Les Trois Chapeaux

When I went to this teeny tiny little place, there was some free live music, kind of an Eastern European feel or maybe Israeli. It was pretty good. Plus, we met some real characters. First, there was the scary older French guy who looked like Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan dictator, who kept asking me to dance or buy me a drink. Although flattering, he was also a little scary so I tried to avoid him as much as possible (kind of hard in a restaurant the size of an office). There was also the young French/​Scottish guy we met named William who apparently hates the US because he thinks it’s dangerous but also likes Americans in general. He was drunk so we didn’t really care about what he had to say. He had a pretty face but that’s about it. The best people we met were sitting at a table next to us. There was a man in his 40s named Christophe and his friend, Isabelle, probably in her 30s. She works with her friend organizing a fair trade product business from Asian countries. Christophe works in the film industry providing all the background sounds! How cool. I love restaurants that bring people together like this!
