There’s Violet, who is somewhat fragile and needs pampering every day. Then there’s Daisy, the strapping young thing who has no fear. And of course Nasturtium, so shy she won’t dare show herself. All these lovelies are ready to meet you at a florist’s like no other: kind, inexpensive and full of surprises.

It’s a flea market by day, and a bistro by night. Eva Pritsky's boutique has a dual personality: it’s as good as gold from afternoon till dawn, then its turns into an underground café by night fall. If you want to have a taste of it, you'll have to climb up to Ménilmontant.
Almost perfect. But it just lacks a je-ne-sais-quoi of the more exciting, masculine, and rugged. Your apartment would be simply divine with a touch of industrial furniture.
“Whatever happened to that design bookcase you bought in Stockholm two years ago?” Well, it’s still sitting there waiting to be set up, why do you ask? It’s not your fault if you still haven’t found the handy-man of your life.

Why should your Christmas tree be squeezed into the trunk of a car or shoved around in the metro during rush hour? Not this year! It can take an environmentally friendly ride on a bike just like every other self-respecting Parisian ecologist. And also have a private chauffeur to boot! After a tour of Paris, it will be accompanied right to your door and even into your living room. Your snobby tree will get the real VIP treatment and this first class trip will not cost you a dime! How? This service is available from the florist “Ile aux fleurs” and the rickshaw agency, "Velotac&Cie”.
