Easy - Picnic on the river bank
Answers
Answer:
The fine weather is back, bringing with it an appetite for picnics. During the week, this means a change from the typical lunch in the office, and the opportunity for a breath of fresh air during the day. At the weekend, whether during the day or in the evening, a picnic is the ideal way of spending an enjoyable time among family or friends. So, to help you to prepare your open-air meals, here are a few hints and tips for alfresco dining in the French capital.
In Paris, when the sun shines in spring and summertime, the temperatures climb swiftly. So, to find a cooler spot to enjoy your meal in pleasant surroundings, head to the banks of the Seine. Not only will you enjoy eating out of doors but you will have a view of the most beautiful monuments in Paris. What’s more, in the evening, when night falls and the first stars appear in the sky, you can turn on the romance: what better opportunity for a picnic by candlelight? Among the many sections of the river bank accessible to the public we suggest the Berges de la Seine in the 7th arrondissement and the Canal Saint-Martin in the 10th, where you can enjoy an atmosphere that captures the essence of the capital. You can also try spreading your picnic blanket by the Canal de l’Ourcq in the 19th arrondissement for a traditional open-air country café feel, or along the river bank by the Hôtel de Ville in the 4th arrondissement.
