A night of Burlesque and too much wine

After getting all glammed up we headed out on the Metro again to Jussieu where we had a short walk to the Paradise Latin Cabaret. Billed as the “Most Parisian of Cabarets” it is located in the heart of the Left Bank and was built by Gustav Eiffel in 1889. We were seated right at the front and served a lovely lovely meal. I had prawns and some delicious salmon while Kirstin enjoyed the fois gras salad and also the salmon, there was a half bottle of champagne and a full bottle of red – no way we were going to get through all that at the end of a long day – Kirstin was more moderate but I did give it a go!! Then there was the show, singing, dancing, toplessness and of course the “Can can” to finish – unfortunately, the wine and the long day (the show ended after 11pm) was catching up with me and I was struggling to stay awake towards the end however it was still great fun and really good food – pity we had to waste the wine though! Then it was over and it was back to the metro and the hostel for our final night in ParisRead more
