Classical Music in ParisI love to attend classical music concerts while in Paris.  They are inexpensive, relaxing, and a great way to soak up Parisian culture.  There is always something going on.  My favorite venues for classical music concert in Paris are those held at Sainte-Chapelle and the American Cathedral in Paris.   These and other Paris classical music options are explored in this blog.

Paris Restaurants at Bargain PricesYou can eat quite well in Paris for about 50 euro for two with wine – you just need to know where to go.   I suggest you venture down to the Latin Quarter, Ile St. Louis, rue Cler and St. Germain to find some good, inexpensive restaurants.

First of all, all restaurants must post their menus outside.   Many restaurants offer a “formule” or price fix dinner.  These are often the best values.  Remember, the menu price reflects your TOTAL cost, including tax and tip.   However,  if  two  are dining, it would be a good idea to leave a 2 or 3 euro tip. 

Areas like those near rue Mouffetard and rue Cler offer plenty of  ethnic restaurants with good price fix dinners for about 20-30 euro each.      I encourage you to experiment and try what appeals to you.   If you stay away from the major tourist areas (Champs Elysees, for instance) and just go one or two blocks away from them, you will discover some very good, low-cost meals.  Finding them is half the fun of visiting Paris.

Here are some of my favorite restaurants in Paris:

Paris TravelDuring my last trip to Paris, I found that Parisians were very pleased with the election of our African-American president, Barack Obama.   Paris has a long history of famous and influential African-American visitors and residents:  Josephine Baker,  James Baldwin,  Richard Wright, W.E.B. DuBois, and Langston Hughes are just a few of the many.   Our guest blogger, Julia Browne of Walking the Spirit Tours gives us some wonderful insight of black Paris of today and yesterday.

Paris HotelsWhen you travel to Paris, or anywhere else for that matter, hotel costs often make up the bulk of your travel costs.   Using Priceline.Com I once got a 4-star hotel near the Marble Arch in London for $52  per night – that’s right - $52 per night.   But before I put my bid in on Priceline.Com, I knew exactly what to bid and I had a very good idea of the hotel I would get.   Read the blog and I’ll tell you the secret of bidding on Priceline.Com and maybe you can get a great deal on a Paris hotel.
