The 18 best cheap eats in Paris

The 18 best cheap eats in Paris

The food in Paris is out of this world, but it can weigh heavily on your wallet. The city has something like 120 Michelin-starred restaurants (putting it only second to having the highest number in the world), and if you grab a snack in the wrong spot you could be looking at accidentally spending €20 on a sandwich and a drink.  But hey, even in a bougie city like Paris, there’s always going to be something affordable hiding round the corner – you just have to know where to look. Lucky, the team at Time Out Paris know their stuff, and have spent years scouring the city for its best affordable snacks, testing everything from bibimpap to ramen and €15 lunch deals.

Paris Olympics: here’s the full list of metro stations open all night during the opening ceremony

Paris is about to fire the starting gun on the 2024 Olympics, and needless to say whether you’ve nabbed some tickets or are planning on catching a public screening, excitement is mounting for the Games.  A particularly epic way to kick-off the competition if you’re going to be in Paris could be by joining the sprawling, city-wide bar-a-thon. Thanks to a one-off, all-night permit, watering holes across Paris have been licensed to stay open to dawn on the night of the opening ceremony (so until the morning of July 27) which sounds pretty fun, right? The good news is your journey home is covered, too. The RATP is rolling out all-night service on certain stops across lines 1, 4, and 14, and we’ve compiled a list of all the stations keeping the party alive, so pick your route and head back safely.

Manifeste pour une sobriété joyeuse

Manifeste pour une sobriété joyeuse

L’objectif de ce court texte ? Rendre la sobriété positive, inclusive, énergisante et grisante - oui, même sans alcool ! La sobriété joyeuse, ce n’est pas l’abstinence absolue mais une affirmation de la libre détermination du buveur et de la buveuse. Ni normative, ni donneuse de leçons, la sobriété joyeuse creuse le sillon d’une autre manière de boire. On propose une approche de la consommation d’alcool comme le flexitarisme aborde celle de la viande : une ouverture à la diversité des breuvages. Ceci est un plaidoyer pour l’omniverrisme. Boire quand je veux, si je veux Il s’agit de résister à l’injonction éthylique en société, ne plus s’abstenir de s’abstenir. Nous voulons lever le voile sur l’alcoolisme mondain qui est l’équivalent de l’alcoolisme professionnel du sommelier. Il y a de la joie à choisir de rester sobre, à consommer une boisson sans alcool en fonction des envies et des moments. Nous défendons l’idée que boire “sans” est un choix qui n’annule pas le fait de boire “avec” quand on le désire. Étendre le domaine du goût et des plaisirs En français, l’expression “boire” implique, par sous-entendu, d’ingurgiter de l’alcool et cela doit être questionné. Boire sans, c’est boire aussi, prendre plaisir à étancher sa soif. La sobriété joyeuse n’est pas une privation mais au contraire une richesse, celle de découvrir d’autres parfums et d’autres arômes. L’alternative aux boissons alcoolisées ne peut pas se réduire aux sodas hyper sucrés ou aux mixtures insipides : nous inv
