My friend Matthieu brought me to Coutume Café on Sunday – excellent coffee and brunch, and a very nice interior (by Cut Architectures).
It’s hard to find really good coffee in Paris and Coutume is trying to change that – thanks to Matthieu for bringing me here.
More photos from Paris soon.
coutume – possibly one of the loveliest words in the French language.
thanks for the reminder that I need to go here.
What a pleasure it is to look forward to the day’s photos from the Blue Hour. Many thanks indeed!
it looks an excellent place & very beautifully shot, brain.
Is that beautiful contraption for making coffee?? Wow, it’s so pretty and I imagine the resulting coffee flavor would be just perfect!
I remember coffee in paris…um…sounds as though things are changing. What a beautiful place.
this place is hilarious — i remember walking by at night on my way home from la pagode and ended up talking with a barista for a half hour about their new machine: la marzocco strada. digitally programmable, variable pressures throughout the shot, the only one in europe, etc. these guys LOVE their coffee. stop in and they’ll show you how they do the roasting and give you an espresso tasting
The coffee’s bad in Paris?! It’s fabulous at Cafe du Monde in NOLA. And does one really relate at all to the other? I guess not. As always an intriguing post, Brian. I truly love the way you compose your photos. Always makes me imagine there’s something I’d really like to see just outside the frame. I love that. Kicks the imagination into gear.
Hi, Brian! I like the interior of the cafe too. Great pictures. Thanks for posting, all the time. I’ve been enjoying!
@Jean – that is so true! I was trying to think of why I love looking at The Blue Hour and that has to be one of them – I always want to know what else is outside of the frame. :)
try Le Petit Fer à Cheval in the 4th… I would like to see how you capture it…. Special Place.
