exquisite wines and perfumes found in France. By tempting the refined French
palate, Gloria would use these public tastings to win over locals and gain
support for her atypical style of coffee, which to this day is exclusively
single estate–no blends. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Corbel;">It wasn’t long before those sampling her coffee demanded it in espresso
form, and so in 2005 she resigned from her previous job and dedicated herself
entirely to coffee by opening La Caféothèque de Paris. After a visit from the
president of La Marzocco in 2006, who claimed that “such good coffee deserves an
equally good machine”, La Caféothèque became one of the first cafés in Paris to
host a first class coffee rig. This was</span><span style="font-family: Corbel;"> </span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">a
turning point for coffee in the city, as La Caféothèque was not only a hub for
coffee culture, but it would also provide a setting for the likes of Thomas
Lehoux (Ten Belles, Belleville Brûlerie), David Nigel Flynn (Télescope,
Belleville Brûlerie), Channa Galhenage (Café Loustic) and more recently
Emmanuel Buschiazzo (Réseau des Baristas de France), </span><span style="font-family: Corbel;"> </span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">amongst many others, to immerse themselves in
specialty coffee in Paris.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Thirteen years after Gloria started her public tastings, La Caféothèque continues
to play its part in an increasingly diverse Parisian coffee culture. The café,
which is located right across from the astronomical real estate prices of Ile
St. Louis, consists of a variety of Latin-inspired spaces in which customers
can enjoy one of the twenty single estate varieties on offer. Committed baristas
like Yadh, who proudly claims never to have served a blend in his life, make
sure you get your money’s worth. Coffee may be accompanied by a homemade sweet
or savoury pastry, otherwise the little piece of chocolate that comes with
every order should keep you going for a while. By the by, knowing where/how to
order can be confusing sometimes (perhaps a remnant of blissful Latin chaos),
so if you’re not sure then just head straight to the bar and let them know what
you’re after.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">These days, Gloria, her husband Bernard and their talented daughter
Christina take care of the operations side of the business. Besides all the
upkeep, accounting, marketing and communications, this includes 50-hour
intensive coffee courses for people who wish to work in the industry. While all
this is going on in the training room, Eyayu, the resident roaster, is churning
out ten batches per day of coffee ready to be sold or consumed on the premises.
La Caféothèque is like a well-oiled coffee machine, where all the gears are
tirelessly turning to produce the best cup possible.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

adoptive country, helped to initiate the development of a style of coffee that
has grown and evolved in Paris over the past decade. </span><span style="font-family: Corbel;">Keep all of this in mind when you go to La Caféothèque, and you’ll
appreciate a lot more than just the contents of your cup.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">The
most recent Lehoux venture, Lockwood, has seen the two elder brothers, Olivier
and Christophe, pool the family talents to create one place where good drinks
can be enjoyed all day round. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">To
kick things off, Lockwood takes good care of all your coffee and breakfast
needs. Muesli, banana bread and buttermilk biscuits will give you something to
munch on while you get your caffeine hit, courtesy of Belleville Brûlerie. When
lunchtime comes round, there's a plat du jour for 8€, buttermilk biscuits and
gravy for 8-14€ (depending on your toppings), and a range of salads for about
7€. Wash it down with a glass of apple juice, direct from the Lehoux family orchard.</span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">If
you think it's about that time of day, then polish off the last few drops of
your coffee and take a look at one of their cocktail lists, attached to the
obligatory wooden clipboard. Names like Negroni, Ginger Collins and Chino Libre
bring to mind hipster hangouts of New York, Sydney and London, a sentiment
confirmed by the craft beers, yarn-bombed pipes and the spirit bottles hanging
happily from occy straps. The display cabinet bar keeps your eyes busy with its
random bric-a-brac and old editions of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Le
Monde Diplomatique</i>, while the hip young staff members are always good for a
chat in French or English. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Once
the liquor starts flowing, the upstairs bar goes into aperitivo mode, featuring
popcorn and peanuts as well as more serious nibbles like charcuterie, olives
and bread. All of this comes free with a drink and is enjoyed in a warmly-lit, convivial
atmosphere that makes you feel like you’re hanging with friends in a converted log cabin. To order dinner off their monthly-rotating menu, you can
either stay right where you are, or from 7pm you’re invited to the downstairs
bar which, after the journey through the long, descending passageway, feels
more like a secret chamber in a castle than a licensed venue. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

good company. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;">With the recent arrival in Paris of another
handful of specialty coffee shops, it is safe to say that third-wave coffee
culture is well and truly consolidating its position in the city. By its very
name, Fondation Café has laid yet another foundation in this ever-expanding
structure.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;">

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12.0pt;">Having opened the new coffee bar in September
2013, barista and founder Chris Nielson aims not only to cater for the needs
of pre-existing specialty coffee drinkers, but also to educate unenlightened
locals. Positioned behind his impressively majestic <a href="http://keesvanderwesten.com/spirit-pictures.html" target="_blank">Kees Van Der Westen <i>Spirit</i></a>, imported from The Netherlands, he carefully crafts each cup of coffee
to reflect his years of experience in the industry. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12.0pt;">Those already familiar with the culture are sure to be served exactly what they want, while newcomers are treated to detailed explanations–in French, Swedish or English–of why they are drinking something special. </span><span style="font-family: Corbel; font-size: 16px;">With a history of barista work at The Source and Mecca in Sydney, followed by Ten Belles, Chris and his electrifying hairdo guarantee that no one leaves unsatisfied.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12pt;">The impeccably designed space reflects the
focus on coffee. Minimalistic décor and the tiny size of the interior ensure
that your attention is immediately drawn to the coffee machine, which captures the spirit of the place in more than just its name. There are a few
tables, inside and out, as well as a small counter for those who prefer to sip
standing. As a dedicated coffee bar, Fondation Café is not abounding in food options, but between the Emperor Norton granola, the chocolate tart and other delectable cakes and cookies, your sweet tooth is more than catered for. Those in need of a savoury bite will find happiness in the avocado on toast, served with salt and chilli powder. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12pt;">Chris, Manuel and Lauren, the owners of
Fondation Café, have created an embodiment of what some predict to be the
future of coffee in Paris. Whether or not that prediction may be true, it is
undeniable that people must change their attitude towards the coffee culture of
the city, and Fondation Café is an excellent place to start. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Corbel;">If it wasn't already apparent that Café Coutume was
going for a coffee laboratory look with all the beakers and flasks in
their main café, Coutume Lab should clear up any remaining doubts.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">As part of <a href="http://www.lelaboratoire.org/en/"><span style="color: blue;">Le Laboratoire</span></a> and <a href="http://labstore-paris.com/prestashop/index.php?"><span style="color: blue;">Le
Lab Store</span></a>, Coutume Lab is a venue for a whole array of
fascinating–and sometimes extremely bizarre–sense experiences. On the shelves
you will find a collection of intricate inventions, ranging from <a href="http://labstore-paris.com/prestashop/index.php?id_category=9&controller=category&id_lang=1"><span style="color: blue;">inhalable coffee vapour</span></a> to prototypes for
scent-transmitting phones, while at the bar you will be treated to a gustative
ceremony, courtesy of <a href="http://www.wikipearl.com/#wikipearl" target="_blank">WikiPearl Ice Cream</a> and Café Coutume. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">First, a word about the coffee, as that's why we're
all here. It is made by Coutume-certified baristas who have many years'
experience in the business. As such, it meets the standards of even the
fussiest coffee drinkers, i.e. you, dear reader. If you're just after a coffee,
then have one at the counter and browse the myriad inventions on display while
you savour your beverage. Otherwise, get one to go and head out to explore the
surrounding 1st and 2nd arrondissements.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Second, a word about WikiPearl. Apparently, the
whole idea is to create a frozen ice cream-like ball that tastes like a
particular food (sweet or savoury) that we are used to. Examples include, but are
certainly not limited to, pumpkin and coriander, beetroot and foie gras, and
roquefort and walnut. The experience is exactly as you'd expect it to be: it
tastes just like the ingredients, only in the form of a frozen ball of
foodstuff. Delicious? Difficult to say. Worth a try? Definitely.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">At the moment, Coutume Lab is organising free
degustations on Saturdays, where they offer you four savoury WikiPearls,
followed by an espresso broken down into its six distinct stages. From a dose
of 18g of freshly ground coffee, the barista extracts the six parts of the
espresso into separate cups, and asks you to identify the flavours as you
progress from the beginning to the end of the shot. You are then shown the <a href="http://www.scaa.org/?page=resources&d=scaa-flavor-wheel"><span style="color: blue;">coffee taster's flavour wheel</span></a> and given a
detailed description of what you just drank. Finally, the barista indicates
which stage (or stages) of the espresso you are used to, depending on the
coffee that is characteristic of your country. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">All in all, the experience is extremely interesting
and enjoyable. The barista executes the role of coffee scientist with
impressive precision, and as you sit and chat with your fellow guinea pigs, you
can't help but feel like you're part of something new and exciting.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">If you are after such an experience to accompany
your cup of Coutume coffee, then make a trip to Coutume Lab. </span></div>

opened the business in 2007, fantastically lively French owner Franklin Reinhard initially contented
himself with Illy beans, before making the shift to Cafe Lomi coffee in 2011,
originally with the help of barista Thomas Lehoux (Caféothèque, Ten Belles).
With the availability of well-made coffee, Franklin made sure that people
weren't only coming to his cafe for the fantastic food. </span><br />

from being a simple coffee shop, Eggs&Co. offers a tasty and creative

20-30€, while the stand-alone starters, mains and desserts range from about
7-20€. All of this is enjoyed in a comfortably tight, homely setting,
featuring a plethora of egg-shaped décor and friendly staff. </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: corbel;">Loustic is an old French word, translating
to “smart alec.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">When I was young, I was the little sibling amongst
my extended family, but in my own mind
I believed myself to be intellectually superior in every way. These sentiments
revealed themselves when I would routinely attempt to demonstrate my cleverness by cheekily challenging
everything my elders said. For the most part, such subversion would go unnoticed, and I was still the young one,
with little influence to offer. However, on rare occasions, I would succeed in
my attempts to mentally squash the others in conversation, and I could see
defeat in their eyes as they said to me: “You’re a little smart alec aren’t you</span><span style="font-family: corbel;">?</span><span style="font-family: corbel;">” I loved it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: corbel;"><span lang="EN-US">I was reminded of these times while interviewing the
owner of Café Loustic , Channa Galhenage. Having finished a quality cup of his café crème, I was
already impressed with the taste. It was
a<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> </b>smooth, creamy beverage that, despite the summer heat, was very easy to
drink. As Channa told me about his rich history with coffee, he spoke in a way that
reflected a supreme addiction to the drink. He referred to himself as a “legal
drug dealer,” then later added that he still “followed the rules” when making
coffee, to ensure the best and most consistent flavour for his customers. He uses beans that come from a Belgian
roaster called Caffè Nation and crafts them into a master beverage on a classic Florentine Marzocco machine. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

an interior décor that sits comfortably between classical and modern Parisian
design. Patterned couches and wicker chairs contrast nicely with octagonal wooden
tables, and the chain-linked wallpaper in the back room is warmly lit by a
variety of interesting lamps. Those sitting on the long couch in the front room
have moveable tables that allow for easy access, and additionally they are
treated to a view of the food resting on the counter and their coffees being
prepared. The bricks on the wall behind the bar are exposed, revealing the
original framework of this 300-year-old building, while on the opposite wall, is
an homage to the Orient Express, the train line that ran from Paris to Istanbul
for more than 100 years. Clearly, the focus of this shop is directed entirely
towards the city in which it was located.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">I arrived at the shop before Channa and was
happily greeted by two lovely ladies (including Sandra of Café Lomi) behind the
counter, who said that he would arrive at around 2pm. He walked in shortly
after, and immediately presented an example of the atmosphere he sought to
develop in his café. It appeared as though he knew each customer well, and he
greeted him or her with a European double kiss. When he merely smiled and
nodded at me, it was confirmed that he actually did know the majority of his
customers. I asked him later about that familiarity and he said that his first
goal with this café was to find a consistent group of both Parisians and
expats, who could call Loustic their local hang out. Fortunately for him, the shop
is located in one of the coolest areas of the Marais. Immediately nearby you
can find the offices of Radio Marais, a classic Hungarian deli and one of the
few authentic Chinese handmade noodle restaurants in Paris. He says the
location helped him not only to garner an eclectic and dynamic group of
regulars, but also consistently to attract the attention of passers-by, strolling
down the pretty little Rue Chapon.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">The customers around me conversed in a
relaxed and open manner. I saw English and French people interspersed
throughout the café, talking in both languages while they drank their café
crèmes and espressos. There was only one customer sitting alone, although he turned out to be a good
friend of one of the baristas, who would regularly pause her work duties to
take up animated discussion about the summer holidays and plans for the
upcoming year. Funnily enough, after the first few minutes of conversation with
Channa in French, we both realised that English was our mother tongue and so
recommenced our introductions. Finding out that he was from London was the most
surprising part of this interview, as so much of this café was Parisian. Following
this revelation, he recounted the many reasons why it was so easy for him to
settle into this city and its inherent lifestyle. He described it as the style
and gastronomy capital of the world, indicating that it wasn’t good enough for
both of those factors to be overlooked by the café owners of Paris.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">As I write this, the Loustic spirit begins
to form. Combining good coffee, a regular local clientele, a dream location and
a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere, this café challenges the preconceptions
of Paris as having an underdeveloped coffee culture. With a cheeky grin on his
face, Channa makes a prediction that in five years, Paris will be the number
one city in the world for specialty coffee. The audacity of that statement goes
unnoticed, as I look around and see the makings of a Parisian café that could
well match those found in trendy parts
of<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>America or Australia. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: corbel;">I had never really considered the coffee making potential of a Parisian café whose main preoccupation was baking, since almost every other place in Paris sharing this feature had always proven to be less than satisfactory in the coffee department. Sugarplum Cake Shop turned out to be a delicious exception to this rule. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: #fafafa; line-height: 19px; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: corbel;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: corbel;">These guys (or girls rather, since there is only one male staff member at the time of writing) opened a few years ago. Originally from North America, they created what has turned out to be a greatly successful business, specialising in custom-made cakes for weddings and other such causes for celebration. Like just about every other bar and restaurant in France, they were initially infected with the Café Richard virus. However, thanks to Pascale, one of the many lovely Sugarplum fairies and a personal friend of Café Lomi, they didn't take long to find a cure to this dreadful disease.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: corbel;"><span style="font-family: corbel;"><span style="font-family: corbel;">After being introduced to the team at Lomi, Sugarplum decided to invest in a great little La Marzocco coffee machine, in barista training for certain staff members, and in the right kind of beans. This has paid off, and while coffee is not their main focus, they do it really well (they have a flat white on the menu), and with real milk. It's a great little space too, with free wifi (except on weekends), and all manner of funky décor to keep your eyes busy during your stay. You probably won't find anywhere else in Paris where you can drink such good coffee and enjoy such a wide selection of sensational cakes (like incredible cheesecake and carrot cake) and other sweets at the same time. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: corbel;"><span style="font-family: corbel;"><span style="font-family: corbel;">As well as having good coffee and delightful little cakes, Sugarplum has the added advantage of being in a great location. Right at the top of la rue Mouffetard, it is the perfect pitstop for a day out in the Quartier Latin, in which there are myriad things to do and see. One of my favourite walks is to go from Saint-Germain-des-Prés, down la rue des Canettes and past l'Eglise de Saint Sulpice. There's a <a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=la+rue+f%C3%A9rou&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=48.849835,2.333994&spn=0.009587,0.022724&sll=48.842046,2.355073&sspn=0.009589,0.022724&gl=fr&hnear=Rue+F%C3%A9rou,+75006+Paris,+%C3%8Ele-de-France&t=m&z=16" target="_blank">little passageway, la rue Férou,</a> with a Rimbaud poem written in giant letters on the wall, and at the other end you arrive at le Jardin du Luxembourg. Walk through there, past le Sénat and up la rue Soufflot straight to le Panthéon. From here la rue Mouffetard is but a stone's throw away, so now would be a good time to stop by and say hi to our friends at Sugarplum. Once you're finished there, head to le Jardin des Plantes to check out the wallabies in the menagerie and then stop by <a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=la+mosqu%C3%A9e+de+paris&hl=en&ie=UTF8&fb=1&gl=fr&hq=la+mosqu%C3%A9e&hnear=0x47e66e1f06e2b70f:0x40b82c3688c9460,Paris&cid=0,0,6929196916246499224&t=m&z=16&iwloc=A" target="_blank">la Mosquée de Paris (the Paris Mosque) </a>for a 2E glass of super sweet mint tea and Middle Eastern treats. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12pt; text-align: justify;">As
unlikely as it may sound, it was actually a born and bred Parisian friend who
told me about this lesser-known, sweet little café in Le Marais. Naturally
sceptical to begin with – as it wouldn't have been the first time a French
friend had failed to understand the fundamental difference between what we
consider to be good coffee – I was pleasantly surprised upon arrival to find
out that I hadn't been led into a Café Richard trap. What's more, no one in any
of the other cafés had told me about it, and it doesn't seem like a lot of
people have heard of it, so it felt like much more of a genuine discovery.
Merci, Elodie. </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12.0pt;">It's
in la rue du Temple, close to both Rambuteau and Arts et Métiers. According to
Peter, the Swedish-Australian barista/environmental science PhD student who was
working, a Swedish lady opened the place in 2012. I don't know anything more
about this, but she has done a very good job with the café. The interior will
keep your eyes busy while you wait for your order, with a collection of
strange/cool artworks hanging from the wall, a set of shelves with all sorts of
coffee related products on display, and of course the obligatory Marzocco
machine proudly perched behind the counter. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12.0pt;">The
flat white Peter made me was spot on, so I quickly ordered another round of
caffeine delight for my Franco/Swiss flatmate and myself. My friend Elodie says
the espresso coffee she drinks there is infinitely tastier than what most of
her fellow countrymen/women drink. Peter told me that the coffee beans were
from a local roasting business called<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.larbreacafe.com/" target="_blank">L'Arbre

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; font-size: 12.0pt;">I'm
not an expert on Le Marais, but there are a lot of cool things to see and do in
the area. <a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=le+march%C3%A9+des+enfants+rouges&hl=en&ie=UTF8&fb=1&gl=fr&hq=le+march%C3%A9+des+enfants+rouges&hnear=0x47e66e1f06e2b70f:0x40b82c3688c9460,Paris&cid=0,0,15849705908448399955&t=m&z=16&iwloc=A" target="_blank">Le Marché des Enfants Rouges</a> is
just up the road, so it could be good to start there and then mosey on down to
Strada afterwards. A day in the Marais would not be complete without eating a
falafel from<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://plus.google.com/115347975969490413823/about?gl=fr&hl=en">L'As

renowned falafel authority. There is also a cool bar in la rue au Maire called<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=L%27Attirail,+Rue+au+Maire,+Paris&hl=en&ll=48.864545,2.356997&spn=0.019169,0.045447&sll=48.864515,2.357031&sspn=0.001205,0.00284&oq=l%27attirail&gl=fr&hq=L%27Attirail,+Rue+au+Maire,+Paris&t=m&z=15" target="_blank">L'Attirail</a><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>(3E pints and free sautéed potatoes

<div class="p2">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This recent addition to the ever-expanding collection of tasty coffee joints in Paris arrived at around the same time as Ten Belles, on the other side of the Canal Saint Martin. It's also just around the corner from Tuck Shop, another café I've been meaning to investigate. I was happy to see upon arrival that Lomi coffee beans were being used. Add to this the hipster vibe it gave off and </span><i style="font-family: inherit;">un vrai café</i><span style="font-family: inherit;"> was guaranteed. </span></div>
</div>
<div class="p2">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="p1">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">At the back of the café there were about fifteen or so well-dressed <i>bobos, </i>all probably electronically scribbling their latest creative endeavours into their shiny new MacBooks. Cynicism aside though, it makes for a great work environment, with <b>wifi on offer </b>and myriad power points on the long communal table. It is also in a quiet street, tucked away nicely from the hustle and bustle of République and rue du Faubourg du Temple. Everything is brand new and squeaky clean, there is a lot of space to stretch your legs and they even have a little bench outside for those with <i>café-clope </i>needs.</span></div>

<div class="p1">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It is definitely a nice area to check out once you've satisfied your caffeine craving. A good route is to walk from la rue du Faubourg du Temple, all the way up the Canal, then keep going up to Jaurès and Stalingrad, at which point you can choose to continue on to the Canal de l'Ourcq, or head into le Parc des Buttes Chaumont, Paris' biggest park. If you go to the Canal in summer you can buy a couple of beers in a local <i>épicerie </i>and sit down by the water until the sun sets, or until the local rangers tell you that you can't drink in the area after 9pm, whichever comes first. </span></div>

<div class="p1">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Back to the matter at hand. Indeed I was served, as I had hoped, a proper cup of coffee in a proper coffee cup (say that ten times faster). My friend ordered a cup of tea, which came in one of those elaborate Bodum tea apparatuses. She said it tasted nice. There seemed to be a variety of food on offer, including pasta salad served in a hiptastic jar and some pastries. </span></div>
</div>
<div class="p2">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="p1">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">When I asked Thomas, the owner over at Ten Belles, if it'd been an issue that this other, similar café had opened around the same time at such close proximity, he said no. Apparently Augustin, the owner of Craft, had aimed to open a place that provided a comfortable work environment for people who really wanted to have some good coffee while tap-tapping away on their keyboards – a <i>coffice, </i>a term I heard coined in some article. On the contrary, as previously mentioned, Ten Belles is really for people who want good coffee, and who aren't going to hang around all day taking up space with their empty cups while others wait outside in the cold. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">As for Augustin, he said he'd discovered good coffee while living in New York. When he finished his studies in business he decided to combine his skills with his passion and open up a café. So far so good.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="p2">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div class="p1">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Either way, I was very happy with what I got. </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">This two-tiered
coffee bar is one of the premium providers of specialty coffee in Paris. Opened
in late 2012 by the talented Thomas Lehoux, who had previously worked at La
Caféothèque and Eggs&Co., Ten Belles aims to provide its customers with
consistently high quality coffee in a cool, friendly and relaxed atmosphere. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">The assortment of
sweet and savoury food options, including an excellent, authentic and
sufficiently-sized sausage roll, will help to keep your belly happy. In the
meantime, allow your ears to indulge in the sweet tunes flowing throughout the
café, and take advantage of the lack of wifi to get to know your fellow coffee
consumer. If you prefer to fly solo, grab a seat outside and observe the local <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">bobo </i>and hipster populations as they go
about their business in the gloriously gentrified area of Canal St. Martin.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Thomas, who trained
as a barista in Australia and has since played a big part in bringing good coffee to Paris, has created a space that makes customers want to
share his passion for coffee. Even when they’re completely under the pump, the
trendy and friendly staff members always take the time to exchange a few words,
and really leave you feeling like that beautiful cup of coffee was made
especially for you. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

quality of the coffee and food, the smiling staff members and the hiptastic
location, it’s no surprise Ten Belles has become such a popular local hangout.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Corbel; text-align: justify;">Café
Lomi is one of the big names in Paris coffee, having been on the scene
practically since its inception and supplying beans for a number of restaurants
and specialty coffee shops in the city. Roasting was previously the sole
occupation of owner Aleaume Paturle, but thankfully he decided to open up a café for the general
public in 2012. Given the outstanding quality of the coffee they serve at Café Lomi, it
would have been cruel to make us wait any longer.</span></div>

space is great. It's big, open, beautifully designed and, combined with the
friendliness of the staff, creates a very communal and cosy atmosphere. There
is also free wifi and a selection of franco- and anglophone reading material
(magazines, newspapers, etc.) carefully laid out on the bar. Enjoy your
coffee with one of their many sweet and savoury bites prepared with love in the
corner kitchen.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Corbel; text-align: justify;">Café
Lomi organises a number of different training sessions, including barista and
coffee knowledge courses, which all take place in their workshop out the back
of the café. Baristas working in cafés or restaurants which use Lomi beans are
required to complete at least 20 hours of training before they can serve a Lomi
coffee. Talk about quality control.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Corbel;">Once
you’ve finished up, walk back along la rue Ordener and turn right
onto Boulevard Ornano. This will take you to <a href="http://equipement.paris.fr/marche-aux-puces-de-clignancourt-marche-aux-puces-de-saint-ouen-4519" target="_blank">le marché aux puces de St. Ouen</a> –
Clignancourt flea markets, where you’ll find everything from bootleg DVDs and
counterfeit football jerseys to quality vintage clothing and antique
bric-a-brac. It’s always nice to have a quick look at the outdoor market stalls
before heading into the antique section, which is much more peaceful and full
of all manner of interesting knickknacks.</span><span style="font-family: Corbel;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Sneakily tucked away in the <i>Impasse de la Défense </i>and just up the road from Place de Clichy, Le Bal Café offers a trendy setting in which to enjoy a decent coffee. As the café component of <a href="http://en.le-bal.com/" target="_blank">Le Bal art gallery</a>, this is a great way to add a dose of caffeine to your dose of culture. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">If you're just after a coffee then it's best to pop by during the week: the weekend is brunch time, so the crowds get
pretty overwhelming and the relatively small number of waitstaff can make it a
slow affair. If you're after a bite, allow the talented chefs to spoil you with a wide range of excellent food, including full English breakfasts. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Corbel; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">When the
weather is nice you can get a takeaway and sit in the park just across the
alleyway. Otherwise it's quite close to the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montmartre_Cemetery" target="_blank">Montmartre Cemetery</a> and <a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=rue+caulaincourt&hnear=Rue+Caulaincourt,+Paris&t=m&z=16" target="_blank">rue Caulaincourt</a>, not bad areas for a jaunt on a sunny afternoon. Head straight up
rue Caulaincourt and approach the Sacré Coeur from behind - it'll save you from all
the tourist chaos of the other routes and it's a really nice walk besides. You
can also turn right at Place de Clichy and head down <a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=boulevard+des+batignolles&hnear=Boulevard+des+Batignolles,+Paris&t=m&z=16" target="_blank">Boulevard des Batignolles</a>
towards <a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=parc+monceau&t=m&z=16&iwloc=A" target="_blank">Parc Monceau</a>, which is a great little place for a Parisian picnic. There are some nice shops in <a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=Rue+des+Batignolles,+Paris&hl=en&ll=48.884543,2.321527&spn=0.011401,0.02605&sll=48.879684,2.308955&sspn=0.011402,0.02605&oq=rue+des+bat&hnear=Rue+des+Batignolles,+75017+Paris&t=m&z=16" target="_blank">rue des Batignolles</a> (as well
as Restaurant Istanbul - the best kebab in Paris) and a good pedestrian zone in <a href="https://maps.google.fr/maps?q=rue+de+levis+paris&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=48.883358,2.314231&spn=0.011401,0.02605&sll=48.885552,2.319891&sspn=0.00143,0.003256&hnear=Rue+de+L%C3%A9vis,+Paris&t=m&z=16" target="_blank">rue de Lévis</a>.</span></div>
