If you ever go to Paris

I had the pleasure of spending this weekend with my girlfriend and some friends in Paris and on Saturday we had dinner reservations on Derriére.

A hyped up restaurant that seems like a giant apartment. The downstairs for example has a ping pong table that guests can play on between courses, an office where you struggle to eat between stacks of paper, a living room perfect for a TV dinner and so on. You really get the feeling of being in someone’s home and it gets even cosier when you go upstairs. Here you can be seated in the bedroom or in the dressing room. We got the seated in the bedroom, so 3 of us had to sit in the bed with a nicely done mirror ceiling above us.

But that’s not all. Because the French has a non smoking policy in public areas the Derriére has created a secret space for the smokers in the restaurant. You are told that if you want to smoke, go through the closet (above). Through the closet a big cosy secret smoking area would be found as you can see n the following pictures.

As the evening progressed it seemed more and more like a big house party and every single room had it’s own stereo so the guests in the room could decide how loud they wanted to party – our party ended with jumping in the bed and loud music. Just to wrap it up, the food is good, the price is reasonable, the atmosphere is superb and you should definitely go if you’re looking for something extraordinary in Paris. More pictures after the jump.
