The Changing Face Face of The Urban Scene

It is tempting to think that Paris never changes, that there is always a corner of this city where you really can catch a glimpse of Eugene de Rastignac or Jake Barnes, or stumble across a beatific Miles Davis en route to Club Saint-Germanin, with a young Juliette Greco on his arm. But the truth is that Paris is a city of constant, if sometimes gentle, upheaval. Ask anyone who has been to Le Refectoire for a hit of its liquorice-flavoured sauce, before shuttling off to rue des Taillandiers to check what new delights have landed at Patrick Seguin. Or you could take a ride on the Ligne 14 to the happening I3th arrondissement and the Tres Grande Biblioteque, if only to see how quickly in this city the monuments of tomorrow become yesterday's follie's.

.....to see that only in Paris are they still thinking of new ways to sell beauty yo men. Or check out the bergain barber's shops beside Gare de 1'Esti which are stuffed with pristine Joe Colombos, and you will see that only in Paris are they still thinking of new ways to repackage the past. And rather than rounding off oyur day with the once traditional choles-terol overdose, you could tuck into the dishes at L2Atelier de Joel Robuchon, where chef Joel Robuchon has reinvented French cuisine by keeping the good things and binning the bad. And, if all that isn't enough, embrace the past. There is certain to be another forgotten Le Corbusier villa to rediscover somewhere.
