4pm—?

La Buvette? We’ll play this by ear. If there’s room and some of us want to gather there, great!

If you’re running behind for the first stop, join us at the second. Or if you don’t want to hang out too long at the second stop come find us at the third.

Keep in mind we will not be able to reserve any tables. But that’s sort of the point. This is meant to be an organic and interactive adventure. Pair up, mingle, find a seat, stroll…all while doing your best to stay in French.

And as always, ALL levels of French welcome—from beginners to advanced and native speakers.

Let’s do a little French takeover of the Old Market!

*Trivia: did you know that the Old Market as we know it today is thanks in large part to a Parisian lawyer? Jeff Koterba can share that with you during our adventure.

Hope to see you!
