353: Derrière
tucked behind 404 and Andy Wahloo is a restaurant which is a far cry from the usual identikit Parisian bistro. *Derrière*, opened by Mourad Mazouz, offers a kind of « dining at home » experience. Although most of us go out in order to feel like we’re not eating at home, and dinner at Derrière is more
like visiting an eccentric kleptomaniac’s house. You might be seated in the main room with its kitchen table, comfy sofas and even a ping pong table which offers amusement between courses, even more so when the ball lands in someone’s *joue de boeuf bourguignon*. Or you could choose to eat in the cosy den, or even the bedroom, perched on the edge of a mattress. The roll top bath used as a handbasin is a nice touch, but the best bit of all is the jumbled mishmash of furniture and odd curios in the hidden smoking room, accessed through a secret door in a mirrored wardrobe… if you can find it,
that is.

403: Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte
Never was there a story of more woe than that of Monsieur Fouquet and his gros château. Finance minister and friend to Louis XIV, Nicolas Fouquet rose from obscurity almost as fast as he fell back into it. Born into a family of parliamentarians, the ambitious and later ennobled art-lover started work on Vaux le Vicomte in 1641, eliciting the aid of the relatively unknown trio of Le Vau, Le Brun, and Le Nôtre. The architecture, interiors, and spectacular gardens of Vaux were conceived as a whole, and remain seamlessly united. Perspectival tricks and hidden surprises imbue the rather small château—and its not altogether expansive estate—with a yet unparalleled grandeur.
Although the Château was allegedly meant as a gift for the King, Fouquet’s hauteur annoyed Louis. Two weeks after Vaux’s infamous inaugural fête in honor of the Sun King, Fouquet was jailed on false charges of embezzlement, ne’er to be heard from again.
Vaux remains in private hands, and is frequently rented out for today’s grandes fêtes. Tony Parker and Eva Longoria celebrated their nuptials at Vaux; Victoria Secret models recently preened through its hallowed halls for their Christmas ad-campaign. Share in the glamor on Saturday evenings (May to October) when visitors are invited to stroll the gardens, illuminated by thousands of tiny candles, coupe de champagne in hand.
Vaux le Vicomte is about 45 minutes from Paris by car, and 25 minutes by train (plus a 6km connection to the Chateau).

404: Les Grandes Ecuries
Chantilly is famous for three things: cream, lace (think the perfume) and horses. The town—about an hour from Paris on the train—is home to one of the Ile de France’s most underrated Chateaux, as well as arguably the most fantastic stables in all of Europe—the Grandes Ecuries.
Built by the seventh Prince of Condé, Louis-Henri de Bourbon, in the eighteenth century, the fantastic neo-classical stable was once home to 240 horses and 500 hounds, a brood even more extraordinary than the king’s.
The stables are open daily (except for Tuesdays), offering a “dressage” in the Ecuries’ towering theater that features the lavishly groomed and well-behaved ponies, who reside in the once royal stables and strut their stuff to dramatic tunes. The prestigious Prix de Diane is raced along the imposing walls of the Grandes Ecuries. Every June since 1843, the well-heeled and extravagantly-hatted of Paris venture to Chantilly to cheer on their favorite fillies.

Emmanuel Perrotin is really committed to supporting the arts—in 1995 he dressed up as a giant penis for six weeks at the request of artist Maurizio Cattelan, all to celebrate the opening of an exhibition at the gallery. He stalked the artist Sophie Calle, hiring a private detective to follow her every move essentially recreating her 1981 piece La Filature, all to get her to sign a contract with his gallery.
Needless to say, Perrotin has sent shock waves through the Paris contemporary art scene—waves that reach all the way to Miami where he has a second gallery outpost.
Constantly on his toes in search of cutting-edge young artists, Perrotin, regardless of age, has a knack for spinning art into gold.

In a city so steeped in history, especially when it comes to art, finding interesting, non-institutional exhibitions can be rare. But at Air de Paris directors Florence Bonnefous and Edouard Merino know how to challenge and surprise.
Moving out of the city’s traditional art centers, the two opened their gallery in the industrial, not yet shabby-chic 13th arrondissement. With the support of a smattering of other galleries that followed, Air de Paris has been foundational in re-establishing Paris on the contemporary art map.
With a penchant for international artists, the gallery shows art stars of the highest, most interesting stature including the collective Claire Fontaine, Olaf Breuning, Liam Gillick, Carsten Höller, Sarah Morris and many more.

You can still see the remains of an amphitheater built around the end of the first century A.D as a site of gladiator contests and theatrical performances—one of the largest amphitheaters of Roman Gaul with over a 15,000-person capacity.
Rediscovered in the mid-19th century during the building of the nearby rue Monge, this leafy park is now enjoyed by pétanque and soccer plers rather than gladiatorial games. To many residents, the “arenes de Lutece” is an inevitable and peaceful retreat of the French capital.

444: Canal Saint Martin
The Canal Saint-Martin, in the 10th Arrondissement, is not just an ordinary canal. Over recent decades, it has evolved into one of most fashionable and edgy spots of the French capital. Parisians usually enjoy summer picnicking on this four-kilometer-long canal that runs north from the Seine at Bastille Plaza and is lined with avant-garde galleries and old warehouses converted into lofts.
Some people usually bring their own saucisson and sit on the shores of the canal for sunset. Others enjoy a glass of wine at one of the few well-known cafes along the glimmering ribbon of water like café Chez Prune or the legendary Hôtel du Nord.

456: Thomsen
98 rue de turenne
Fiancé team, Alix Thomsen and Lionel Bensemoun, launched their semi-eponymous boutique store in 2009, bringing to the fore that evergreen Parisian classic, the fitted shirt. They also offer some quality jackets and cardies but it’s the shirts that carry the most prestige with a range that is stylish, and casual whilst maintaining a vintage feel.
The owners source their poplin, cotton veils and woolen fabrics from select producers in Japan, Italy, America and France before they go up for grabs in store as rugged, sexy shirts for the ladies, and as suave designs for the gents. Thomsen remains loyal to their previous ranges by keeping them in stock and for sale but they still throw up new and timeless cuts season after season so it’s definitely worth keeping tabs on their catalogue.

466: Gianvito Rossi
Gianvitto Rossi perfected his craft for over 20 years under the tutelage of one of Italy’s most prominent shoe designers: his father Sergio Rossi. In 2007 he launched his own collection of women’s shoes and handbags, opting for a more feminine and elegant approach. Rossi is very attentive to materials and proportions in order to give his designs maximum comfort. This translates into shoes that are actually comfortable to wear—day or night—without sacrificing style.

469: The lodge
24 rue de Poitou
The Lodge is a carousel of revolving decór and clothes. Spun around the concept of nomadic chic, the store pawns everything from the sundry items on its shelves to its couches, leaving the impression of a giant close-out sale. Clothes are even flung into flight trunks, the most popular non-clothing sale items.

475: Kabuki
Long before launching her eponymous collection, Barbara Bui opened a boutique in 1983 on rue Etienne Marcel where she tested her own designs among top ready-to-wear designers. It was an ostensible success, and now you can find the Barbara Bui women’s collection in addition to all the big names and their secondary lines at the space.
The large, but judicious selection includes clothes and accessories from Alexander McQueen, Balenciaga, and Rick Owens to Marc by Marc Jacobs, See by Chloé, and Prada Sport, just to name a few. The flagship store only carries women’s, but there is a footwear-only store across the street, and a men’s store two doors down next to another Bui store…just in case you forgot who the mastermind is.

483: Anaim
Anaïm is the definition of the word boutique: small space, small designers and small selection.
They carry six exclusive brands, including young Korean designers Paul & Alice and Rozee, minimalist Swedish label Filippa K and English brands KTZ and Marjan Pejoski of Björk swan dress fame. Most of the items are for women, but there is a random sprinkle of men’s looks and shoes by Lacoste and Adidas. Though tiny, the store’s quirkiness is still prevalent: clothes and naked babies dangle from hooks on clear fish wire and the fitting room is only a curtain in front of a mirror.
